Tailcheck turns paper logbooks into answers.

Digitize: upload photos of the logbooks and every entry is typed, organized, and searchable, usually within the hour. Verify: every applicable AD matched to the logbook entry that satisfied it. Forecast: a 12-month cost forecast, item by item. Share: a graded report for your broker, lender, insurer, or buyer.

Fair questions, straight answers.

Searches are private; we never notify owners or sellers. Data freshness is shown per section. The report is free because the federal record is public. A Form 337 documents a major repair or alteration, not necessarily damage history. Not a title or lien search by default — you can add on a complete copy of the FAA aircraft records for $29.
