Service Bulletin Tracker

Track airframe service bulletins with status, applicability and due dates — complied, deferred or N/A with reasons, all export-ready.

SBs are the manufacturer's recommendations — not law unless an AD adopts them — but insurers, buyers and warranty claims treat the compliance record as a quality signal, and 'mandatory' SBs become genuinely mandatory under some foreign registries and 135 programs.

⚠️ 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 service bulletin tracker: every bulletin for your airframe service bulletins with status, dates and reasons — the compliance picture buyers, insurers and IAs ask about.

About Service Bulletin Tracker

SBs are the manufacturer's recommendations — not law unless an AD adopts them — but insurers, buyers and warranty claims treat the compliance record as a quality signal, and 'mandatory' SBs become genuinely mandatory under some foreign registries and 135 programs. The professional posture isn't 'comply with everything' — it's 'have a documented decision on everything': complied, deferred to overhaul with rationale, monitoring, or not applicable with the reason logged. That's precisely the structure of this tracker. Each bulletin carries its status, dates and notes; due and overdue badges watch the repetitive ones; and the export reads like the decision log a pre-buy inspector hopes to find and rarely does.

How to use Service Bulletin Tracker

  1. 1Add each bulletin with its number, subject and your disposition.
  2. 2Set due dates on repetitive or deferred items so badges can watch them.
  3. 3Export the decision log for annuals, pre-buys and insurance questionnaires.

Why use Service Bulletin Tracker?

  • Scoped to airframe service bulletins
  • Five-state disposition: complied / deferred / monitoring / N/A / awaiting parts
  • Due-date badges keep repetitive and deferred items alive
  • Decision-trail format — the record pre-buy inspectors actually want
  • Private browser storage with CSV export

Frequently asked questions

Are service bulletins mandatory?+

Under FAA Part 91, generally no — an SB binds only if an AD mandates it, your operation's program adopts it, or (for S-LSA) the consensus framework makes it so. But EASA-registered aircraft treat some manufacturer instructions as mandatory, 135 operators commonly adopt SB lists wholesale, and pre-buy inspectors read SB compliance as the owner's care signature. Track status (complied / deferred / N/A with reason) rather than pretending the question is binary.

How does an SB decision log help at resale?+

Pre-buy inspections price uncertainty: an aircraft with a complete bulletin disposition list lets the inspector verify in an hour what otherwise takes days of logbook archaeology — and unexplained gaps get priced as if the worst answer were true. Sellers with this record routinely defend asking price; sellers without it donate the discount. The CSV export from this tracker is exactly that document.

Where is this data stored?+

Everything you enter is saved in your browser's local storage on your own device — nothing is uploaded to any server. Your records stay completely private, work offline, and load instantly. Use the CSV export regularly to keep an off-device backup copy.

Can I export these records for an audit?+

Yes — one click exports your complete bulletin disposition log as a CSV file that opens in Excel, Google Sheets or Numbers. The export preserves every column exactly as entered, so you can print it, attach it to paperwork, or hand it to an inspector, buyer or insurance underwriter as a supporting summary alongside your official records.
