Must have app!

We’ve traditionally used a whiteboard in the hanger to list all our maintenance due dates. BetterPlane has put all that information and more at our fingertips. The record keeping and reminders are superb. It took only an hour or two to load 20 years of maintenance logs ( this is entirely optional).

Great app!

Nice upgrade to my Logbooks!

I was super excited to find this since I’d been using a different tool that didn’t have a way to backup my logbooks. The fact that I’m also able to set up tracking items was just icing on the cake. So far it’s been really easy to use, and it was a nice surprise that I can backup my docs along side everything as well! Really nice to have everything in one app. A+!

First Impressions 👍🏻

Jason has clearly put a tremendous amount of work into this project, and it truly shows in the product. Within the first 10 minutes of use, I was able to import, transcribe, and collate nearly a dozen log pages-something that would have easily taken me several hours to do manually.
Not only can I now search through 50-year-old handwritten documents, but the program also automatically extracts critical data such as ADs and Airman numbers, while providing compliance status and due-date information.
The user interface is clean and pleasant, and the overall workflow is intuitive and efficient. !!Give it a try!!

Giving my Logbooks new life?

The onboarding is seamless and logging just add effortless. Pretty cool tech and super useful!

The text alerts are great, but I was really surprised at how well it pulled out the details (even the ADs) on the old handwritten pages.

Y'all should check it out!
