I think I found another bug on cylinder management.

I downloaded three multi cylinder dives and I got again a phanthom default
cylinder not shoving based on my edit/fill sequence. I corrupted the
logbook on two of them :(

I'll report soon the wrong sequence.

I hope fix #622 will solve this.

Bye
