Full iOS 27 support • Added the new “Pilot Helpers” tools menu. • Reorganised the Information section for clearer navigation. • Redesigned the iPad Dark Mode appearance and made various design refinements. • Modernised the Duty Toolbox for improved reliability and consistency across different devices and screen sizes. Major internal modernisation Large parts of the app’s internal architecture, data handling and processes have been extensively modernised and optimised for future development. • Modernised the airport data structures, particularly the handling of manually selected time zones. • Improved compatibility with older saved data. • Various additional improvements and bug fixes.

This update includes preparations for iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 and fixes two issues when the “Cabin Crew” setting is selected: • Fixed an issue that prevented switching between Cabin and Flights in the right panel. • Fixed an issue where, after changing the Crew Member setting, the Cabin report time could be used as the Cockpit report time – or vice versa. Thank you for using EASA FTL Calc!

BA Shorthaul Night Duty: Updated for the interim rule changes: • Uses BA Local Time instead of the pilot’s acclimatised time zone. • Added the 9-hour Flying Duty Period limit check. • The end of the preceding duty is displayed, with an indication of the limit for the planned duty finish. • Updated information and FDP details. iPad: • Updated window management for iPadOS 26 and later. • Improved layout and scaling for different iPad and window sizes. General: • Initial compatibility updates for iOS 27. • New Airport Database. • Minor design and presentation improvements.

This update fixes two minor issues: • “Back-to-Back Operation” is no longer unintentionally activated when adding a new duty day. This only affected the last day of a rotation with the home base as resting airport. • The 3 required local nights for east-to-west / west-to-east transitions have been adjusted in line with the EASA FAQ. Both rotations must each have a time-zone difference of at least 4 hours. In addition, the time-zone direction is now handled correctly again.

This update focuses on code modernization, planned reduced rest, additional FDP and rest information, improved warnings, updated airport data, and better overall stability. Planned Reduced Rest Planned reduced rest and reduced rest by Commander’s Discretion have been restructured to reflect EASA regulations more precisely. Warnings, information messages, and displays have been improved for: • Planned reduced rest • Reduced rest by Commander’s Discretion • Minimum rest • Company minimum rest Additional FDP and Rest Details The Flight Duty Period and Next Earliest Reporting information in the duty-day details on the right now include a third row. You can now see the relevant times together at a glance: • Actual times • Minimum or maximum times • Commander's Discretion Airport Database The airport database has been updated. Code Modernization The calculation logic, the import process and the right duty day table have been completely rewritten using modern frameworks. This improves robustness, reliability, stability, and future maintainability through better data and error handling. Fixed issues include: • A crash that could occur when importing an airport that was not available in the database and had no time zone information. • A time zone display issue for a second home base located in a different country than the main home base. • A display bug that could show “Previous Data Incomplete” or “Last Rotation” for non-flight duties in the duty day list of a rotation. Standby and 18 Hours Awake Time Related information has been updated and clarified. BA Night Duty • Added an additional information row in the rotation list for “BA Shorthaul - Check Night Duty”. • Changed the color from the orange warning color to a lilac/blue check color.

• Fixed layout-related crashes in the Manual Cumulative Duty Period Calculator on small displays • Updated airport database • Improved keyboard support for iPad and macOS • Minor fixes and overall stability improvements • Performance and design improvements • Added AIMS/eCrew import for *.txt and *.csv files (beta)

This update brings full iOS 26 support with a refreshed and modernized interface across iPhone and iPad. The import system has been redesigned with a new unified trip selection, and RosterBuster and Calendar imports now support custom date ranges. Time and date handling has been improved for more accurate UTC and local time conversions, and airport selection is now faster and more consistent thanks to a new unified airport data manager. Finally, this release includes numerous bug fixes, performance improvements, and overall stability enhancements, ensuring long-term compatibility and a solid foundation for future iOS versions.

