TRAX MANUALS > Technical Records > Technical Records Module > Technical Records, Update Menu > A/C Actual Flights (Flight Entry) > A/C Actual Flights Buttons > Intermediate Z-Log Button, via A/C Actual Flights

Intermediate Z-Logs can be added to an aircraft if the aircraft has been loaned out and therefore requires its logged times to be updated.

From the A/C Controller Panel, select the Intermediate Z Log button. The Intermediate Z-log window displays as follows.

Note: There are additional fields for Helicopter aircraft. See below.

The following information/options are available in this window:
_____________________________________________________________________________________

A/C

The aircraft that is having its Z-record updated.

Helicopter Aircraft Intermediate Z-Log Fields:

When a Rotor Wing Aircraft (i.e., helicopter) is entered into the A/C field, the additional Rotor Wing tracking fields become available.

Note: Aircraft are designated as helicopters when the Rotor Wing Aircraft checkbox is selected in the A/C Type/Series, General tab. For more information on the system's helicopter functionality refer to Helicopter Integration (Rotor Wing Aircraft) via the online help.

The following fields are also available in this window when a helicopter is entered in the A/C field:

Landings

The number of times the rotor wing aircraft touched ground while it was loaned out. Each landing does not necessarily indicate a cycle for a rotor wing aircraft. This field is only available for A/C Type/Series that have the 'Rotor Wing Aircraft' checkbox selected (i.e., helicopters).

Hoist Hours

The amount of time that the rotor wing aircraft was operating its hoist mechanism. This field can include hours and minutes. This field is only available for A/C Type/Series that have the 'Rotor Wing Aircraft' checkbox selected (i.e., helicopters).

Hoist Cycles

The number of cycles that the hoist was operated. Partial Hoist Cycles may be indicated and measured to the hundredth decimal (i.e., '4.55'). This field is only available for A/C Type/Series that have the 'Rotor Wing Aircraft' checkbox selected (i.e., helicopters).

Hook Hours

The amount of time that the rotor wing aircraft was operating its hook mechanism. The hours in this field can be measured to the hundredth decimal (i.e., '4.55'). This field is only available for A/C Type/Series that have the 'Rotor Wing Aircraft' checkbox selected (i.e., helicopters).

Hook Cycles

The number of cycles that the hook was operated. Partial Hook Cycles may be indicated and measured to the hundredth decimal (i.e., '4.55'). This field is only available for A/C Type/Series that have the 'Rotor Wing Aircraft' checkbox selected (i.e., helicopters).
