Fill in: - **Date** -- When the oil was added. - **Flight Hours** -- Aircraft hours at the time. - **Quantity Added** -- Amount of oil added in quarts. - **Level After** -- Oil level after adding (optional). - **Type** -- The oil brand/type used (optional). - **Notes** -- Any additional details (optional). 3. Click **Save**. Oil Consumption Chart ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ When you have two or more oil records, a **trend chart** appears showing oil consumption over time in **hours per quart**. This helps you monitor engine health -- increasing oil consumption can indicate wear. The chart plots each data point against flight hours so you can spot trends over the life of the engine. Oil Records Table ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Below the chart, a table lists all oil records with date, hours, quantity, level after, type, and notes. Owners can click the **pencil** icon to edit a record.
