What is Flight Calendar MSFS?Flight Calendar is a calendar-first Microsoft Flight Simulator logbook and replay companion for MSFS 2024 and MSFS 2020 pilots. It organizes flights by day and connects each flight to SimConnect telemetry, SimBrief plan context, route replay, Raw SimVars, Blackbox FDR graphs, and Pilot Profile progression.
Is Flight Calendar an MSFS logbook?Yes. Flight Calendar is designed as an MSFS flight logbook with live and completed Flight Stack cards, route history, replay tools, telemetry review, and a Pilot Profile that grows from completed flights.

What is Blackbox Flight Data Recorder?Blackbox Flight Data Recorder is Flight Calendar’s telemetry review mode. It presents recorder-style graphs for captured values such as altitude, airspeed, vertical speed, fuel, heading, wind, attitude, controls, and selected SimVars with cursors synced to timeline playback.
What will beta pilots be able to test?Beta pilots can help test live capture, completed-flight review, route replay, SimBrief plan context, Raw SimVar watchlists, Blackbox graph syncing, waypoint rendering, and Pilot Profile progression as beta builds evolve.
