Flight Time Recorder controls and completed times on iPad

Integrated flight panel

The essentials, visible at a glance.

Local and Zulu time, GPS altitude, ground speed, route references and active timers share one readable display. It is useful context, not a replacement for certified instruments or official navigation sources.

Why Flight Time Recorder

Keep flying. Let the app remember the moments.

Your attention belongs on the flight. Flight Time Recorder reduces the small interruptions involved in writing down times, organizing events and rebuilding the story after landing.

01

Capture without breaking your flow

When Auto Flight Detect is active, available device data can support the recording of major flight transitions. You do not have to stop and write every time as it happens. You remain responsible for reviewing and correcting the final record.

02

From four events to useful times

Start Engine, Take off, Landing and Stop Engine become engine time, airborne time and total flight time. The calculations are ready when you need to complete your logbook.

03

Quick control from your wrist

Apple Watch places the essential flight events within easy reach and sends them to the linked device, helping you interact with the record with fewer steps.

04

A clearer memory after landing

Aircraft, route, event times, track and notes remain together, so you can review the flight while the details are still fresh.

Less time reconstructing the flight. More confidence in the record.

Logbook and replay

The flight ends. The story stays.

Each record keeps the aircraft, route, event times and notes together. Revisit a completed flight on the map, inspect its track and recall the details while they are still fresh.

Auto Flight Detect

Helpful when your hands are busy.

Using available device data, automatic detection can support the recording of major flight transitions. You remain in control and can review or correct the final times.

Real flight in action

Before you fly

A calm, consistent sequence.

Interactive checklists keep each item clear and easy to confirm. Preflight details can be prepared before engine start, so the flight begins with the right information.

Flight events on your wrist

A quick glance. A decisive tap.

Start Engine, Take off, Landing and Stop Engine stay within easy reach. Apple Watch sends these events to the linked device, helping your flight timeline move with you.

Practice without leaving the ground
