Fleet

Configuration

Manage the base aircraft settings that drive Hobbs handling, defect visibility, and aircraft identity.

Last updated 2026-03-27

The Configuration tab stores the fixed aircraft properties and several settings that directly affect the rest of Fleet.

Basic fields

You can manage:

  • A/C Type
  • Registration
  • ICAO Type Designator
  • Manufacturer
  • Model
  • Internal name
  • Wingspan
  • Length
  • Notes

Hobbs meter type

Choose one of two formats:

  • Decimals, for example 1234,5
  • Minutes, for example 1234:30

This choice affects:

  • flight log input
  • maintenance threshold input
  • how current Hobbs is displayed elsewhere in Fleet

Set this correctly before users start entering operational data.

Insights

The Include A/C with insight statistics switch controls whether the aircraft is included in insight-style reporting. Only enable it when that aircraft should appear in those statistics.

Defect reporting settings

Two switches define how defects are exposed to Aerolync Pilot:

  • Accept defect reporting in Aerolync-Pilot app
  • Show open defects in Aerolync-Pilot app

These settings control whether pilots can submit defects and whether open defects are visible to them.

Aircraft image

You can upload or remove the aircraft image from this tab. The image acts as a visual reference inside the platform.

Practical guidance

  • set the correct Hobbs format first
  • then confirm the defect reporting behavior for that aircraft
  • keep aircraft identity fields consistent so the list and search remain reliable
