Contributing to KTrax
Over the years, development and operation of the KTrax site has grown to
more than just a hobbyist project. As of 2020, we therefore kindly
ask you for a moderate financial contribution for processing the
Logbook data.
We offer plans for airports (recommended) and aircraft.
We decided to keep access to the range analyser free to support safety
awareness for FLARM installations.
Free trial
We also offer a free trial for 1 month of the STANDARD plan.
Please just
send email to Gerhard with your airfield ID.
Payment
You can pay using your credit card using the buttons below. For the
STANDARD and PREMIUM plans, you can also pay via SEPA bank transfer if
preferred.
Please
send email to Gerhard for details.
Please specify airport name/ID and any callsign(s)
exactly as they appear in the logbook.

We strongly recommend choosing a plan
appropriate for the number of takeoffs
you estimate for your airport per year. An aerotow counts
as two takeoffs.
Plans with limited takeoffs run out once the limit is reached.
You can always renew within one month without losing any data.
Aircraft plans
The aircraft plans below give you access to the web logbook for
a year for a specific callsign, wherever you fly and
as long as you are covered by OGN stations. Data retention
like is like in the STANDARD plan.
These plans are recommended only for private
owners/operators who fly at various airports.

FAQ
- Q: If I sign up, is the access password-protected or public?
- A: Your logbook will be publicly visible. As of 2021,
crew names can be protected by a simple shared password mechanism.
- Q: What happens if an aircraft takes off at a subscribed airfield,
then lands on a non-subscribed one, or vice versa?
- A: If either the takeoff or landing site is subscribed, both
takeoff and landing will be recorded with full data. The 'external'
field must be covered by an OGN station providing data to KTrax for
this to work.
Limitations / Things to remember
- We value customer feedback. Please don't hesitate
contact us
if you have any complaints or suggestions!
- The Logbook requires an OGN receiver station at your airport.
You are responsible for operating it and providing the data to
KTrax via the OGN.
- Your aircraft must be registered in the
DDB.
- Supported aircraft types: Gliders, motorgliders, SEP, TMG, jets.
Experimental support for hang gliders as long as they launch from
airfields.
- Delayed OGN data delivery (sometimes used in competitions)
is not supported.
- Supported tracking devices: All types of FLARM, OGN tracker.
- Service depends on the OGN server network and DDB providing KTrax with
their respective data.
- Please allow 1-2 business days from your payment until activation/extension
of your subscription.
- Your subscription period starts with the activation and lasts
12 months plus one month of grace period or until the quota is exhausted.
- One month of grace period is provided in order to allow some delay
in followup subscription payments.
- Logbook, tracking or range analysis data are generally publicly
available. The only exception on KTrax is

mechanism.
