THE SKYDIVING MARKETPLACE.
Buy and sell gear with the whole sport, not one app's users. Photos, price, who and where. And the thing nobody else has: a canopy here can arrive carrying its own logbook, like a car with its book.
Fresh drops
The newest gear on Hangar Bay. Anything tagged EXAMPLE is a demonstration card, not for sale.

Carries its history
These listings arrive with a Canopy Passport snapshot attached. Not a paid placement: nobody can buy their way into this row, and there is no way to.
Everything that goes in the bag
22 categories, every one with its own fields, so a listing knows what it is and search actually works.
Three steps. No drama.
LIST IT, FREE
Photos, price, what it is, where you are. Under two minutes for a helmet. No listing fee and no paid bumps, ever.
ATTACH THE LOGBOOK
Selling a wing you fly with FlightX? One tap writes its Canopy Passport into a dated PDF snapshot on the advert. Optional, always, and helmets never hear about it.
SELL, THE LOGBOOK MOVES WITH IT
Share the link anywhere, including the Facebook groups. Settle it directly between the two of you and there is no fee from us, ever. Or run it through Escrow.com, available on any sale at any price: a 3 percent seller fee on completion once that goes live for real. The live logbook moves to the buyer either way.
Your money never touches us.
That is the design.
Settle directly between buyer and seller and we are not involved in payment at all. Or put it through Escrow.com, a licensed third party, available on any sale at any price: the buyer's funds sit with them, the seller ships, and money moves only when the buyer accepts. Hangar Bay never holds, receives or transmits your purchase funds, either way, and never will.
What it costs, stated here so you do not have to go looking: listing stays free forever, and there are no paid bumps, ever. On the sales that go through Escrow.com, a completed sale carries a 3 percent seller fee once that lane is live for real, and Escrow.com's own fee is paid by the buyer. The full breakdown is on the selling page, and how the two lanes work is on how payment works.
Like a car, but for your canopy
A wing logged in the FlightX app carries a Canopy Passport: its logbook. Listing it here writes a snapshot of that logbook as a PDF, frozen at that moment. The advert shows the snapshot. The live logbook stays with the owner until the sale, then moves to the buyer and keeps growing.
- Written at post time. The listing carries the PDF, never live data.
- Frozen and dated. What the buyer saw is what the buyer saw.
- Tamper evident. Fingerprinted at creation, so a swapped file is provable.
- The serial is never shown. Not even partly. It travels with the passport when the wing sells.
- Hours as well as jumps. Canopy time, opening to landing, because a wing wears by time under load.
- Gaps show as gaps. Honest records are worth more. That is the point.
What we check, and what we cannot
What Hangar Bay checks
- Facts we show as ours are ones our systems witnessed. Everything else is labelled as declared by the owner.
- Anyone can report a listing or a seller, account or no account, and a person reads it.
- Your email address is never shown on a listing or a profile.
We do not review listings before they appear. Nothing here is checked by a rigger, and no wing is inspected by us at any point.
What Hangar Bay cannot check
- The gear itself. Only a rigger can, with the gear in their hands.
- The money. FlightX never holds your funds.
- What someone typed into their own logbook. Self-declared stays labelled self-declared.
- Whether a canopy suits you. That conversation belongs with your coach and your rigger.
News from FlightX and Hangar Bay
Gear worth knowing about, what we are building in the app, and the occasional thing from the school. Listing is free and open to everyone right now, so this is a mailing list, not a waiting list.
No spam, no selling your address, and you can leave any time. Cards marked EXAMPLE are demonstrations, not gear for sale.
