Extension summary

The Foreflight flight planning website allows users to plan a flight and displays a Navigation Log showing route of flight, headings, distances, etc. However, it also shows unnecessary information (in my opinion for VFR flights) that clutters the nav log and makes it hard to read in-flight.

This extension reformats the HTML in the nav log, removing unnecessary columns and adding blank rows between existing rows to allow easier copying/pasting into an Excel or Google Sheets Nav Log spreadsheet.

This is still not turn-key. Some geek work is required, but it's faster than working with the original log.

  1. Log into your Foreflight account and navigate to Flights and display your NavLog.
  2. Right-Click in the NavLog and choose "View Frame Source"
  3. In the browser address bar, delete this text from the beginning of the URL: "view-source:" and hit Return. Now the NavLog fills the page.
  4. Click the Format NavLog Icon, then the Format NavLog Button.
  5. The NavLog should now be reformatted with only the following columns: Waypoint HDG LEG (distance) LEG (time)
