Booking

The settings found in the Booking section are all related to how you want FlightLogger's booking tool to look and work on your organization's account.

Booking zoom

Set the booking zoom slider to define the default time span shown on the booking page.

The time span can always be manually adjusted directly from the booking page by each user, and it can be reverted to the selected default timeframe via the button next to the slider.
