The overhaul is coming. Is the money?

Every hour on the tach is a fraction of an overhaul spent. This tool shows whether your reserve balance is keeping pace with the engine's clock - and the per-hour rate that gets you to TBO fully funded.

A healthy fund keeps the second bar at or ahead of the first. A gap is tomorrow's capital call, quietly growing.

Why fund the overhaul per hour instead of saving ad hoc?

Because the engine wears per hour, not per month. A per-hour accrual charged on every flight means the pilot who flies the hours funds the wear, the balance grows in lockstep with the tach, and overhaul day arrives with a funded account instead of a capital call.

What if we started reserving late?

Then the honest per-hour number is higher than the from-new number, because fewer hours remain to spread the shortfall across. That is the "required from here" figure - painful to see, cheaper than the alternative, which is a five-figure surprise split under pressure.

Should prop and avionics have reserves too?

Yes - same logic, smaller numbers. Prop overhauls and avionics refreshes are predictable-ish expenses on long clocks. Resyrv tracks separate accrual rates per component so each fund grows on every flight automatically.
