CASA AD Tracker (Australia)
Track CASA airworthiness directives per aircraft — applicability, method, last complied and next due, with overdue badges.
The Australian wrinkle is the transition: legacy CASA ADs coexist with adopted state-of-design directives, and compliance research must cover both eras.

⚠️ Not for operational decisions. This is a record-keeping and planning aid only — not certified avionics, not a source of regulatory truth. Always verify against official sources (CASA) and your operator's approved documents before flying.
Free casa ad tracker (australia): every applicable directive with method, dates and hour basis on one badge-watched board — built for the CASA system's specific structure.
About CASA AD Tracker (Australia)
Every registry has its own directive plumbing, and CASA's is specific: casa moved to automatically adopting state-of-design ads for most foreign types, retaining its own ad-making for australian types and unique-to-australia issues; the historic ad/[type] series still applies where current. Layer in the practical wrinkle — the australian wrinkle is the transition: legacy casa ads coexist with adopted state-of-design directives, and compliance research must cover both eras — and the case for a maintained compliance board makes itself. Enter each directive with method and dates; badges go amber 30 days out; the export is the reconciled list your inspector, CAMO or buyer asks for first.

Frequently asked questions
How does the CASA AD system work structurally?+
CASA moved to automatically adopting state-of-design ADs for most foreign types, retaining its own AD-making for Australian types and unique-to-Australia issues; the historic AD/[type] series still applies where current. For tracking purposes the implication is the layering: the Australian wrinkle is the transition: legacy CASA ADs coexist with adopted state-of-design directives, and compliance research must cover both eras. Your reconciled list must reflect every applicable layer, which is why this board's reference field is free-form — FAA-style numbers, CASA references and adopted-directive citations all coexist on one list.
Who is legally responsible for AD compliance?+
The owner/operator — mechanics and inspectors verify and certify compliance at inspections, but the continuous obligation between inspections sits with whoever operates the aircraft. That's the gap this board covers: repetitive directives whose intervals land between annuals are the owner's watch, and 'my mechanic tracks that' is exactly the assumption that produces overdue findings.
What happens to my entries if I clear my browser?+
Clearing site data deletes locally stored entries — that's the price of a genuinely private, server-free design. Protect yourself with the one-click CSV download before any cleanup, OS reinstall or device change: re-importing history later beats reconstructing it from memory.
How do I back up or print these records?+
Use the Export CSV button below the table: it downloads your full directive compliance list as a spreadsheet-ready file. From there you can print a clean copy, archive it with your records folder, or import it into any other system. Exporting monthly is a good habit since the working data lives only in your browser.
