Scheduling around New Mexico flying conditions
Field elevations from 4,000 to over 7,000 feet make density altitude a daily briefing item, and spring winds and summer monsoon storms shape the schedule. Sunny days are plentiful, so utilization is high and inspections come up fast. Frost Aviation's story shows what running about 140 students and 200+ flights a month looks like here.
Sky Schedule puts live METAR next to every reservation, lets students rebook from their phone inside the rules you set, and keeps the schedule, the invoice, and the training record in sync when the plan changes. A cancelled 7 AM slot at KABQ shows up as open availability for the next student instantly, not after someone updates a spreadsheet.
