Read full description

Aircraft Maintenance Assist is the everyday companion for aircraft maintenance technicians. Record your daily work as task cards, organised by aircraft, operator and ATA chapter, and build a lasting, portable record of your experience. Tap any task link to open its manual document beside it, or browse your aircraft's manuals. YOUR WORK, RECORDED • Scan paperwork with the camera — edges, perspective and shadows are corrected for you — or import a PDF or photo. • On-device text recognition finds its title, ATA chapter, aircraft type, registration and operator. • Edit any detail, and add your own remarks. FIND IT IN THE MANUAL • With your own Airbus airnavX, MyBoeingFleet or COMAC FLYWIN account, tap a task link on a card — a task number, page block or S1000D data module — and the manual document opens beside it. • Recognises AMM, AIPC, IPC, FIM, TSM, SSM, ASM, WDM, AWM, SRM and MPP references, in ATA and S1000D form. • Links inside a manual are tappable too, so you can follow a reference chain. • Browse your aircraft's whole manual tree in the Manuals tab. • Everything else works without any account. YOUR EXPERIENCE, DEMONSTRATED • The Experience tab totals your cards by aircraft type, operator, ATA chapter, month and year. • Cross-tabulate rows and columns as you need, then save a report image to Photos. YOURS, AND PRIVATE • Cards stay on your device, or in your own iCloud Drive — switch any time and the app moves your files. • No server, no analytics, no tracking, no ads. • No in-app purchases or subscription. • Sign-in happens on the provider's own page. BUILT FOR THE JOB • One app for iPhone, iPad and Mac. • Works offline, except manual lookup. Aircraft Maintenance Assist is an independent tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Airbus, Boeing or COMAC. Access to any manufacturer's data requires your own authorised account with that provider, which enforces all permissions.
