Finding Flying Fields

Tap Fields in the bottom navigation bar. You can toggle between two views using the icons at the top right:

• List View — A scrollable list of all fields, sorted by distance from your current location.
• Map View — An interactive map showing field markers. Tap a marker to see field details.

Tap on any field to open its detail screen. Each field page displays comprehensive information:

• Name & Location — Full name and GPS coordinates with a directions button.
• Contact Info — Phone number, email address, and website (where available).
• Visitor Policy — Whether the field is open to visitors, members-only, or requires prior contact.
• Aircraft Types — The 9 aircraft categories supported at the field.
• Hazard Notes — Any known hazards or safety information for the field.

SkySpot SA tracks 9 aircraft type categories for each field. These appear as chips on the field detail screen:

Only aircraft types that are confirmed at the field are shown. If you think a type is missing, you can suggest corrections (see Step 5).

Tap "I'm Flying Here" on any field detail screen to check in. Your check-in appears as a gold marker on the map, letting nearby pilots know you're active. You earn 5 XP per check-in (or 8 XP with a note), up to 3 check-ins per day.

After checking in, you can help improve existing field data by suggesting corrections. This is for updating details on fields already in the directory, not for adding new registered fields. To submit a correction, your account must meet these requirements:

• Account at least 7 days old
• At least 100 XP earned

Tap "Suggest aircraft types" or the enrichment card on the field detail screen to submit your corrections. A moderator will review and approve or reject each suggestion.
