Hi

I have some questions about flight time logging in the logbook:

To calculate the night time of a certain position, does anyone have a freeware tool for Windows Mobile PocketPC?
Ideal would be a tool, where you enter a 3 or 4 letter code of an airport and get the civil dawn and dusk times for a specific date.
Or how do you log your night times in the logbook? At the moment I use the following Homepage to calculate these times: http://www.verysecurelinux.com/sunsetexp.html But I would like to calculate these times during a flight and the best solution I think would be a tool for Pocket PC.

I'm flying in a JAR country. Can I log take-offs and landings in a Multi Pilot Aeroplane (MPA) only, if I'm pilot flying oder also as pilot non flying? Where are these rules documented?

Thanks for your help in advance.

JAR–FCL 1.080 Recording of flight time.
As for your night problem I've never seen a piece of software that could tell exactly when one crossed into or out of the night so approximation / guesswork will have to do.
Landings appear not to be a JAR logging item.
