Hangar Snap is built for A&P mechanics, IAs, and aircraft owners tired of digging through scattered government websites for a single AD or CFR section. Search, browse, and organize FAA Airworthiness Directives, 14 CFR, Type Certificate Data Sheets, and Advisory Circulars for the US, plus EASA regulations, Certification Specifications, and Part-66 for Europe, all in one clean app, no internet connection required once it's on your device. CHOOSE YOUR AUTHORITY Pick FAA (US) or EASA (EU) on first launch, or switch anytime in Settings. Both datasets are bundled on-device, so switching regions never requires a download. SEARCH THAT WORKS THE WAY YOU DO - 9,400+ Airworthiness Directives, searchable by AD number, Make/Model, ATA chapter, 14 CFR citation, or full text - 1,000+ 14 CFR sections and 507 EASA regulations, fully browsable offline - Type Certificate Data Sheets for both regions; FAA TCDS cross-reference directly to applicable ADs - 770+ FAA Advisory Circulars, plus EASA AMC and GM embedded inline with each regulation BUILT FOR THE WORKFLOW, NOT JUST THE LOOKUP - A folder for each tail number, with applicable ADs auto-matched to your aircraft so you can check off compliance as you go - Favorites and notes that stay with you across every session - PDF or CSV export for any folder or favorites list, ready for the customer file or your shop's records - Bluebook-style legal citation copying for return-to-service logs NO ACCOUNT.
