Ground Support Equipment Log
Ground Support Equipment Log for hangars and shops — structured entries with due badges and the audit trail tool-control programs require.
GSE fails at the moment of need — the tug with a flat, the jacks past inspection, the GPU that won't start in January — because nothing schedules its maintenance unless an owner does.

⚠️ 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 (FAA/EASA) and your operator's approved documents before flying.
Free ground support equipment log for hangars, shops and owner-maintainers: ground support equipment (tugs, jacks, GPUs, compressors, stands, heaters) carries its own service needs and inspection items, and it ages invisibly because no annual inspection forces the question — every item badge-watched with due dates, kept privately in your browser and exportable to CSV for audits and insurance.
About Ground Support Equipment Log
Ground support equipment (tugs, jacks, GPUs, compressors, stands, heaters) carries its own service needs and inspection items, and it ages invisibly because no annual inspection forces the question. The operational truth: GSE fails at the moment of need — the tug with a flat, the jacks past inspection, the GPU that won't start in January — because nothing schedules its maintenance unless an owner does. This board structures the record — entries dated and statused, due badges watching the clocks, headline tiles keeping the counts honest — and exports the evidence audits, insurers and quality reviews ask for.

Frequently asked questions
What GSE maintenance gets forgotten until it bites?+
The classics: jack load tests and hydraulic seals (the failure you really don't want under an aircraft), tug batteries and tires, GPU starting and output checks before the season that needs them, compressor drains and filters, engine-heater elements before the first freeze. None of it is hard; all of it is unowned by default because no regulation forces a calendar onto GSE. This board IS that calendar — items, conditions, service dates, badges.
Is this level of discipline worth it for a small hangar?+
The discipline scales down better than the alternative: one out-of-cal torque value, one lost tool's grounding search, or one insurance claim against an unitemised inventory each cost more than years of thirty-second entries. Small operations skip the systems because nobody requires them — then meet the requirement retroactively, at incident prices. The board is the cheap version of that lesson.
Do I need an account or internet connection?+
No account and no connection are needed once the page has loaded — records live in local storage on your device and every calculation runs in your browser. Data doesn't sync between devices, so export the CSV when you want to move or archive your records.
What format does the export use and what reads it?+
A plain CSV with one row per entry and labelled column headers — the most portable format there is. Spreadsheets open it directly, most specialised software can map it on import, and a printed copy is perfectly legible to a human reviewer. Nothing proprietary means your shop record is never trapped here.
