Dashboard Data

Faster filtering on Fleet and Changes, plus eight more registries #instant-filtering-and-more-registries

Fleet, Changes, and the export builder now update their results in place when you filter, sort, switch tabs, or page through, instead of reloading the whole page. Every one of these interactions still works exactly the same way with JavaScript switched off; this is a progressive enhancement, not a requirement. Changes also gained an “Other” registry selector covering eight additional national aircraft registers.

added
  • An “Other” registry selector on the Changes browser covering eight minor registries (Austria, the Bahamas, the Cayman Islands, Cyprus, Hungary, Spain, the Maldives, and Malta), with multi-select checkboxes and a combined feed.
  • A “Reinstated” event type for aircraft that return to an active minor registry after being removed.
  • A cadence badge on Other views, since these registries import on a monthly snapshot rather than daily - an honest “last import” date and empty-state message rather than a fake live feed.
  • Per-registry counts next to the FAA, CCAR, and CASA tabs on Changes and the export builder, matching the counts Fleet already showed.
changed
  • Filtering, sorting, switching tabs, and paging through Fleet and Changes now updates the results in place; the export builder gained the same groundwork for a future pass.
  • Field-by-field change details for the minor registries now show readable labels and values instead of raw data.
fixed
  • The active-filter chips above Fleet results are now a proper list for screen-reader and keyboard users, with a “Clear all” link once two or more filters are applied.

Dashboard Webhooks

Dashboard: usage sparkline, webhook health, and accessibility upgrades #dashboard-usage-sparkline-webhook-health

A follow-up polish pass on the member dashboard: an at-a-glance API usage sparkline, a webhook delivery health panel, and an accessibility pass over the report activity and plan panels.

added
  • An hourly API-calls sparkline in the API calls tile, covering the last 24 hours once you have made calls this month.
  • A webhook delivery health panel showing your most recent webhook subscriptions and their last delivery status.
  • A “Mark all read” action on the Watch list activity panel.
changed
  • The Report activity panel and the Plan & security card now use proper semantic markup — a real table with column headers, and a definition list — for screen reader users.
  • “New watch list” now works without JavaScript.
removed
  • The row of quick-action cards at the bottom of the dashboard.

Member dashboard redesign #member-dashboard-redesign

The member dashboard has been rebuilt around one question: what happened since you last looked. It now leads with what needs your attention — watch list alerts, report runs, and saved searches — instead of a static overview.

added
  • A needs-attention strip surfacing failed report runs, webhook delivery failures, plans nearing their quota, trials ending soon, and security nudges. It renders nothing when everything is fine.
  • Tier-adaptive stat tiles: features your plan does not include no longer show a permanent zero.
  • Per-registry data freshness chips for FAA, CCAR, and CASA, each showing that registry’s real last sync (date-only sources show the date, never a fabricated clock time).
  • A report activity panel listing your last five report runs with status and download links.
  • A saved fleet searches panel on the dashboard.
  • A plan and security card showing your tier, renewal or trial date, and two-factor authentication and recovery email status.
  • A first-run setup checklist for new members.
  • A “New watch list” button that opens a create dialog directly from the dashboard.
  • Aircraft registrations across the changes browser and live feed now link through to the aircraft detail page.
changed
  • The registry coverage panel now reflects the live registry catalog instead of a fixed list.
  • The changes-this-week count in the dashboard header now matches the change feed.
fixed
  • Canadian (CCAR) change times previously displayed as 00:00 regardless of when the change actually happened; they now show the real time.
  • Canadian (CCAR) owner-change events previously showed only a dash under “What changed”; they now read “Owner”, and expanding the row shows the previous and new owner.
  • Removed several dead buttons and inaccurate plan-limit copy from the dashboard.

FAA type-certificate data and revision history #faa-tcds-integration

FAA aircraft pages now connect FAA-supplied Type Certificate Data Sheet (TCDS) numbers to the current certificate record and official revision documents in FAA DRS.

added
  • Current certificate metadata on the Technical tab, including the holder, covered models, status, revision date, certification references, and a link to the official FAA DRS document.
  • A revision-count summary for all visitors, plus a newest-first type-certificate revision timeline with structured metadata changes for Pro and Enterprise members.
changed
  • TCDS matching relies only on the certificate number supplied by the FAA aircraft-reference data. AeroReg does not infer certificates from manufacturer, model, category, or serial number.

Global search across the member app #member-global-search

The search bar in the member app header now works end to end. Type a hex code, registration, or serial number anywhere in the app and jump straight to the aircraft you are looking for — with keyboard-first suggestions as you type.

added
  • Global search results page: searching from the header (or visiting /search) resolves an exact hex code or registration — including pre-1957 Canadian vintage marks — straight to the aircraft page. Anything else runs a prefix search across your entitled registries, grouped into registration and serial-number matches with live totals and a hand-off into Fleet for deeper filtering.
  • Suggestions as you type: the header search now offers keyboard-navigable suggestions (exact match first, then registrations) after two characters, with full screen-reader support. Press Ctrl+K (or ⌘K on a Mac) from any page to jump to the search box.
  • Owner and operator queries stay in Fleet search, which is built for them — the search page and empty states point you there.
changed
  • Search respects your plan’s registry entitlements: registries outside your country selection appear locked with a link to manage your countries, and suggestions only draw from registries on your plan. Looking up a single aircraft by exact hex or registration remains available across all live registries.

