Airbox vs DatCon Dash! Pilot Logbook

Airbox situational awareness app. • Operate effectively with colleagues • Navigation • Information sharing • Map annotation.

DatCon Dash! is the flight logbook built for helicopter pilots. Tap ENGINE START as the engine runs: the app notes the time and where you are, then opens the camera for the datcon. Zoom in, type the digits you see, and fly. At shutdown, tap ENGINE OFF and do the same. That's the entry done, whether you landed at an airfield or a private site. Your first flight needs no setup at all: just type the registration when asked, and add the rest later. Forgot the app on a flight? Add it afterwards in a few taps.
