From the data your panel already records
Your aircraft has a history. Make it useful.
Every flight, your panel writes a log to the card. Send the exports you’re authorized to share and Canary lines them up into a private baseline for your tail: how it usually runs, what changed, and what’s worth raising with your mechanic.

What we do with your files
A pile of CSVs tells you nothing. Lined-up flights tell you plenty.
Pulling the card is the easy part. The work is lining up dozens of flights so cruise compares to cruise: trend against your own history, the way oil analysis works, not against a book number.
02Structure
We line the flights up.
Canary checks what actually got recorded, then compares cruise to cruise and climb to climb across your aircraft’s own history, like-for-like.
03Review
Facts don’t get blurred into conclusions.
What was measured, what we know about the flight, and what’s still a question are each written down as exactly that, and a person reviews every word.
04Return
You get the useful record.
A private brief for your tail: what repeated, what changed, and what may be worth discussing with your A&P.
See the difference
One reading tells you almost nothing. The same reading against dozens of your own flights tells you plenty. Drag the controls; the numbers here are simulated for illustration; the method is the point.
Why a baseline?
One reading. Then your history. Then a better question.
A single reading, say a cruise temperature of 385 °F, tells you almost nothing on its own. It could be normal for one airplane and notable for another. One number, no context.
Add flights and a reference band forms around how this synthetic tail usually runs (its mean ± 2σ). The airplane is now compared with its own recorded history: not a fleet average, not a book number.
Now let the last eight flights creep upward. Without the earlier history, those points look like noise. Against it, the change is plain to see.
The report does not diagnose anything. It shows where recent readings moved beyond the earlier recorded range, so you and your mechanic can decide what, if anything, deserves review.
Same data, with and without the baseline.

The deliverable
Written for you first, your mechanic second.
Not a data dump. Every finding is three plain lines: what was measured, what we know about it, and the question it raises, with the technical detail still there when your A&P wants to dig.
01
Fast readout
The three things an owner should understand first.
02
Recorded history
What the panel captured: hours, flights, and which stretches compare cleanly.
03
Aircraft baseline
How this tail usually runs, built from its own history rather than a fleet average.
04
Review candidates
Measured changes, written as questions for your A&P, not diagnoses.
05
Limits + sources
What the files can’t show, and where every statement comes from.
Private baseline · review candidate
One change, kept in context.
OBS
What was measured
A value moved above its earlier like-for-like range across recent flights.
CTX
What we know about it
Same phase of flight, same recorded conditions: cruise compared to cruise.
ASK
The question to ask
Does the aircraft history or maintenance log explain when the change began?
The report shows the change and the question. It does not turn a recorded change into a diagnosis.
Your data
Your aircraft record should not become somebody else’s asset.
You confirm you’re permitted to share the files before anything is analyzed. Paid work stays gated until the service terms, retention controls, and verified deletion process are in effect.
Authorized
Only records you confirm you’re permitted to share. You choose what we see.
Your report only
Your files are used to build your report and nothing else, unless you separately say yes.
Private
Uploads go straight to private storage. The report comes back to you alone.
Human-reviewed
A person checks the evidence and the wording before anything reaches you.
Clear boundary. Canary complements installed avionics and human judgment. It does not diagnose failures, prescribe maintenance, or determine airworthiness.
Is this for you?
Built for the people who already have the files.
Owner-flown
A G1000-era panel and a card that has been recording for years, with nobody ever reading it.
Club / flight school
Shared tails, many pilots, and no time to line up the logs by hand.
Shop / A&P
A clean, sourced summary of how the airplane has been running before it’s in your bay.
