Questions
- Does claiming change my airplane's public page?
- No. A claim is private: nobody else can see it. The public page changes only after you verify ownership.
- Who can claim?
- Owners, co-owners and people who manage an airplane for its owner. Several people can claim the same airplane.
- What does it cost?
- Nothing. Claiming, alerts and My Hangar are free.
- How do I verify ownership?
- Verification is coming: a postcard to the FAA registered address and an ID check. The address is used only for that mailing and never shown.
- Are AD alerts a compliance record?
- No. They say an AD may apply. Your logbooks and your mechanic are the authority.
- How do I stop?
- Use “Stop tracking” in My Hangar, or the unsubscribe link in any email.
