Searching and Filtering

For larger fleets, use search to find specific aircraft:

Understanding Status at a Glance

Each aircraft card shows three status dots:

  • Top dot - Airworthiness Directives (ADs)
  • Bottom-left dot - Inspections
  • Bottom-right dot - Maintenance items

Status colors:

  • Green - All items current
  • Yellow - Something coming due soon
  • Red - Overdue—action required
  • Purple - Status unknown (no tracking configured)

This lets you quickly scan your fleet and identify which aircraft need attention.

Adding More Aircraft

  1. Go to the Aircraft List
  2. Tap the + button
  3. Follow the FAA Wizard or enter details manually

Aircraft You Have Access To

The Aircraft List shows all aircraft you have access to:

  • Your Aircraft - Aircraft you created or own
  • Shared Aircraft - Aircraft shared with you by other users
  • Group Aircraft - Aircraft from groups you've joined

Your permission level for each aircraft determines what actions you can take (view, log flights, log maintenance, etc.).

Organizing a Large Fleet

Tips for managing many aircraft:

  • Use Favorites strategically - Pin aircraft that need immediate attention or frequent use
  • Check status colors daily - Yellow and red dots indicate action items
  • Use consistent naming - Helps when searching
  • Organize by Groups - Create groups for different fleets or locations
Pattern is full: For flight schools and large fleets, consider using groups to organize aircraft by location, type, or purpose. See Share with Team for more on groups.
