Implemented micro-UX improvements focused on tactile feedback and accessibility:
- Added 'expo-haptics' for selection and success feedback during swipe-to-pin gestures in FlightScreen.
- Implemented 'accessibilityActions' and 'onAccessibilityAction' for flight cards to allow screen reader users to pin/unpin flights.
- Added descriptive 'accessibilityLabel' to flight cards summarizing flight info.
- Localized accessibility labels for icon-only buttons in Notepad and Flight screens.
- Updated package.json and translations to support these changes.

+## 2025-05-14 - Interactive Card Accessibility
+**Learning:** For interactive elements like swipeable cards that lack a standard 'onPress', 'accessibilityRole="button"' can be misleading. Using 'accessibilityActions' provides a clearer experience for screen reader users by exposing custom interactions (like Pin/Unpin) as menu options.
+**Action:** Use 'accessibilityActions' and 'onAccessibilityAction' for non-standard gestures, and ensure a descriptive 'accessibilityLabel' summarizes the component's state.
+
+## 2025-05-14 - Haptic Feedback in Gestures
+**Learning:** Triggering haptic feedback continuously during a 'PanResponder' gesture creates a jittery experience. Using a 'useRef' toggle ensures feedback only occurs exactly once when a threshold is crossed.
+**Action:** Implement a 'hasTriggeredHaptic' ref to guard haptic calls in continuous interaction loops.
