About Skylogs
Your flying life, beautifully archived.
What is Skylogs?
Skylogs is a free, web-first flight logbook built for paragliding and hang gliding pilots. Upload your IGC, KML, or GPX track files and Skylogs will automatically parse your flight data, calculate statistics, map your route, and build a permanent archive of every flight you've ever taken.
No app to install. No subscription required. Just upload and fly.
What you get
- Automatic flight analysis — distance, duration, altitude, thermals, glide efficiency, and more, all calculated from your track file.
- Beautiful flight maps — interactive Leaflet maps with your track overlaid on terrain.
- Weather context — wind, temperature, and conditions at the time of your flight, pulled from multiple weather services.
- Takeoff database — thousands of launch sites worldwide with geospatial search.
- Community features — leaderboards, pilot profiles, clubs, and follows so you can share your flying life.
- Learning platform — structured mentorship, debriefs, drills, and competency tracking for pilots who want to improve.

- Public sharing — share any flight with a short URL, complete with Open Graph metadata for social media previews.
Our mission
We believe every flight deserves to be remembered. Whether it's a 10-minute sledge ride or a 200 km cross-country adventure, Skylogs gives you a permanent, searchable, shareable record of your time in the air.
Skylogs was built by pilots, for pilots. We're focused on making the best possible logbook experience — fast, clean, and free of clutter. We don't sell your data, we don't run intrusive ads, and we don't lock core features behind a paywall.
Open & transparent
Skylogs is built with Ruby on Rails and powered by MongoDB. Flight tracks are parsed server-side using dedicated IGC, KML, and GPX parsers. Weather data comes from open sources including MET Norway (Frost), Open-Meteo, NOAA, and Meteoblue.
Your data is yours. You can export your flights at any time or delete your account entirely. We respect your privacy and keep things simple — read our Privacy Policy for the full details.
