Why Share Aircraft?

Sharing aircraft access enables collaboration:

• Co-Owners - Partners can view and log their own flights and maintenance
• Mechanics - A&Ps can log maintenance and sign off entries
• Flight Schools - Instructors and students can access shared fleet aircraft
• Management Companies - Oversee aircraft they manage for owners
• Family Members - Keep everyone informed about aircraft status

• Has members with different permission levels

2. Link it to your aircraft with Maintain permissions
3. Invite the mechanic(s)
4. They can log maintenance without modifying aircraft settings

Flight School Fleet

Best Practices

• Grant minimum necessary permissions - Give Maintain only to those who need it
• Review group membership regularly - Remove people who no longer need access
• Communicate with your team - Use Conversations for squawks and coordination
