PPGLog is the flight logbook and maintenance tracker built for paramotor (PPG) pilots — automatic, native, and beautiful.

After landing, just confirm the flight with a tap. ENGINE & WING HOURS, TRACKED FOR YOU Every confirmed flight updates your engine hours and your wing hours separately. See exactly how long until the next overhaul. NEVER MISS A DEADLINE Engine overhaul (2‑stroke or 4‑stroke), reserve parachute repack, wing checks and insurance — PPGLog tracks them and reminds you in time.
