AircraftLogs has released upgrades that automate the calculations for tax reporting for companies with an internal flight department. The upgraded “Tax Manager” feature works with existing flight records and passenger data that are held in the AircraftLogs system. It updates aircraft tax compliance information immediately after each flight and will calculate fringe benefit income as required, following the use of the aircraft by executives, according to AircraftLogs. This feature allows tax personnel to monitor compliance on a real-time basis.
