Daher’s mobile app for managing safety and efficiency of its turboprop-single TBM series is now being developed for the company’s Kodiak utility airplanes and will offer similar features such as remote aircraft status, My Kodiak Docs, and contacts. The Me & My Kodiak app is under development and available now in a demo version, which Daher is showing this week at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh.
To access remote aircraft status, Kodiak 100s and 900s equipped with Garmin GDL 60 datalink can share aircraft information via Garmin’s PlaneSync connected aircraft management system with authorized users. This includes fuel quantity, oxygen levels, TKS fluid levels, oil temperature, and battery charge.
My Kodiak Docs provides access to the latest versions of maintenance manuals, illustrated parts catalogs, line maintenance manuals, service bulletins, briefing cards, and posters. Also available are aircraft information via the flight ops page and a resources page with “a full range of aircraft information and knowledge,” according to Daher, as well as a maintenance page with maintenance documentation.
For access to Daher’s customer support team, the app has a contacts feature for quick connection to the right people. Other app functionality includes a My Flight Crew page that enables sharing information with authorized pilots and crews and the My Kodiak Fleet Page for managing multiple Kodiaks.
