One 28-day Panama cycle from a Monday: two day weeks, then two night weeks.

Panama is the slow-rotation cousin of Pitman: the same 2-2-3 on/off pattern, but the crew works two weeks of days and then two weeks of nights across a 28-day cycle. That month-long flip never fits a weekly repeat rule, so hand-typed versions drift.

This template describes the whole cycle once. Set the start date to the first day of the current cycle on the posted roster, then check the preview, especially that the day-to-night flip lands on the right week.

Subscribed times follow one crew. If your crew starts on a different day, shift the start date by the offset shown on your roster. The 2-2-3 on/off pattern is identical for every crew.

Publish and the output is a calendar link. Subscribe on a phone, send the same link home, and every on-duty day plus the long weekends show up automatically.
