HCM Live! TAKES THE PAIN OUT OF OPERATIONAL FLIGHT REQUIREMENTS

From start-up to shut-down, HCM Live! works with your helicrewmanager.com account to automate all of the usual flight requirements, making flight logging and its associated legalities an absolute breeze.

PLANNED FLIGHT DATA IS STORED FOR AUTOMATIC ACCESS.

- Schedule your flight on your account, and simply tap once to use and reuse the setup for each subsequent flight.
- For ad-hoc flights with different crew or aircraft, a JUST FLY solution is provided, where you can manually select them from a list.

KEEP TRACK OF CREW CHECKS AND RECENCIES.

- Crew are notified of individual checks and recencies approaching expiry before each flight.
- Colour coding provides easy reference: yellow = approaching expiry, red = expired.

KEEP TRACK OF AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ITEMS.

- Aircraft maintenance items can be defined in terms of landings, hours or calendar time.
- Crew are notified of approaching items before each flight, making keeping track of aircraft serviceability simple.
- Aircraft flight time, total time, cycles and landings are tallied for easy reference.

SUBMIT AND UPDATE A FULL CofG FOR EACH FLIGHT LEG.

- Accurate, type-specific CofGs are recorded before take-off, and can be optionally updated on each leg, assisting in decision-making in marginal weight conditions.
- Rolefits provide different setups (eg VIP, cargo, HEMS) for each aircraft type that automatically loads when selected.

SIGN OFF ON LEGALITIES.
- Crew signatures are recorded for each flight, providing legal flight authorisation.
- Every flight results in accurately stored historical data for every phase of flight, taking the worry out of your next audit.

ACCURATE, COST-EFFECTIVE FLIGHT TRACKING.

- GPS based flight tracking is provided and recorded, with a Live Mission functionality that allows operational staff to monitor flights as they progress.
- Automatic flight logging makes post-flight paperwork completely painless.
- Capture mission-specific data as you’re shutting down the aircraft, and simply check for accuracy back at base - no more endless filling out of manual forms!

HCM Live! WILL REVOLUTIONISE THE WAY YOU MANAGE YOUR OPERATION, NO MATTER WHAT ITS SIZE. GIVE IT A WHIRL TODAY - YOU’LL WONDER HOW YOU EVER MANAGED WITHOUT IT!

Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?

This update to Live! brings more flexible post-flight data entry, improvements to battery efficiency with GPS accuracy controls and a range of bugfixes and tweaks.

What’s new?

- Compatibility with iOS 26 - 1.60 makes sure that we support newer and future devices properly, along with iOS 26’s new requirements for device permissions, which may mean you will be prompted to allow Live! certain access to device-level functions again.
- Navigate backwards in post-flight data entry - you can now redo or overwrite previous entries in the post-flight pages before you sign the flight off for upload to the HCM system. This means you can now correct mistakes or add additional details once you’ve completed the step.
- Create re-survey events with comments on the go - you can now set new survey expiry dates from Live! which syncs with the HLS Directory’s waypoints along with comments to explain each re-survey.
- Dial in the accuracy of your device GPS with a slider - in the app settings, you can now set your device to poll your GPS location with more or less accuracy, allowing you to choose between better flight tracks or performance/battery efficiency.

What’s fixed?

- We’ve made it clearer what the issue is when logging in fails - in preparation for an authentication change, we’ve made these notices clearer. Please make sure you’re aware of the above maintenance period as a result of this.

We also tweaked:

- Added the operator name of the account that’s currently logged in is now displayed in the app.
- Larger +/- edit buttons in the manual timings page.
- Backgrounds and other materials have been simplified to reduce app size.
- Fixed an annoyance that would consistently ask the user to allow locations permissions.
- Fixed a problem where the crew search bar wouldn’t reset after selecting a user.
- Removed unused motion detection functionality.
