What this tool does (and doesn’t) — yet
AeroDirective shows the airworthiness directives that apply to an aircraft based on its make and model, drawn from FAA Federal Register data from 1994 to the present. Aircraft manufactured before 1994 may have earlier ADs that predate this data source — always cross-check older aircraft against the FAA’s full AD history. Matches are grouped by confidence — directives that clearly apply, and those that should be verified against the specific aircraft (serial number, installed components).
This is an informational and research aid, not a compliance record or an authoritative determination of airworthiness. It does not yet track your aircraft’s compliance history or what actions are due — those features are coming. Always verify applicability against the aircraft’s serial number, logbooks, and the official FAA source, and consult a certified A&P/IA. The owner and mechanic remain responsible for determining and documenting actual compliance.
Currently in active development: the AD catalog and aircraft coverage are expanding, and aircraft profiles, compliance logging, and currency tracking are planned. Coverage is strongest for business jets, turboprops, and helicopters, and growing.
