The first logbook built exclusively for helicopter pilots. Log flights fast, explore advanced stats, track NVG & IFR hours, monitor currencies, and keep your data synced.
RotorLog: Helicopter Pilot Logbook
The first digital logbook designed from the ground up for helicopter pilots.
RotorLog makes logging every flight fast and effortless, keeps your hours organized, and gives you a real understanding of your flying through analytics built entirely around helicopter operations.
Log Every Flight in Seconds
Open the app, fill in your date, times, aircraft, and route, and you're done. Every field is where you'd expect it, and the whole thing takes seconds.
Navigate the World's Airports and Heliports
Search from a database of over 70,000 airports, heliports, and helipads worldwide by ICAO code, name, or city. Your departure and arrival are plotted instantly on an interactive map, complete with intermediate stops and off-airport coordinates for those locations that don't have an ICAO code. For helicopter pilots working remote areas, offshore platforms, or hospital rooftops, this is the route logging you've been missing.
Built Around How Helicopters Actually Fly
Log specialized missions including HEMS, SAR, firefighting, sling load, offshore, and mountain operations. Classify landing types precisely: confined areas, pinnacle, shipboard, rooftop, slope, water landings, and others. Record your role as PIC, co-pilot, dual, or instructor, and add digital instructor signatures for training flights.
Advanced Stats That Actually Tell You Something
Filter by aircraft, role, flight type, location, or any custom date range. See your hours broken down by day and night, PIC and co-pilot, IFR, NVG, turbine and piston. Explore monthly trends, a full-year activity heatmap, day-of-week patterns, flight streaks, and detailed rankings by aircraft model and location.
Currency Tracking at a Glance
Set up custom currency items with expiration dates and see instantly what's current, what's coming due, and what's expired. Track recency for night flying, IFR, NVG, simulator time, and any other requirement relevant to your operation.
Share Your Flights
Generate a clean, shareable flight card for any flight in your logbook and share it directly from the app.
Export Ready, Always
Generate a complete PDF or Excel logbook whenever you need it. Import flights from CSV or Excel, and keep everything protected with cloud sync and manual backups you can restore at any time.
