Maintenance Tracking#
Each aircraft has an Aircraft Info card (open it from an aircraft’s entry in Settings) showing Hobbs/tach timers and a maintenance schedule.
Hobbs and tach timers#
Rather than requiring someone to update a timer reading constantly, Wingbeat stores one recorded value + timestamp per timer and estimates the current reading using flight time logged since, scaled by a per-aircraft correction factor (defaults to 1.0 — set it if the timer runs faster or slower than wall-clock flight time).
Maintenance schedule#
Each item is due on one of:
- Hobbs hours — an interval added to the last-done Hobbs value
- Tach hours — same, on the tach value
- Calendar — a fixed due date
Items show as upcoming, due soon (within ~10% of the interval), or overdue.
Alerts feed#
The dashboard’s alerts feed surfaces, across the whole fleet:
- Flights in the last 30 days missing an aircraft and/or pilot assignment
- Maintenance items due soon or overdue, for active aircraft only
Alerts link directly to the flight or aircraft they concern.
