Aircraft maintenance planning for a training fleet
FlyerOS models each aircraft’s maintenance against the schedule under Part-ML, so a due check, an expiring ARC or an open defect makes the aircraft unbookable before it can be flown out of limits.
What it does
Due checks ground the aircraft
A maintenance due-date, an open defect or a deferral makes an aircraft unbookable in the calendar the moment it is recorded.
The forecast looks forward
An aircraft that will be out of hours by the fourteenth cannot be booked for the fourteenth, because availability is evaluated for the time of the flight.
Counter readings with provenance
Hours and cycles record their source, and corrections append rather than overwrite, so the forecast can be trusted.
Under Part-ML
The maintenance programme, the ARC, directives and life-limited items are structured data with limits the schedule reads.
Questions schools ask
- What does aircraft maintenance planning software do for a flight school?
- It keeps each aircraft’s maintenance state, due-lists, defects and the ARC, and wires it to the schedule, so the roster automatically respects airworthiness and an aircraft due a check cannot be booked past it.
- Is FlyerOS a maintenance organisation or CAMO?
- No. It is the operational system of record; it holds airworthiness status and enforces it in the schedule. It does not replace your maintenance organisation or sign off maintenance.
- What happens when an ARC expires?
- The aircraft stops being dispatchable from the moment of expiry, and any booking against it after that instant fails with the reason shown.
