Report Crew Information

Explanation

This activity is used to report information on the crew that worked a flight. This can be both flight crew and in-flight crew, where in-flight crew refers to any crew member who is not directly involved with flying the aircraft. For each person, the role that he or she had on the flight as well as the amount of time spent on the different types of flight (e.g., instrument flight, night flight, simulator) should be recorded.

Prerequisites

• A valid person must have been defined in IFS/Enterprise.
• A valid person category must have been defined in basic data.
• If operational tasks are to be reported for a crew member, one or more valid operational task types must have been defined in basic data.
• If crew time specifications are to be reported for a crew member, one or more valid crew time types must have been defined in basic data.
• The flight log must be in the Open status.

System Effects

As a result of this activity, information on the flight and in-flight crew members, their roles, the type of operational tasks performed by each member on the flight and how much time was spent on different time types is reported on the flight log.
