1967 Cessna 172H
Its own checklists, word for word, run in flow on the ramp.
From this airplane's weighing. Out of limits, it refuses.
Demo load on this airplane's own weighing (1,422.3 lb at 37.4 in). Reference only, not the approved flight manual.
A schedule that can't be double-booked. Check in, and the logbook fills itself.
13:00 to 15:00 overlaps 11:00 to 14:00, so the database refuses it.
Squawks pinned where they are, with countdowns to the 100-hour and annual.
Check-in writes the charge from Hobbs or Tach. Every member gets a statement.
Students, lessons and endorsements, kept on the record.
Example club, student and charge figures. Reference only, not the approved flight manual.
Every checklist, limitation and table is transcribed from that tail's own manual, then held to its printed values by tests. Run the checklist on the ramp; read a speed with its source beside it.
Tap each item as you do it.

Source: 1967 Cessna 172H Owner's Manual, airspeed limitations (CAS) and operating speeds. Arcs drawn to scale from the same values.
Squawks on the part they're about, the load where it sits, takeoff on a real runway and glide over the real ground. The same 3D views the app opens for every tail with a model.
Every squawk pins to the part it's about: open in olive, grounding in red. The mechanic, the renter and the next pilot see the same airplane.
Example squawks on this 172H. Drag to turn it; tap a pin.

Aircraft down the side, the day across. Overlaps are refused by the database itself, so two members can't win the same hour from two phones.
For the treasurer: the flight is billed from Hobbs or Tach at that aircraft's rate the moment it's checked in, paid by card or from prepaid block hours, and every member gets a statement you can export.
Charged to the card on file through Stripe at check-in, with a $11.37 card service fee as its own line.