Saved fleet searches with new-match alerts #saved-fleet-searches

Save any Fleet view as a named search you can rerun in one click, and optionally be alerted when new or changed aircraft start matching it. Alerts run daily or weekly, arrive by email and in your in-app notifications, and cover all three registries. Saved searches are available on every plan, with higher limits on paid tiers.

added
  • Save the current Fleet filters, registry, and sort as a named saved search from the Fleet page (Save quietly).
  • Optional daily or weekly alerts when new or changed aircraft match a saved search (Save & alert), delivered by email and as in-app notifications.
  • A new manage page at /saved-searches to rename, reschedule, run, or delete your saved searches.
  • Full coverage across the FAA (US), Transport Canada (CCAR), and Australian (CASA) registries.
  • New-match detection based on our own daily registry diffs, with one-click email unsubscribe on every alert.

API Dashboard Data

Market intelligence for Enterprise: US aircraft market trends, turnover, and the FAA backlog index #market-intelligence

Enterprise members now get a market-intelligence layer built on the FAA document recordation stream: monthly transaction trends, financing and refinance activity, fleet-deal detection, distress filings, model turnover leaderboards, export destinations, and a first-of-its-kind FAA processing-backlog index — all available on a new dashboard page and through the API.

added
  • A Market intelligence page (Enterprise) with monthly aircraft-sales trends split by segment (piston, turboprop, jet, electric), financing penetration and refinance counts, repossession and court-filing trends, a model turnover leaderboard, top manufacturers and states, and export destinations.
  • The FAA processing-backlog index: the median lag between a bill of sale being recorded and the ownership change appearing in the FAA master registry, tracked month by month. The backlog has risen from about four weeks to over ten weeks since late 2025 — Enterprise members can watch it move.
  • Four new API endpoints under /api/v1/market/summary, series, breakdown, and turnover — with JSON and CSV output, gated by the new market:read scope. New API keys include the scope by default; existing keys need it added.
  • Quick-resale tracking: the share of recorded sales where the same aircraft sells again within 6 or 12 months.

Series begin May 2025 (document history reaches back to April 2024). Metrics are derived from recorded-document activity; this is not a title search, and no claim of clear title is made.

Title documents in the changes browser and report exports #documents-change-feed

The FAA title-document stream introduced with title intelligence is now browsable and exportable. Pro and Enterprise members can scan recorded documents across the whole registry, not just on individual aircraft pages.

added
  • A Documents tab in the changes browser (FAA registry): recorded title documents with receipt date, registration, serial number (MSN), document type, an interpreted event label (sale, lien, lien release, repossession, court filing, and more), and a correction flag. Filter by document type or registration, sort, and page through any date window. Pro and Enterprise; other plans see a locked preview.
  • Report exports (CSV / JSON) from the changes source now support the documents kind with the same columns, filters, and date window.

Document coverage reflects recorded-document activity since April 2024. This is not a title search, and no claim of clear title is made.

Title intelligence: document timelines and sale-pending alerts #title-intelligence

Aero Reg now reads the FAA’s daily document recordation stream — bills of sale, security agreements, lien releases, repossessions, and court filings — and turns it into title intelligence for Pro and Enterprise members. Recorded sales typically appear here about seven weeks before the ownership change reaches the FAA master registry, so you hear about them first.

added
  • An interpreted title timeline on the aircraft detail Documents tab: sales (with financed-purchase detection), new liens, lien releases, refinances, repossessions, and court filings, plus a per-aircraft lien-activity summary. Available on Pro and Enterprise; Basic and Analyst keep the raw recent-documents list.
  • Watch-list document alerts: when a new title document is recorded against an aircraft you watch, an alert is raised — including the sale-pending signal (“Bill of sale recorded — ownership change typically follows in ~7 weeks”), plus lien, lien-release, refinance, and distress (repossession / court filing) variants. Alerts ride your existing watch-list digests, realtime emails, notification bell, and the watch-lists API. Pro and Enterprise.
fixed
  • The documents list on aircraft detail no longer shows duplicate rows when the FAA re-files or corrects a document.

Document coverage reflects recorded-document activity since April 2024. This is not a title search, and no claim of clear title is made.

In-app notifications #in-app-notifications

Aero Reg now keeps you posted on the aircraft and reports you are tracking. A new notification bell in the top bar surfaces recent activity at a glance, backed by a dedicated notifications page and a preference centre that puts you in control of what you hear about.

added
  • A notification bell in the top navigation, with an unread count and a dropdown of your most recent activity.
  • A dedicated Notifications page that groups activity by day, with type filters and an unread-only view.
  • Notifications for the events that matter to your work: a watch-list alert when a tracked aircraft changes, and a heads-up the moment a scheduled report export is ready (or if one fails).
  • A notification preference centre under your Account settings, so you can choose which events reach you in-app and by email, independently.

Admin membership console #admin-membership-console

Staff can now manage the membership system end to end from the admin: subscription tiers, the features each tier unlocks, and billing details. Processor-agnostic and restricted to super administrators.

added
  • Create and edit subscription tiers and the feature matrix behind them.
  • A country picker and billing fields on the member record.

Changes browser overhaul and multi-registry coverage #changes-multi-registry

The /changes browser has been overhauled and now spans multiple registries. A combined live feed keeps the day-grouped composite cells, while new per-type tabs add dense, sortable, column-configurable tables. A registry selector switches between the FAA, Canadian (CCAR) and Australian (CASA) datasets.

added
  • Per-type tabs (Additions, Modifications, Deletions, Re-registrations) with sortable, column-configurable tables.
  • A registry selector across FAA, CCAR and CASA.
  • An in-place expandable diff cell showing every changed field.
changed
  • The default date window is now a real last-7-days query, not a mock.
deprecated
  • The old FAA-only mock change feed, superseded by the multi-registry adapter.
fixed
  • Column alignment, so changes can be scanned across aircraft.
