Hangar Mx Log - App Guidance

Hangar Mx Log – App Guidance

Overview

Hangar Mx Log is designed to give aircraft owners a simple, reliable way to track maintenance, inspections, and aircraft time.

The app focuses on answering real-world questions quickly, such as:

• When is my next oil change?

• When is my annual inspection due?

• How many hours remain before an overhaul?

Getting Started

1. Add Your Aircraft

Start by adding your aircraft on the Aircraft screen.

Include:

• Tail number

• Make and model

• Current Hobbs and/or Tach time

2. Update Aircraft Times

Use Update Times to keep your aircraft hours current.

Accurate times ensure maintenance tracking is correct.

3. Add Maintenance Items

Go to Maintenance Items and create items such as:

• Oil Change

• Annual Inspection

• Prop Overhaul

• Engine Overhaul

Each item can be tracked based on:

• Hours (Hobbs, Tach, etc.)

• Calendar Date

• Calendar Month (for annual inspections)

Understanding Maintenance Tracking

Hours-Based Tracking

Used for items like oil changes.

Example:

• Oil Change every 50 hours
  The app calculates remaining hours based on your last logged maintenance event.

Calendar Date Tracking

Used for items with a specific due date.

Example:

• ELT Battery due December 15, 2026

Calendar Month Tracking (Annual Inspection)

Used for annual inspections.

Example:

• Annual due in October

Behavior:

• Due status begins on the first day of the selected month

• Aircraft becomes overdue after the last day of that month

Logging Maintenance Events

When maintenance is completed:

1. Go to Maintenance Events

2. Create a new event

3. Link it to the maintenance item

4. Enter current aircraft times

This updates tracking automatically.
