SimRoster has a new look

v1.2 is a full visual refresh. Boarding-pass flight cards, a real paper logbook, your crew ID, and a PIREP form that no longer gets in your way.

v1.2 is the biggest visual update we've shipped. Almost every screen you open every day has changed. Not to look different for the sake of it, but to feel more like the airline experience we're simulating. Here's everything that's new.

Flight cards that read like a boarding pass

The flight cards on Home and on the Flights tab have been completely redesigned. They now look and feel like a real airline boarding pass.

Flight cards
  • The flight number is now large and front-and-center. DL2851. UA1524. AA301. You see it immediately.
  • The flight date appears at the top of every card, so you always know when the flight is at a glance.
  • Departure and arrival times are large and positioned directly below each airport code, exactly like a ticket. The times always align regardless of how long the city name is.
  • The aircraft type and registration are shown on every card. You know what you're flying before you even open the flight.
  • The bottom of each card now says "See flight details" instead of just an arrow.

Your crew ID card

The Home screen now opens with your Crew Member Certificate. It's a digital ID card that shows your name, rank, base airport, employee number, and airline logo. It's the first thing a real-world crew member would carry. It's also the first thing you'll see in SimRoster from now on.

A logbook that looks like a real logbook

The old logbook was a basic table. It was functional, but it looked like a spreadsheet. In v1.2, the logbook has been completely redesigned to look and feel like a real paper pilot logbook, the kind you'd find in a cockpit bag.

  • Columns are grouped exactly like a real FAA or EASA paper logbook: Route, Times, Aircraft, Pilot Function, Conditions, Block Hours, and Remarks.
  • The layout uses a classic sage-green paper style with fine grid lines and proper column spans.
  • Page totals and running totals to date appear at the bottom of every page, just like a physical logbook.
  • Day versus night hours are automatically split into the correct columns.

If you've ever filled out a real pilot logbook, this will feel immediately familiar.

New logbook

Fly first, report after. No extra step.

We removed the "Accept" button. Your roster is ready to fly as soon as you see it. Open the flight, fly in the sim, then file your report. No Accept button, no pending state. Just your schedule.

A simpler flight report

Filing a report after a flight should feel quick, not like a long form.

PIREP form
  • Times use a simple time picker. Your scheduled times are already filled in. Adjust only if you need to.
  • Block time is calculated automatically from those times.
  • Extra details (fuel, weather, landings, crew role, notes) are hidden behind an "Add flight details (optional)" toggle. The main form is just the essentials.
  • The aircraft picker now opens cleanly above everything else on the page, without clipping.

Clearer bottom navigation

The bottom navigation bar now has a solid white background. No more text bleeding through the page content while you scroll.

A smarter calendar

The calendar has been rebuilt from the ground up. It now has three views: Monthly, Weekly, and Daily.

New calendar
  • Monthly view works just like before, but instead of listing all your flights below the grid, you tap a day to see what’s on. No clutter, no duplication.
  • Weekly view shows seven days side by side so you can scan your upcoming week at a glance.
  • Daily view shows one day at a time with a big date header and all flights for that day.

The Flights tab is for managing your roster. The calendar is for seeing it in time. They no longer do the same thing twice.


v1.2 is live now. Every part of the daily flow has been improved: opening a flight, checking your schedule, filing a report, and reviewing your logbook.
