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.
