Help for a Instructor
Run your flying day: check in, dispatch, record the lesson, close it out.
- Your first week with FlyerOSThe order to set things up in, locations, aircraft, roles, people, a course, then your first booking.
- Your dashboard and the Action Required listWhat the dashboard shows, and why the Action Required list is worth clearing before anything else.
- How the operating day runs in FlyerOSThe shape of a flying day, check-in, the pre-dispatch gate, dispatch, and a clean close-out.
- Checking in a flightHow to check a flight in on the operations board, and what check-in confirms before dispatch.
- Closing out a flightHow to close a flight cleanly so its times, counters and sign-off flow through the rest of the system.
- Grading a lesson, and how it is recordedHow an instructor grades a lesson against the syllabus, the competency scales, and how the grade is signed, recorded and reflected in a student's progress.
- Recording a solo authorisationHow to authorise a student to fly solo, what it lets them do, and how to withdraw it.
- The difference between an exercise and a lessonAn exercise is a fixed item in the syllabus; a lesson is a flight you actually flew. Here is how they relate.
- Recording counters, and why they can't go backwardsHow aircraft counters are recorded, why a reading cannot decrease, and how to fix a genuine mistake.
- Weather and scrubbed flightsHow FlyerOS brings weather into the day and records a flight scrubbed for weather distinctly from one scrubbed for tech, so your utilisation figures tell the truth.
- Entering a flight after the factHow to record a flight that happened when the system was not in front of you, with its times and counters, so the record and the invoice still reflect what actually flew.
- Why was a booking blocked?A blocked booking always tells you the reason. Here is how to read it and what to do next.
- The in-app flight toolsThe everyday pilot tools built into FlyerOS, an E6B flight computer and a holding pattern entry aid, so students do not need a separate app for the basics.
- Your account and securityWhere to find your own profile, preferences and security settings, including your password and how notifications reach you.