Earlier Cabin Reporting + In-flight Rest Cabin Improved handling and revised calculation logic to support the combined use of “Earlier Cabin Reporting” and “In-flight Rest Cabin”. Earlier Cabin Reporting Extension (up to 1 hour) In rare cases, applying the extension based on the cockpit FDP could result in a shortened cabin FDP. → The calculation now always selects the longer valid FDP. Redesigned Selection (Cockpit / Cabin / Flights) The default iOS selection control was replaced with a custom-designed alternative – more visually consistent and flexible in design. Reworked Airport Selection Smoother animations through custom transitions. Display Zoom Support Navigation bar now adapts better to iOS settings like “Larger Text” and “Display Zoom” for improved accessibility. Bug Fixes A crash could occur when switching between 2 and 3 legs in the “Augmented Cockpit Crew” selection while the table was being updated with animation. A crash could occur if “Rest Not Achieved” was activated very shortly after enabling “Augmented Cabin Crew”. Fixed an issue where “Min Notification at Home Base” in Settings → Delayed Reporting was always reset to 0 due to leftover test code, instead of using the saved value. Updated Airport Database

This release focuses on design and content updates to improve usability and clarity. Content Updates • Over 180 HTML files have been updated. • Rules have been revised, expanded and added to, making it easier to find relevant information and ensuring better clarity and compliance. • All informational texts have been revised for clarity and readability. • Design, colors, and HTML presentation have been refreshed for a cleaner and more modern appearance. Design & Animation Enhancements • Default iOS elements were replaced with custom-designed components. • A custom segmented slider was introduced for key and central selections • Preferences now use touchable feature boxes with round checkmarks instead of switches. • A custom decision alert in the form of an info and selection box was added to provide clearer user prompts. • Full table view reloads were replaced by intelligent partial reloads of only the changed sections to enable smoother animations. New airport database In-Flight Rest for Cockpit and Cabin Input Reworked • Activating or deactivating rest now prompts for confirmation of the corresponding crew member (cockpit ↔ cabin). • Safeguards were added to prevent unexpected behavior during user interactions with the table view (e.g., selecting or deselecting items multiple times). • Custom animations provide smoother transitions during table view updates. On-Block Time Input Reworked • Code modernized for improved reliability and maintainability. • Fixed an issue when selecting “Clear” (On-Block Time) without a previously set time caused errors. Code Optimization • Legacy iOS code and frameworks prior to iOS 15 were removed to unify the codebase. • Special design layouts for smaller iPhone screens (4/4S/5/SE 1st gen) were removed. • Removed the COVID-extended FDP rule for avoiding layovers on long-haul flights. Error Handling and Fixes Shared iCloud Sync (beta) • Log files can now be copied to the clipboard. • Added safeguards against unexpected characters in log files to prevent rare, non-reproducible crashes. • Introduced queued writes for the same reason — to improve error handling and prevent write overload issues. Used Airports List • Added safeguards against unexpected characters to prevent one known non-reproducible crash. General • Additional safeguards were implemented throughout the app to help prevent similar edge cases.

Handling of Imported Actual Times - the Flights tab (Cockpit - Cabin - Flights) previously displayed actual on-block times for informational purposes only - now, modifying the last actual on-block time of a duty day will trigger a recalculation, including an adjustment to the check-out time Built-In Import API - added the option to import existing check-in and check-out times, or - to calculate the check-in and check-out times using the import defaults Reduced Rest - added a distinction between "Below Minimum Rest" and "Below Reduced Rest" - added "Check Commander's Discretion" info - "Below Reduced Rest" is highlighted red - "Below Minimum Rest" is highlighted orange, or green in the case of a "Planned Reduced Rest" (AF) - new preferences entry to activate "Planned Reduced Rest" rules (AF) Travelling Time - added a new preference option to customize how travel time exceeding 30 minutes is handled: - a: It only increases the 10-hour minimum rest period - b: It also increases a minimum rest period of more than 10 hours (caused by the preceding duty) Code Modernization - background activity is reduced to a minimum and handled more efficiently based on the situation - modern iPad scene management for iPadOS has been integrated - adjustments to ensure compatibility with evolving iOS standards and improve overall performance Design - the top navigation bar has become lighter in in dark color scheme to draw more attention to the "swipe down to close" gesture - started to modernize about 180 html files of info text, including optimization of loading and display processes Fixed  Resolved an issue with time zone saving in "Prefs"-"Home Base" caused by an incompatibility between Objective-C and Swift Synchronization Of Preferences Values - enhanced synchronization to reduce unnecessary adjustments - disabled synchronization when the app is in the background to reduce battery consumption during inactivity - added a secondary synchronization method (beta) to make synchronization with a privately distributed MDM-version of the app possible Preparation for Private MDM (Mobile Device Management) Distribution - a separate private app version can be created specifically for distribution within an airline - implemented cross-device synchronization (beta) between the App Store and private versions for testing, subject to MDM permissions - added a new beta entry in "Prefs"-"Maintenance" to monitor synchronization, ensuring reliable performance and easier troubleshooting

