SimpleFBO was created by a student pilot who experienced firsthand the frustrations with existing platforms. We built a solution that focuses on what flight schools actually need: simplicity, great user experience, and affordability.
Manage as many active students as you need without worrying about per-student fees or limits. Our platform scales with your flight school, whether you're training 10 students or 100. Track each student's progress, manage training records, and coordinate flight schedules all in one place.
Your instructors can customize lessons and flight plans for each student, creating a personalized learning experience. Track individual progress, manage training milestones, and ensure every student gets the attention they need to succeed. Our platform makes it easy to see at a glance where each student is in their training journey.
Assign company quizzes and FAR/AIM system quizzes (like magnetic compass deviation and advanced compass turning errors) with required completion dates, and use aircraft quizzes to confirm renters know your specific airframes before they book. Built for flight schools that want consistent training standards without extra tools.
Provide comprehensive training programs with our integrated ground school features. Manage curriculum, track student progress through ground training, and ensure your students are well-prepared for their flight training. Everything is connected, so you can see the complete picture of each student's education.
Coordinate multiple aircraft, instructors, and students efficiently with our intuitive calendar system. Avoid double-bookings, optimize aircraft utilization, and make scheduling simple for both your staff and students. Our reservation system helps you maximize your fleet's availability while keeping everything organized. Every booking captures a destination airport and a reservation type — Dual Instruction, Student Solo, Pilot Rental, and more — color-coded on the calendar so staff can see at a glance what each flight is for.
Decide exactly what your students and instructors fill in when an aircraft is checked in — landings, fuel used, anything specific to your training program — and mark each item billable or informational. Billable items are ready to invoice the moment check-in is complete.
Manage instructor schedules, track instructor availability, and coordinate lessons seamlessly. Our platform helps you match the right instructor with the right student at the right time, making your operations run smoothly.
Keep your training fleet in top condition with automated maintenance tracking and scheduling. Stay compliant with maintenance requirements, track service history, and plan ahead to minimize aircraft downtime. Never miss a maintenance deadline or wonder when an aircraft is due for service.
Students and instructors report discrepancies directly from the aircraft's page — with photos and a status thread — instead of a note that sits until the next scheduled inspection.
Our Flight School Basic plan is just $25 per aircraft per month with no hidden fees and no per-student charges. What you see is what you pay. We believe flight schools shouldn't have to pay exorbitant fees just to manage their operations effectively.
Store and manage all your aircraft documents, maintenance records, student training records, and compliance paperwork in one centralized location. No more searching through filing cabinets or email threads—everything you need is at your fingertips when you need it.
Our dashboards provide you with the latest trend predictions so you can optimize your fleet management and operations. Make data-driven decisions that save time and reduce operational costs. Replace time-consuming manual processes with automated solutions that work seamlessly together.
