Key Takeaways

Generated from the text of customer reviews

FlightLogger provides flight school management for aviation training organizations. Flight schools and approved training organizations (ATO) use it to manage training operations and daily tasks. Reviewers praise its ease of use, while some report issues with reporting and specific workflows. The latest FlightLogger update brings three additions: Combined Syllabus Builder, Float Time Logging, and Centralized Student Progress.

Our Verdict

FlightLogger is a good fit for established flight schools and ATOs that need more than a general LMS can provide. Training activities and day-to-day workflows can all be managed in the same system, which becomes useful as a program gets larger. Smaller schools with less training activity may find the cost difficult to justify. It makes the most sense for organizations looking for aviation-specific software that can accommodate a growing operation.

FlightLogger Features

Scheduling And Resource Management

FlightLogger’s scheduling tools cover the main parts of a training timetable. Staff can book students and assign instructors to lessons. Aircraft can also be assigned based on availability. The system takes aircraft maintenance into account, so a plane that is not ready for use does not get assigned to a lesson.

Digital Grading And Lesson Logging

Instructors can record what happened during a lesson in the student’s digital record. They can enter a grade and leave comments about the student’s performance. FlightLogger keeps these entries with the student’s previous training activity, making it possible to look back at earlier lessons and assessments.

Aircraft And Maintenance Management

FlightLogger keeps an aircraft’s maintenance information with its operational record. Staff can record squawks and check the aircraft’s current status before it is assigned to training. This information is also available when staff are planning upcoming lessons.

Competency-Based Training

CBTA Pro adds Competency-Based Training and Assessment tools to FlightLogger. Instructors can assess pilot skills against defined competency areas and record the results during training. The module is designed for programs that follow competency-based training frameworks from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) or the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).

Safety Management

FlightLogger features a Safety Management System for recording safety reports and risk assessments. Staff can enter details about an event and document the related risk. Safety information remains available in the platform for later review. This can also help staff spot repeated issues in their safety records.

Business Insights

Business Insights gives managers reports on activity across the operation. They can review aircraft use and see figures for productivity or cancellations. Performance data is also available for review. This provides a broader view of how the training operation is running.

“Track trainee progress”

Pros

I see it as an ATO-oriented solution that makes it easy to follow compliance and track trainee progress. From the trainee side, the system is easy and easy to use.

Cons

Because the system isn't AOC oriented, I end up needing to use a second system for tracking pilot training. Building programs also feels tricky when I don't do it regularly.

“Convenient to handle reports”

Pros

It's very convenient for me to handle bookings and reports. I also find checking and monitoring hours easy and the CBTA addition makes it even more valuable.

Cons

I think it would make a big difference if we had a tool to calculate overall student grades at the end of training or specific phases, so cadets could be graded more clearly on performance.

“Pretty nice service”

Pros

The customer service has been outstanding. They respond quickly and even take suggestions into account when making improvements. The program itself feels well thought out and reliable, I couldn't really ask for more.

Cons

Sometimes, because there are so many clients, the personalization options feel a bit limited.
