I've been looking for a way to decode the EVO pilot file. I read an earlier post and stumbled upon the decrypting program and a C structure describing the format of the EV pilot file. I created a template based on that structure, but the numbers don't line up.

The problem is in the fields for 8 currently-running missions. The C code says that the deadline date is in DateTimeRec format. According to Apple's latest universal interfaces, DateTimeRec is:

struct DateTimeRec {
short year;
short month;
short day;
short hour;
short minute;
short second;
short dayOfWeek;
};

This, however, doesn't seem to work. Does the EVO pilot file use something other than a DateTimeRec, or is the latest definition wrong? Or am I doing this all wrong? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I can't quite figure it out myself.
