What is BenchLog?

Nobody gets into building an aircraft because they love paperwork. You want to be riveting skins, fitting spars, and watching an airplane take shape in your garage. But somewhere between "I just opened my first kit" and "I'm ready for inspection," you need a record of what you did, when you did it, and how long it took.

That's what BenchLog is for. It's a digital logbook purpose-built for homebuilt aircraft projects, designed by a builder, for builders. It tracks your build time, documents your progress with photos and notes, manages your parts inventory, verifies your kit contents when they arrive, tracks your expenses (if you're brave enough to look), and lets you share your journey through a public build log.

The idea is simple: spend your time on the bench, not on documenting the build. BenchLog handles the bookkeeping so you can focus on what actually matters: turning a pile of aluminium into an airplane.

Whether you need it for your DAR inspection, your EASA/LBA certification, or just because you want to know where 2,000 hours of your life went, BenchLog has you covered.