Inflight Rest Presets The app saves your 'Inflight Rest' entries for individual city pairs in a preset list. A display problem with iOS 18 has been fixed, the list can now be closed with a swipe downwards. As when entering, the 'Resting Airport' was replaced by the 'FDP End Airport'.

Unknown State Of Acclimatisation - the option of manual selection has been added - when selected manually, an ”Unknown State Of Acclimatisation” is displayed in green, otherwise in standard blue Standby Away From Home Base - removed some restrictions - correction of a display error for standby away from home base without flight duty Shortcuts for entering missing data directly from the left ‘Duty Days’ panel - fiixed display issues with iOS 18 for the iPhone - improved animation behaviour of the iPhone - added further shortcuts for entering missing data - added automatic scrolling of the tables Mac Catalyst - selecting/deselecting entries in lists with the mouse works correctly again New airport list  India, Cambodia, Bangladesh, Laos, Nepal, Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, Malaysia, South Korea, Sweden, Italy, Czech Republic were revised

Fixed Unexpected iOS 18 Problems - on the iPad, some windows such as the airport selection or "Extended Recovery Rests" were no longer displayed wide enough - on the iPhone, the airport list remained invisible if "FDP End" or "Resting Airport" had not yet been entered Improved Simulator Display - more detailed information is available in the "Duty Days" table on the left - added some BA simulator details eMaestro Roster Import - updated default settings for the briefing time if this is missing RosterBuster Import - improved error handling for the response “unauthorized access” Srolling Fix For The Right-Hand Table - scrolling to the end very rarely led to a crash, which could never be reproduced - the scrolling has been completely reprogrammed to probably eliminate the error

BA/BALPA Night Duty added - if the Flying Duty Period overlaps with the night duty period, it is displayed for information purposes only - the night duty period can be defined in settings - BA Flying Duty Period and the time zone to which the pilot is adjusted differ from EASA OPS Commander's Discretion Of Augmented Flight Crew - literally, only an augmented cockpit crew increases the maximum commander's discretion from 2 to 3 hours - this means that the FDP of a non-augmented cabin crew can also be increased by 3 hours - added a new entry in the settings to select whether an 3 hours increase in cabin FDP is triggered by cockpit augmentation or by cabin augmentation - for this purpose, the calculation of the cockpit and cabin FDP had to be further separated and completely restructured Different Cabin Reporting Time - combination with cockpit from standby possible Cumulative Duties - added independent calculation for cabin crew Monthly Duty Time - added independent calculation for cabin crew eMaestro Import - in the event of a major delay, the report date was one day too early CrewConnex Calendar Import added - unfortunately there is only incomplete information about the calendar format

Selection and presentation of 'FDP End Airport' and 'Resting Airport' changed. Warnings have been added if the on-block time or an airport is missing within a rotation. The 2nd home base is now completely independent from the 1st home base. The 1st home base can now be changed for existing rotations. The maximum time difference between cabin and cockpit reporting has been increased to 90 min. A separate cabin calculation has been added for cabin reporting after or more than 60 min before cockpit reporting. Changed the selection of a reporting place other than the resting place. The selection of a 2nd home base has also been changed accordingly. Different commander's discretion for cockpit and cabin are now displayed separately in 2 lines. The automatic selection of the last duty day of a rotation has been removed. Fixed an issue where 'Standby Contact before 07:00 LT' could not be switched off. New airport database. Added summary of annual, monthly and daily duties and cumulative duties.

