What changed on RunupLab

One line per change a visitor can see, newest first, dated the day it went live. Owner-only tools and internal plumbing are left out.

  1. The inoperative-equipment sim gained a scenario mode — six examiner prompts where you make the call before the verdict shows — plus flaps, the ELT exceptions, who may deactivate an item, and what happens at the next inspection; the printable sheet and PDF carry the same additions. See it

  2. The windsock, ground-reference and traffic-pattern sims now announce what they show to screen readers, and the 3D scenes no longer trap vertical scrolling on a phone. See it

  3. First loads got lighter: the sign-in code left the shared page shell, so every public page ships less JavaScript.

  4. A For CFIs page lists what an instructor can hand a student today, and every sim, tool, sheet and glossary page ends with a next step into the free question bank. See it

  5. Sign-up and sign-in were rewritten, a practice exam can be printed as a report, and the site got proper not-found and error pages. See it

  6. The glossary grew two sources: the 14 CFR § 1.1 definitions on one page and the Pilot's Handbook glossary letter by letter, both verbatim with flashcard decks. See it

  7. Questions drawn from Airplane Flying Handbook chapters 1 through 8 joined the study bank. See it

  8. Every printable sheet prints cleanly with a page footer, no browser date or URL lines, and a badge on each row saying where its wording comes from. See it

  9. The FAA Pilot/Controller Glossary, reproduced verbatim by letter, with flashcard decks for the Private, Instrument, Commercial and CFI checkrides. See it

  10. Seven more printable sheets, including ATC phraseology, Flight Service, NTSB 830, aeromedical, aircraft documents and inspections, and METAR/TAF decoding, plus a pre-solo knowledge test. See it

  11. RunupLab opened to the public. The sims, tools, sheets and the free readiness test need no account. See it

  12. The private pilot guide draft v0.3 preview: a visible FAR/AIM reference on every block, a MOSAIC sport-pilot section, and an acronyms appendix. See it

  13. The sectional explorer and quiz moved to the chart edition effective 2026-09-03. See it

  14. The Pilot's Handbook question bank went live with its figures, a chapter catalog, and answers cited to the handbook. See it

  15. Study accounts gained exam-date pacing and a due-for-review drill. See it

  16. Study accounts: a dashboard, timed practice exams, a missed-question drill, and a readiness view. See it

  17. Accounts and the study catalog arrived. See it
