Touchdown! Greaser!
This weekend I heard about software in which the shop makes a list of the defects and posts them to your account with a description. Beside each, is a designation "airworthy item/future repair suggested/aesthetics item" (or some such). Also is the price to repair. And, photos of the defect.
You can then deselect items you don't want done and your total at the bottom automatically adjusts. I am told it is proprietary software this one shop made, and uses. This shop is a specialty shop, only does a certain model and many customers fly across the country to get there, leave the airplane for a week. So they need a better way than the telephone to demonstrate to customers what the situation is.
I thought it sounded really useful.
I realize it probably has downsides. And there are POAers who will point them out.
Anyone heard of it before?
