...operate missions?

Note. If you are flying your chosen aircraft for the first time please complete a Check Flight. Read about it above.

Find the details (Elevations, VORs, NDBs, ILS, ATIS, etc.) of departing and arriving airports. It is important to know the locations of VOR/NDB beacons, relative to the destination runway.

Enable FS 'Log Book' to keep a track of your flying.

...calculate flying time?

Before take-off set the FS (Flight Simulator) clock to your missions departure time.

Record take-off and landing times as in the FS clock. Soon after landing record data requested in the Completed Mission Report page and exit FS. Then your 'Log Book' screen with your total time spent in FS will appear. From that total time reduce the time that you used for flight preparations, data recording, etc. Balance is the actual flying time.

Repeat this for each mission sector.
