Flightdocs is a cloud-based solution for maintenance tracking, inventory management and flight operations.

Description

Flightdocs is a cloud-based solution for maintenance tracking, inventory management and flight operations.

FL3XX offers seamless integration with Flightdocs covering the following key functionalities to make your operations faster and more productive:

  1. Automatic transmission of actual times and cycles after each post-flight is submitted and validated

Use

To activate this integration, please contact both Flightdocs and FL3XX. The integration has to be set on both sides.

At FL3XX, please email us at sales@fl3xx.com. Please note that this is a subscription service. Monthly fees may apply.

At Flightdocs, contact your usual point of contact and ask for enabling the integration with FL3XX.

If the Flightdocs integration is enabled for the operator both in Flightdocs and FL3XX, you can select particular aircraft for data transmission with Flightdocs.

Once the flight is completed, the post-flight report filed and validated by setting the OK (green) status in Dispatch, FL3XX automatically forwards the total cycles and hours to Flightdocs for all applicable aircraft systems (airframe, engines, APU, etc.) as set in Aircraft.

You don't need to worry about any later updates or edits in any flight legs, e.g. in case of data corrections. FL3XX will notice and resend new corrected values any time you make any changes.

  3. Activate Sync with Flightdocs for desired systems.
    - May you not see the green OK immediately, please wait. It may take a while.
