Understanding your hangar

Each aircraft has its own identity and technical history.

An individual aircraft record

Your hangar represents aircraft you operate, with individual registrations and accumulated history. Two aircraft of the same model can have different hours, cycles, defects and maintenance needs.

What to review before flying

Registration, family and variant.
Recorded location and technical condition.
Open defects and maintenance work.
Upcoming or overdue maintenance and airworthiness requirements where available.

History matters

A new simulator session does not mean the online aircraft is new. Review the existing aircraft record before adding another one with a similar name or livery.

A larger fleet

Use the fleet views to compare aircraft and identify those needing attention. Select a specific aircraft before acting on a defect or starting an intervention.
