Add New Aircraft

MyLog differs from other logbook applications with its aircraft management. It is named Collobrative Aircraft Database and it is a database of aircrafts that are added by MyLog users. You can add your aircraft to this database and use it in your logs. You can also use aircrafts that are added by other users. So every user can benefit from other users' aircrafts.

note

Aircraft added by a user should be approved by MyLog team before it can be used by other users. This is to prevent inaccuracy, spam and abuse.

There are two ways to add to aircraft. You can add aircraft while adding a log or you can add aircraft from Aircraft List.
