Digital Airport Logbook: Portbook

Portbook is Aviatize’s smart, digital logbook designed for small and medium-sized airfields and flying clubs. Its main purpose is to serve as an alternative to the traditional, error-prone paper portbook (havenboek) that many airfields still use to meet legal requirements. Portbook is fully CAA-approved, giving you confidence that you remain compliant while transitioning to digital. It replaces the messy paperwork, spreadsheets, or whiteboards typically used to track aircraft movements — giving you a real-time, centralized view of what’s happening at your airport. Whether you’re the vliegveldoverste, club manager, or simply helping out with operations, Portbook gives you the clarity and structure you need.

What You Can Do with Portbook

· Log Departures & Arrivals: Track every aircraft movement — local flights, training sorties, or cross-country trips.

· Know What’s Airborne: Get instant visibility on which aircraft are in the air and where they’re headed.

· Manage Airfield Status: Mark your airport as open or closed in one click, visible to all club members and users.

· View Flight Types at a Glance: Categorize flights as local, other airfields, or specific mission types.

· User-Friendly Interface: Accessible from desktop or mobile devices — so you can manage operations wherever you are.
