A new Pilot Manual (PM) has been published. The revision numbering has been changed from an incremental digit to 1st or 2nd half of the year and 2 digit year. The revision now available is 1H22 (1st Half 2022). The intention is to update the PM twice per year regaurdless of how much information has changed.

Much of this update was to address the differences between the old website and our new website. More screenshots were added, a few policy changes, and more aircraft models added to the approved list. All changes are indicated by the changebars in the left margin.
