When reporting a parser miss, please redact pilot / crew names and replace real aircraft registrations with placeholders before sharing a PDF.

Frequently asked questions

• Is my flight data uploaded anywhere?

  No. The entire conversion runs in your browser. There is no server route, no analytics, no telemetry. See the Privacy Notice on the home page or read it in the project repository.

• Which PDF formats are supported?

  The bundled parser is source-agnostic — it works against any tabular PDF whose rows contain a date, two airport codes, two clock times (out/in), and at least one duration. It has been tested against a range of operator-issued reports. If yours doesn’t parse, file an issue with a redacted sample.

• Which logbook apps can I export to?

  Built-in profiles: LogTen Pro, ForeFlight, MccPilotLog, AAFelog, Safelog, and a generic CSV. JSON export is also available. You can rename headers, reorder columns, hide columns, and change date / time format via “Customize columns…”.

• My PDF didn’t parse — what now?

  Open an issue on GitHub with a description of the source PDF (operator, period covered, any unusual layout). If you can share a redacted sample (pilot / crew names removed, real registrations replaced with placeholders), attach it. The debug pane (·?debug=1on the URL) has a “Copy diagnostics” button — paste its output into the issue, that’s the easiest way to help the maintainer reproduce.

• Does the iOS app work offline?

  Yes. Once installed (either via the App Store or via “Add to Home Screen” in Safari), the app shell is cached by a service worker. You can convert PDFs on a plane with no network.

• How do I report a security issue?

  Please email orad@aero-logic.org directly rather than opening a public issue. The app is fully client-side so the attack surface is small, but responsible disclosure is appreciated.
