Wings registered through a partner

A wing registered through a partner opens a partner page instead of the standard one. See Redeem a partner offer.

  1. A service card shows the partner logo and your Service interval, with the hours left until the next service.
  2. If the partner has a products page, a button such as {partner} Products opens it in your browser.
  3. A checkbox reads I agree to share anonymous usage data with {partner}. Tick it to consent. Untick it to stop sharing.
  4. Serial No. is read-only. You can still change the other values, edit notes, change the name, archive the wing and view its flights.

Lower in the page, current actions include:

Tap Flights to see every flight you recorded with that wing. Tap a flight to open the recording. See Flight recording for what you can do there.
