This is an old revision of the document!
In this section you can add Flight Watch and Journey Log data. Inserted post-flight data to Journey Log allows to generate various kinds of reports in Leon (Crew, OPS, Sales, etc…).
By clicking on FW & JL column Leon opens the tab in the right-hand side filter. If there is no Journey Log added Leon opens FW tab. If there is a Journey Log added (even if it is partly filled in) Leon opens JL tab.
FW contains several fields where you can input details such as:
Date of the time input can be selected for each individual box apart from EET. As soon as you click inside the applicable box Leon will display the date underneath the box in the “ddMMM” format. If there is a need to change the date, simply click on the date displayed below the box and choose the new date from the calendar.
At the bottom of the panel Leon will show information “Last modified by” showing Eurocontrol or SITA and UTC time of the change. For manual changes Leon will show user's name/surname and UTC time of the change.
It is possible to send MVT messages manually using selected movement rule as the template source.
To send MVT message manually you have to follow the below steps:
Movement messages can be imported to Leon if they are being sent to email address mvt@leon.aero and if they are in one of the below formats:
Departure message format
Example of SITA departure message is showed in the screen.
The data included is as follow:
Arrival message format
The data included in SITA arrival message include:
Takeoff Report and Landing Report messages imported to Leon need to be in specific formats. Once such messages are received they will be automatically added to 'Flight Watch' in Leon (BLOFF when Takeoff Report sent and BLON when Landing Report sent). See the example of the flight below.

ACARS movement emails can be sent out in the same way as SATCOM or SITA - to the email address mvt@leon.aero and Leon will update Flight Watch with details input in the mvt email.

It is possible to receive Flight Watch times automatically to Leon from Eurocontrol servers.
Eurocontrol is an international organisation working to achieve safe and seamless air traffic management across Europe. Eurocontrol works with national authorities, air navigation service providers, civil and military airspace users, airports, and other organisations. Its activities involve all gate-to-gate air navigation service operations: strategic and tactical flow management, controller training, regional control of airspace, safety-proofed technologies and procedures, and collection of air navigation charges. For more information, please visit Eurocontrol website.
In order to integrate with Eurocontrol, you have to open a section Integrations, click ENABLE button, then switch the Status to ON and save changes.
If the Operator ICAO code in the section Settings > General Settings tab is the same as registered with Eurocontrol, the integration will be completed upon saving changes. If the ICAO code in Leon doesn't match the one registered with Eurocontrol, you will see an error message saying “Operator ICAO not recognized by Eurocontrol”.
When the integration is completed, Flight Watch in Leon will start receiving flight times from Eurocontrol servers. You will recognise them by opening a Flight Watch and hovering the mouse over the time value, as shown in the screenshot above. Eurocontrol will only send Takeoff, EET, ETA and Landing times plus PAX number.
You can add flight times to the Journey Log from the scratch or you can copy them from FW (by clicking the blue button). All data inserted to JL is then used in reports.
Apart from the obvious fields in JL such as Date, ADEP, ADES, BLOFF, T/O, LDG and BLON - there are also other available fields split into 2 sections:
Mandatory JL fields
Optional JL fields
If the JL is inserted by mistake, for example for the future flight, it is possible to delete it. To delete JL you need to click on icon located in the top-right corner of the 'JL' tab. There are 3 options available:
It is now possible to add Fuel data in litres or US gallons in the Journey Log panel.
In a section Settings > Fleet, edit the aircraft and set up a default fuel unit as L or US Gal
Once the default fuel unit is set up, you can add fuel in litres or US gallons in the Journey Log panel (as on screenshot below) - the default fuel unit applies to: Block fuel, Used fuel, Remaining fuel and Uplift.
The same defined fuel unit shows in the panel (suitable for adding JL data for multiple sector trip)
We also added Fuel density (kg/L) in the JL section. This field is optional and can be activated in Settings > Flight Editing > Journey Log section.
The default Fuel density values are as per below:
The value is selected by default in the JL based on fuel type set in Settings > Fleet > OPS tab. This field allows amending the density of the fuel with the values between 0 and 1.
The density value is automatically added when creating new refueling. The density value reacts to the 'Fuel type' changes in the 'New Refueling'.
All the reports that take fuel into consideration such as: CO2 emission, Aircraft Flights, Network Departures, columns in Report Wizard will recalculate with accordance to this density value.
If you want to add Journey Log to multiple sectors on one screen, click button at the bottom of OPS panel and fill in a new open window (see screenshot on the right).
The 'Edit trip JL' window is split into 2 sections“
To delete a journey log click X icon (between the trash icon and the status dot). Leon will show a blank JL page. Once it's saved, in a column FW & JL instead of a dot Leon will show 'X'. To bring a journey log page back click , however, Leon will NOT restore previous entrances - it will only restore JL fields to be filled in again.
