Part 145 changes, November 2026

NEW

Built for the amended Part 145: task cards record the controlling revision when a customer's program specifies earlier data (145.109(d)), and Quality → Contract maintenance keeps the contracted functions, their FAA approval and the outside sources list for your Flight Standards office (145.217).

Stores & purchasing

2.1

A full parts store: stock by serial and batch, purchase orders with approval limits, receiving inspection before anything is issued, repairs, exchanges and consignment, stock counts and three-way-matched vendor bills. Quantities stay in Avistrata; values post to QuickBooks.

Online parts store

2.1

Sell serviceable parts on your own store with its own web address: photos, condition and live stock, card payments straight to your own Stripe account, shipping or pickup, and paid orders landing in Stores to pick and ship. Stores and web store overview (PDF) →

Multi-currency

2.1

Buy and bill in any currency. Each organization sets its base currency and uses the daily exchange rates or its own. Orders, bills, quotes and invoices carry their rate, exchange gains and losses are booked, and customers pay online in their currency.

Live flight tracking

2.1

Flight Following shows where each dispatched aircraft is, from Flightradar24: altitude, speed and ETA, or where it landed. Overdue alerts say where it was last seen, and check-in offers the tracked takeoff and landing times.

CAMP Due List import

2.1

Export your Due List from CAMP MTX to Excel or CSV and bring it into Maintenance Due as is: item, interval, last complied with, next due and time remaining. Direct CAMP sync is on the way.

Safety management (Part 5)

2.1

A Part 5 checklist, a signed safety policy, a risk register with controls and owners, investigations, management of change, and safety indicators counted from hazard reports and FRATs.

Life-limited parts

2.1

Each part's life against the limit it reaches first, approved extensions shown beside the original limit, back-to-birth history and PDFs, alerts before a limit and dispatch blocked at it. Directors of Maintenance approve every limit and extension.

MFA and single sign-on

2.1

Sign in with an authenticator app, email code or text code, with recovery codes. Admins can require it for their organization, or sign everyone in through Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace or another SAML provider.

Partner API

2.1

A REST API for the systems you already run: keys per partner, field-level permissions, rate limits, allowed IP addresses, a log of every call and signed webhooks when records change.

Move between organizations

2.1

Move an aircraft, a tool or hangar equipment to another organization in a few clicks. You see exactly what moves before you confirm, and it moves in one step.

Flight School edition

2.1

Syllabus and graded lessons, stage checks, endorsements, student and renter booking rules, and rental billing with prepaid accounts. See the edition →

Electronic signatures

2.1

Every sign-off on its own login with role, date and time. Signed records lock, and any later change keeps its approver and reason. How it works →

Compliance you can see coming.

ADs, service bulletins and inspections tracked by hours, landings and calendar. See what is due next and how it was last signed off. Overdue items block dispatch until cleared.

See where your squawks come from.

MRO Insight reads your discrepancy history and shows squawks per month, which systems are getting worse and where a preventive program would pay off. Ask questions about the fleet in plain English.

Budget from your own history.

Estimate the next inspection or overhaul from the work orders you have already closed: parts, labor hours and days down, with the typical and worst case. Set your shop rate and download the result as a PDF.

Plan the hangar, not just the work.

Book aircraft into bays that fit them, with the people, ratings and equipment each job needs. A 13-week forecast shows labor and bay-days against capacity, including items coming due.

Dispatch with the numbers in hand.

Weight and balance, takeoff and landing performance, crew duty limits and the flight release in one workflow. Airworthiness is checked against open squawks and due items before the aircraft is released.

Know who is current before you schedule them.

Type ratings, recurrent training, medicals and currency for every pilot and technician, with expiry warnings before they lapse. Crew scheduling checks qualifications as you assign.

Bill for the work you already logged.

Quotes, estimates and work orders become invoices from the work already recorded. Customers pay online, and invoices and payments go to QuickBooks or a CSV export.
