Training records & compliance
Flight Training Records Software That Enforces Itself
Training records are only useful if they are complete, current, and connected to the schedule. Sky Schedule records every lesson where it happened, tracks every expiring document and inspection, and stops a non-compliant booking before anyone has to catch it by eye.
Compliance is a scheduling problem
The moment a compliance issue matters is the moment a flight is about to happen: a student whose medical expired last week, an aircraft ten hours past its 100-hour, an instructor whose CFI renewal slipped. If the records system does not talk to the scheduler, someone at the front desk has to remember to check. Fly Whiskey Tango describes taking compliance off the front desk entirely once every booking started checking itself.
Student training records
- Lesson-by-lesson records with hours, maneuvers, grading, and instructor sign-off
- Instructor sign-off requirements and aircraft checkouts recorded against the student and enforced on booking
- Medical, government ID, renter insurance, and any custom document with expiration tracking
- Complete record export for checkrides, transfers, and inspections
Instructor and staff currency
Instructor certificates, medicals, flight reviews, and school-specific check requirements are tracked with reminders to the instructor and the chief pilot. Expired items flag reservations that instructor holds so nothing slips into the schedule unnoticed.
Aircraft airworthiness and inspections
Inspections and aircraft documents such as weight and balance are tracked per aircraft against Hobbs, tach, and calendar dates. Expired documents and pending inspections show on the aircraft and on every reservation that uses it. Squawks entered by anyone at the school go to the whole team; moving a squawk to a work order takes the aircraft out of service for the dates you set, and resolving the work order puts it back on the schedule.
AI-assisted compliance
Arlo, Sky Schedule's built-in assistant, surfaces what needs attention: which students have documents expiring this month, which aircraft are within ten hours of an inspection, which instructors have renewals due. It is the daily compliance check the chief instructor used to do by hand, done before the school opens.

Read the storyFlight training records software: questions schools ask
Will Sky Schedule stop a booking if a student's document has expired?
Yes. Expired medicals, missing checkouts or sign-offs, and expired documents flag the reservation so dispatch and the instructor see it before the flight.
Does it track aircraft inspections against Hobbs and tach time?
Yes. Inspections are tracked against hours and calendar dates, and open work orders take the aircraft off the schedule for the dates you set.
Can pilots report squawks?
Yes. Anyone at the school can report a squawk. Open squawks are visible to the whole team, and moving one to a work order takes the aircraft out of service.
Are records exportable for a checkride or an inspection?
Yes. Complete student records, aircraft maintenance history, and instructor activity export on demand.
