ROADMAP
All 15 Private Pilot communication chapters are part of v1.
Squawk's first release includes the full 15-chapter Private Pilot VFR communication core. The roadmap shows what is already built, what is being built now, and what is still queued inside that v1 scope.
Use the overview to scan scope and status quickly, then jump into any chapter group for the chapter-by-chapter breakdown.
All 15 Private Pilot communication chapters.
The first release covers the full Private Pilot VFR communication core instead of a partial starter set.
Chapters 1-5 are built. Chapter 6 is in progress.
Progress stays public chapter by chapter instead of hiding unfinished work behind a vague launch promise.
Additional lightweight practice can come later.
Quick missions, skill drills, and other lightweight practice modes stay separate from the core v1 release.
