You hear about it last.
Aviation parts intelligence for MROs and parts traders. Tails move, directives land, contracts turn over, and it reaches you after the RFQ. Datawings reads 31 government registries every night. You hear it the next morning.
Used by FCS Finland.
Most databases guess which engine is on an aircraft. Ours checks.
01 / The confirmation check
A guessed engine is a wasted call.
Only a registry record or a named source may say which engine type an operator flies. Everything else stays held, in grey.
Counts only, never rows: confirmed engine families, how many are held, active tails, signals in 90 days.
02 / Numbers, as of 5 October 2026
Counted, not estimated.
Every figure below is a count from the database, not a projection.
03 / Features
Twelve things it tells you before the RFQ does.
From teardown and part-out candidates to new airworthiness directives. Under each one, a real line from the database.

05 / Provenance
A wrong fact costs more than a missing one.
Every row links to its source. No language model, in the pipeline or at query time.
The rule
| Confirmed | A registry record or a named source on file states the engine for that operator and type, or the type can only carry one engine. |
|---|---|
| Unconfirmed | The type can carry more than one engine and nothing on file says which. Listed apart, never counted, never filled in. |
Beyond the registers
| Airworthiness authorities | Airworthiness directives, matched to confirmed engine families |
|---|---|
| Aircraft registers | Deregistration files, service difficulty reports, lien filings |
| Financial filings | Filed balance sheets, cash and equity |
| Accident investigators | Occurrences by operator |
| Maintenance approvals | Part-145 approvals by capability and country |
| Dismantlers | Completed teardowns, operator named by the dismantler |
| Trade press | Fleet and contract news, used by permission |
