5-by-5 Aviation
Aircraft Ownership, Simplified
Only for iPhone
Free
iPhone
Cover all your aircraft management needs — flight logs, scheduling, maintenance tracking, and now an AI assistant to answer questions about your data and documents.
5-by-5 is the complete aircraft ownership platform — whether you fly solo or as part of a flying club or partnership.
Built by pilots who got tired of spreadsheets, group texts, and binders full of PDFs, 5-by-5 puts everything you need to manage your aircraft in one place.
SCHEDULING
Book flights on a shared calendar with color-coded member slots. Sync to Google Calendar or Outlook. Convert bookings to logged flights with one tap.
FLIGHT LOGGING
Log flights with tach or Hobbs times, airports, routes, and landings in under a minute. The tach cascade system keeps your flight history perfectly continuous — even when flights are inserted or corrected after the fact.
MAINTENANCE TRACKING
Track annuals, oil changes, ADs, time-limited components, and more — with automatic due-date calculations and dashboard alerts. Import Airworthiness Directives relevant to your aircraft with a single tap.
SQUAWK REPORTING
Report aircraft discrepancies with severity levels and photos. Grounding squawks show a bold alert so no one flies a broken airplane.
A&P MECHANIC ACCESS
Invite your mechanic with a dedicated role — they get access to maintenance records and squawks without seeing scheduling, billing, or member data.
PILOT CURRENCY
Automatic FAA currency tracking from your logged flights — day, night, IFR, medical, and flight review. Always know where you stand.
MANUALS LIBRARY
130+ POHs, maintenance manuals, engine guides, and accessory documents for the most common GA aircraft — always with you.
FLYING CLUBS & PARTNERSHIPS
Shared scheduling, per-member billing, cost sharing with bank account sync, member roles and titles, and group-wide currency tracking. Everything a group needs to stay coordinated.
WEB DASHBOARD (Paid Plans)
Full-screen analytics on your desktop — flight trends, financial insights, cashflow analysis, maintenance scheduling, oil analysis history, and FlightAware track data integration. Export datasets as CSV.
Start free. Upgrade when you're ready.