Sleep Awake Score With GM5 CS FTL.1.205(a)(2) a new concept of "Appropriate Fatigue Risk Management" was created. A calculation of the "Sleep-Wake Score" has been added under the "More" menu item. Minimum Rest At Home Base The special case in which all flight duties were changed to positioning flights was included in the calculation. Code Modernization, minor corrections

Post Flight Duty Presets - the 2 presets for cockpit and cabin were additionally divided into home station and out station - the new 4 presets also replace the old import presets Second Home Base - all time zone restrictions have been removed - it is now possible to choose any airport at any time zone as 2nd home base Import Of eCrew Calendar Entries - improved parsing - unexpected characters such as double spaces and non-ascii letters could prevent the import - time+1 (following day) will be recognized Import Of Overlapping Events - a superfluous warning was removed if no overlapping rotations were selected - due to a very rare, non-reproducible error when overwriting existing rotations, the logic has been changed

Adapted to the changed access permission of the iOS17 calendar. New airport database.

iOS 17 adjustments Delayed Reporting and Different Cabin Reporting - added cabin delayed reporting in case of cockpit standby - added different cabin reporting if delayed reporting was not further amended Import of Positioning after Check Out Time - check out time was taken as 'duty end' - check out time will be replaced by positioning end Import of JSON Data - unfortunately had to be changed to work with iOS 17 - an exporting app or website has to be adapted accordingly

iCloud Backups - manually saved backups are synchronized with other devices - backups are stored and synchronized in "iCloud Drive"/"FTL Calc"/"Saved Backups" - context menus (Haptic Touch) added 18 h Awake Time After Standby At Home - warning if 18 h of awake time may be exceed at commander's discretion - general information and rules - explanation of how the 18 hour clock time is handled by the app - maximum awake time period in the detailed FDP display

New import for calendar entries created by the new AIMS eCrew app. New airport database. New display of local time while entering on block, post flight duty end and duty end after FDP. New context menu for calendar import search terms, other duty title, left 'Rotations' and 'Duty Days' panels. Import of explicit actual on/off block times added. Imported check-in, actual on block, actual off block and check-out times can now be edited. Corrected the displayed time zone in the Disruptive Schedules List (iPad only). The displayed time zone of the home base before entering the reporting time will now be displayed according to the current date. Rules for post flight duty added. For the combination 'FDP - Positioning - Duty Period': Added 'Positioning After FDP' switch and 'FDP Ending Airport' to calculate crossed timezones within a FDP. For the combination 'Standby - Positioning Without FDP': Enabled import and corrected presentation. Fixed a problem when deleting a duty day before or after a 'reserve within a trip'. Code modernization, small improvements in import, handling, design and error handling.

New Airport Database - major DST and time zone changes for Syria, Jordan, Iran and Mexico - airports still under construction added - airport names updated Code modernization for upcoming versions of iOS Fixed iPad bug when selecting home base on very first launch

After closing and relaunching the Preference option "Use Delayed Reporting" was unintentionally set back to "No".

Different Cabin Reporting (former Earlier Cabin Report) - input of later cabin reporting time added - earlier cabin reporting will be handled as an extension to the cockpit FDP - later cabin reporting will be handled independently of the cockpit FDP Delayed Reporting - completely restructured - added a maximum notification time according to GM1 BA eMaestro Import - additional simulator codes BackToBack Operation - is not offered when events overlap or follow each other very closely A display error in the iPad preferences "Reduced Maximum Time Between Extended Recovery Rests" that could cause a crash has been corrected

A possible error in the conversion to local time in the detailed rest time view has been corrected. The display of tappable warnings and info has been changed to a rounded design. Rotations List and Duty Days List - improved handling for duty days with missing date/time - "Missing Data" messages are now tappable and change directly to the corresponding input Cumulative Duties Periods List - scrolling behavior improved when switching between 7/14/28 days - the considered period in the past has been extended from 180 to 365 days - more shorter cumulative duties are displayed (less than 2/4/8 duties in 7/14/28 days are hidden) Disruptive Schedules List - calculation optimized  - scrolling behavior improved - a duplicated entry after returning from the details view was corrected Augmented Cockpit Input - a display problem after selecting and directly deselecting "Inflight Rest" before closing the input window was corrected
