Oil & Fuel Tracking¶

The Oil and Fuel tabs track consumable usage over time and display trend charts to help identify consumption patterns.

Oil Tab¶

The Oil tab tracks oil additions and consumption.

Adding an Oil Record¶

Click Add Oil Record (owners and pilots).
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).
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.

Fuel Tab¶

The Fuel tab works identically to the Oil tab but tracks fuel consumption.

Adding a Fuel Record¶

Click Add Fuel Record (owners and pilots).
Fill in:
- Date – When you refueled.
- Flight Hours – Aircraft hours at the time.
- Quantity Added – Amount of fuel added in gallons.
- Level After – Fuel level after refueling (optional).
- Type – The fuel grade (e.g., 100LL) (optional).
- Notes – Any additional details (optional).
Click Save.

Fuel Consumption Chart¶

With two or more records, a trend chart displays fuel burn rate in gallons per hour. This helps verify that fuel consumption is within expected parameters for your engine and flight profile.
