Instructor availability: make training plannable

Training stands or falls on one question: when is which instructor available? Aerosuite makes instructor availability plannable — for flight schools just as much as for clubs with their own training.

In many flight schools planning hangs on individual people and phone calls: a student wants to fly, the instructor has to be asked, a suitable aircraft is missing. Aerosuite replaces this chain with a shared instructor availability. Each instructor maintains their own times, and from availability, qualification and a free aircraft a training booking is created in one step.

Maintain availability and find it instantly

Instructors enter their available times themselves — on the computer or the phone. Students and planners see immediately when training is possible and book the slot together with a suitable aircraft. Qualifications are taken into account: anyone needing IR training only sees authorised instructors.

  • Qualification and type overview per instructor
  • Training booking with student, instructor and aircraft in one step
  • Conflict checking against other appointments and maintenance windows

What goes into a training booking

A training booking connects several resources. Aerosuite checks them all at once before the appointment is set:

From the training flight to the student file

Logged training flights feed the training statistics: hours flown per student, progress in the training programme, instructor utilisation. After the flight the instructor records the contents of the lesson as a digital training record in the student file — so training management and student always share the same status.
