New event type – Registered to Manufacturer

For business aviation and helicopter customers, we have recently introduced a new aircraft event, “Registered to Manufacturer”, for brand-new aircraft for which we do not have an assigned order. This is a “temporary” event until the aircraft is delivered or we discover an order customer – at which point we will overwrite the event with a true order event line and follow it with a delivery event.

This event will allow customers to see production activity for types where order backlogs are not transparent. These aircraft show a status of “on order” but do not have a scheduled delivery date assigned to them.
