DatCon Dash! Pilot Logbook

Read full description

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.

Plans, prices and length of subscription: β€’ Trip360 Pro Weekly β€” $6.99 per week, renews weekly β€’ Trip360 Pro Annual β€” $39.99 per year, renews yearly β€’ Trip360 Annual Offer β€” $4.99 per year, discounted offer Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. A subscription renews automatically at the same price and period unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your Apple Account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel your subscription in Settings > your name > Subscriptions on your device after purchase. Any unused part of a free trial, where one is offered, is forfeited when you buy a subscription. Prices are shown in your local currency on the purchase screen. LOCATION AND BATTERY Trip360 needs location access, including in the background, so a drive can be recorded from the moment you set off to the moment you park β€” even with the screen locked. Continued use of GPS in the background can reduce battery life. Tracking can be turned off at any time in Settings, and your drives stay yours. DRIVE SAFELY Obey speed limits and local laws, and never handle your phone while driving. No stat is worth your safety or anyone else's.
