Event fee

An event fee is a charge applied per occurrence of a counted event on a usage log, independent of the time-based usage rate. The most common examples are a landing fee (a fixed amount per landing) and a touch-and-go fee (a fixed amount per touch-and-go).

Event fees are configured per asset. Each entry carries a counter key, a display label, and a rate. At finalisation time, each active counter on each usage log produces one event-charge transaction equal to the count times the configured rate.

On aircraft, event fees are home-airfield fees: they apply only when the flight’s arrival matches the asset’s home airfield, resolved from the asset’s configured home airfield and falling back to a syndicate-wide default if one is set. An away arrival, or no home airfield configured, means no event fees for that log (the time-based usage charge is unaffected). The match ignores case and surrounding spaces. See the usage log fields reference for the full rule.
