Helipaddy Flights(Beta release Q3 2024)

Automated PPR via Helipaddy + log flights

Pilots

Optionally log flights and PPR via the app

We have designed Helipaddy Flights to handle both past flight logs and future landing requests (PPR). All you do is enter a flight in the future and Helipaddy displays the request in the site owner’s dashboard for them to approve.

Do you sometimes forget to update your logbook? You can easily record where you have landed with Helipaddy’s Flights tool. This is not designed as a logbook replacement but it is designed as a “quick log” and stores just about enough information for you to be able to update your flight logbook later.

A flight log contains the minimum information:

  • Destination
  • Tail number
  • Date and time in UTC
  • Flight time

Adding a flight is very quick because Helipaddy defaults to showing the current time and the nearest site to where you are. The Tail Number also defaults to the previous one used. So it really is 2-click logging.

Helipaddy founders have chosen to use the notes field to store the engine hours but you can use it for anything. We will soon add the ability to record a photo here too.

Helipaddy will make it possible to display just the places you’ve landed on a map using the Filters.


Site Owners

Approve any landings automatically

Helipaddy pilots love using the app to see your landing instructions. Our new Landing Request feature takes this a step further and shows the landing request in your dashboard. There is no need to note down phone number or emails, the whole process is handled inside Helipaddy and it is all free.

We have given you the ability to view the details and then pick some conditions that you wish to set for the landing.

This removes all confusion and ambiguity. Now you can be certain if the aircraft, pilot, date and time of any landing. You can also be certain that visiting pilots will not land without seeing your latest landing instructions. Simply log in to your dashboard at app.helipaddy.com and click the Landings tab.
