How to create a maintenance schedule

Maintenance schedules define recurring maintenance tasks for an aircraft. Use schedules to ensure required maintenance is planned, tracked, and completed on time.

Before you start

Before creating a maintenance schedule, make sure you have:

  • An aircraft or aircraft model set up

  • A clear understanding of the maintenance requirement

  • Relevant intervals (time, flight hours, or cycles)

This ensures your schedule is accurate and usable.


Create a maintenance schedule

Follow these steps to create a maintenance schedule:

1. Go to Maintenance Planning → Maintenance Schedules
2. Click “New Maintenance Schedule”
3. Select the aircraft or aircraft model
4. Define the maintenance task
5. Set the interval (time, hours, or cycles)
6. Save the schedule

What to include in a schedule

A maintenance schedule should clearly define:

  • Task description – What needs to be done

  • Interval – When it must be performed

  • Aircraft or model – What it applies to

This ensures the task is triggered at the right time.


Choosing the right interval

Maintenance schedules can be based on:

  • Time (e.g. every 12 months)

  • Flight hours (e.g. every 100 hours)

  • Cycles (if applicable)

Choose the correct interval based on maintenance requirements.


What happens after creating a schedule

Once created:

  • The system tracks when the task becomes due

  • Upcoming maintenance is visible in the dashboard

  • Work orders can be created based on the schedule

This helps ensure maintenance is never missed.

Tips

  • Use clear and consistent task names

  • Set realistic intervals based on requirements

  • Review schedules regularly

  • Link schedules to aircraft models where possible
