Cleared for
takeoff.

01 / THE PLATFORM

One system for the whole flight line.

Five jobs that used to live in a shoebox, a spreadsheet, and three text threads — now a single connected loop.

See your Part 61 progress by the hour and by the maneuver — what's done, what's next, and exactly what's still standing between you and your solo or checkride.

FLAGSWhat's left before solo & checkride

Money never has to come up between a student and their instructor. Charges settle when a flight closes and split to the CFI and owner on their own — instructors get paid on time, and the lesson stays about flying.

HOLDSEach charge until the flight closes out
PAYSCFI & owner automatically, on time

Book from real availability across private, CFI-listed, and public aircraft — with maintenance windows, open squawks, and conflicts already accounted for.

Close out a flight and it logs itself. Your totals, currency, and endorsements stay up to date without anyone typing a single row.

EXPORTS8710-ready totals whenever you need them

Owners list and share their aircraft by tier; renters only ever see the planes they're actually cleared and rated to fly.

Book it. Fly it. Close it out.

WPT 01
Book
Pick a plane (and instructor, if it is a lesson). The system only offers slots that are legal and available.
WPT 02
Fly
Check in with Hobbs and tach, fly the flight, then check out. The clock and the money are held live.
WPT 03
Close
One tap closes the flight. Logbook, syllabus, charges, and payouts all settle downstream.

The moment a flight closes, the logbook entry posts, syllabus progress advances, the escrowed charge trues up, and payouts split to the instructor and plane owner — automatically.

From the first discovery flight to the checkride — every tail number, endorsement, and dollar accounted for.

03Who It's For

Five roles. One flight line.

Roles stack. A CFI is also a pilot; an owner flies their own plane. Your dashboard composes itself around what you actually do.

Is it legal to fly?
Answered before you book.

Medicals, flight reviews, 100-hour and annual status all feed the booking engine. If a flight wouldn't be legal, Vector61 warns you — or blocks it — before the slot is ever held.
