TopSky PDC Clearance Flag

Vicente Rendo (1629933)

Hello, there!

My name is Vicente, I am part of the tech staff over at Portugal vACC.

We are currently in the process of developing a plugin of our own for EuroScope, which, among other features, needs to be able to set a flight's clearance flag. I could not manage to find any function for such purpose in the header file for EuroScope's plugin API.

I am reaching out because I see that the TopSky plugin is able to set the clearance flag of a flight upon confirmation of it's PDC clearance. It would be of immense help if you could share how the plugin is able to set this flag.

Thanks!

Hi,

the clearance flag is set to the desired state by first setting the scratchpad contents to "CLEA" (set) or "NOTC" (not set), and then setting back the previous scratchpad contents.
