How to Print

As you get to know the different tools within the program, you will notice there are also a number of ways to print. We recommend always using the Print buttons within the program, and NOT using your browser’s built-in print function.

Whenever you click a “Print” button, from anywhere in the program, you will notice that the first thing that appears is a PDF view of your document. From here, you will notice that each browser offers different print tools. We’ll discuss each one at the end of this article.

Here are the print buttons you will use while navigating the different screens:

AD Compliance Reports – There are several print option to choose from:

AD Compliance Reports – Recurring ADs Only:

https://zookaviation.com/blog/2019/06/25/print-recurring-ads-only/

AD Lists – Once your AD search list results appear, click the Print AD List button:

Logbook Entries – Print one entry, or multiple entries at the same time:

https://zookaviation.com/blog/2020/02/10/print-multiple-logbook-entries/

Work Orders – Click the Print Work Order button:

Invoicing: There are several ways to print, try each of the buttons to see each option:

IA Activity Report – Click the Print button:

Your Billing History – Whether you’re on a monthly plan or annual, you can print your transaction history:

https://zookaviation.com/blog/2019/03/22/billing-history/

Forms (like Weight & Balance, 337, etc): Wherever you see the print button, this is the best option to choose. From here you can directly print the PDF, or even download and save it to your computer.

Differences in Browsers:

Safari: Print options are at the bottom-center of the page. Move your mouse for the Print options to appear.
Firefox: Depending on your version and computer set-up, Firefox may automatically download the PDF and display it on your screen. There are also Add-ons for Firefox that will allow you to Preview your page before printing.
Internet Explorer: this browser is out-of-date, so we recommend upgrading to Microsoft Edge.
Edge: If you’re having trouble with Edge, here’s a helpful article to get your PDF printing straightened out: https://www.nucleustechnologies.com/blog/how-to-open-pdf-documents-in-microsoft-edge/

If your browser is still not cooperating, consider adding an extension, like this one, by PrintFriendly:

Safari: https://www.printfriendly.com/extensions/safari

Chrome: https://www.printfriendly.com/extensions/chrome

Firefox: https://www.printfriendly.com/extensions/firefox

Edge: https://www.printfriendly.com/extensions/edge

Internet Explorer (IE): https://www.printfriendly.com/extensions/ie

Weight and Balance Forms

Did you know we offer Weight & Balance forms, as well as Revision forms?

Our W&B forms do the calculations for you, saving you time and potential mistakes. Need to make a Revision? No problem!

You can make a new form, view, edit, duplicate, convert, print, or download/save it.

There are several different ways to access the Weight & Balance Forms.

1. From within an Aircraft Profile, in “My Aircraft“:

2. Another way is from the left panel, on the Dashboard, under Forms:

Login now to create new, view and edit existing reports from the My Forms link. Use the Filter Search, using keywords (like weigh, or rev) to narrow the list down.

3. A third way is in the middle section of the Member Dashboard. There is an area just for Forms:

Login now to create new, view, or edit existing reports from the My Forms area on the Dashboard. Use the Filter Search, using keywords (like weigh, or rev) to narrow the list down.

Read the NTSB‘s article: Minding Weight, Maintaining Balance

2. Conduct weight and balance calculations
3. Be prepared and conduct takeoff and landing distance calculations

Monthly Price Plans

As you know, we offer several different price options, but here, we’re just going to talk about our Monthly Price Plan.

Here are just a few things we’ll go over:

1. 1. What are the Monthly Price Plans?
  2. What are the advantages?
  3. How does it work?
  4. How do I sign up?
  5. How do I “pause” my subscription?
  6. Re-activating your account after pausing subscription.

Let’s get started:

1. What are the Monthly Price Plans?

We offer two monthly plans:

- - $49 a month plan for Single Users (One Person)
  - $59 a month Plan for Multi Users (Up to 5 People in One Shop)

2. What are the Advantages?

It takes less money to get started, and you can turn it off, and on, as needed.*

*Yes, there is a catch, but it’s simple to follow: The Monthly Plans do require a Six-Month Minimum to fulfill, before you can turn the plan off and on, as needed. Once that 6-month time frame is over, you’ll have option to pause your subscription.

What’s so great about that? Well, first, it saves you money, and all your information is still there, in place, right where you left it, whether it’s a month since you turned it off, or a year or two years! We keep all your data in one place, for as long a you need. It will be right there waiting whenever you re-activate your account.

3. How does it work?

Once you sign up for the Monthly Plan, you will be charged (either $49 or $59) each month. This is a recurring amount that will automatically be charged every month on the date you signed up.

After you have reached the 6 month mark, you will have the option of pausing your subscription.

How do you do that? Login > Notifications panel > Monthly Subscription Status/Options > Cancel Subscription (do not be alarmed, the “cancel” acts as a “pause”). Click HERE for visual instructions.

When you’re ready to re-activate your account, just login with your existing email and password, and click back on the Monthly Plan. You’ll regain instant access to your account.

4. How do I sign up for a Monthly Plan?

Signing up is easy!

If you’re new to us, just go to our Pricing page and select either the $49 or $59 Plan.

If you have an Expired Free Trial account, login with your Trial Email, and select either $49 or $59 Plan.

If you’re an Expired Online User, login with your User Email, and select either $49 or $59 Plan.

If you’re an Expired Disc-only User from a few years ago, you will need to open a new Online account. Just go to our Pricing page and select either the $49 or $59 Plan.

If you’d like to see a Cost Comparison for the Monthly Plans, click HERE

5. How do I “pause” my subscription?

After you have signed up, and fulfilled the required 6 month minimum term, you can then pause. Click HERE to see how.

6. Reactivating an account after pausing subscription:

If you’ve “paused” your subscription and are ready to reactivate, it’s easy: Just login with the same exact email and password that you had already been using, no matter how brief or long you’ve been away. You will be given the opportunity to renew.

Reactivating your account will initiate automatic recurring charges each month. It is up to you to pause your subscription again.

Safety Alert – Ignition Switches

From the FAA:

The National Transportation Safety Board recently issued two new Aviation Safety Alerts (SA). SA-080 (https://www.ntsb.gov/safety/safety-alerts/Documents/SA-080.pdf) alerts pilots and mechanics to “stay in the groove” and check the integrity of aircraft ignition switches. The SA warns that over time, key-type ignition switches and associated keys can become worn such that it is possible to remove the key from a switch position other than the OFF position. This can result in switch positioning errors and an unintended engine start.

An accompanying video is available here: https://youtu.be/JDnnXjNb2vc
