Setup Airworthiness Directives

• Toggle ADs on/off - Use the switch to track or untrack an AD for this aircraft
• Add new ADs - Create custom AD entries for your aircraft
• Edit AD details - Tap any AD to modify its information
• View AD details - See FAA document numbers, descriptions, and applicable components

Each AD has a toggle switch on the left side:

• Blue (ON) - This AD is being tracked for your aircraft. It will appear on the Aircraft Details screen with compliance status.
• Gray (OFF) - This AD is not tracked. It won't appear in your aircraft summary.

Simply tap the toggle to switch between tracked and untracked. Changes are saved automatically.

Each card displays information about an Airworthiness Directive:

• FAA Document Number - Blue text showing the official AD number (e.g., "2011-10-09")
• Title - The name or subject of the AD
• Description - Preview of the AD details (shown below the title)
• Tags - Colored badges indicating properties:
  • Airframe - Applies to the airframe
  • Powerplant - Applies to engines
  • Propeller - Applies to propellers
  • Verified - AD verified by Logbook
  • Recurring - Has recurring compliance requirements

Tap anywhere on the card (except the toggle) to open the AD editor.

To add a new AD, tap the + Add Airworthiness Directive button at the top of the screen. This opens the Add Airworthiness Directive screen where you can:

• Select from pre-matched ADs - The system uses AI to suggest ADs that may apply to your aircraft based on type certificate data
• Search the FAA database - Find any AD by title, document number, docket number, or aircraft model
• View full AD documents - Read the official FAA text before applying

Once added, the new AD will appear in this list - toggle it on to start tracking compliance.

Tip: Check the pre-matched suggestions first - they're filtered specifically for your aircraft's make, model, and installed components.

Airworthiness Directives are legally enforceable rules issued by the FAA:

• One-time ADs - Require a single compliance action (inspection, repair, or modification)
• Recurring ADs - Require repeated inspections or actions at specified intervals
• Emergency ADs - Require immediate compliance due to safety concerns

ADs are identified by their FAA document number in the format YYYY-MM-DD (e.g., "2011-10-09").

Important: Compliance with applicable ADs is required to maintain aircraft airworthiness. Always verify AD applicability with official FAA sources.

• Sorted by date - ADs are sorted with newest first based on FAA document number
• Track all applicable ADs - Make sure to track every AD that applies to your specific aircraft
• Recurring ADs - Pay special attention to ADs marked as recurring - these require ongoing compliance
• Changes save automatically - Toggle changes are saved immediately, no save button needed
• Permission required - You need Maintainer or higher permission to access this screen
