Use those two photos as the card's photos. CATALOG & TRACK Browse the full catalog of pilot trading cards across multiple airlines and airports. Mark cards as collected by taking photos, log the condition, and track your progress toward completing each collection. Own multiple copies? Track each condition separately. MARK AS OWNED Already have a card but haven't photographed it yet? Mark it as owned to track your collection without photos. Free and unlimited for every card in the catalog. SNAP & STORE Photograph the front and back of every card in your collection. Your photos are stored locally and synced across all your devices with iCloud. STAY ORGANIZED Add notes, record where you collected each card, mark favorites, add cards to your wishlist, and sort your binder the way you like it.
