Training records
Grade the lesson. The record writes itself.
The instructor grades the exercise at close-out, the training record is written and signed against the flight, and the student’s place in the syllabus moves on. No evening paperwork.

At close-out of PPL Ex 12, four competencies are graded in turn: straight and level, climbing and descending, medium turns and airmanship. Once graded, the training record is written and signed against the flight, and the student’s syllabus progress moves from 12 to 13 of 18 exercises.
Your syllabus, as the product.
The course is modelled as exercises and competencies, so a lesson is graded against the real syllabus your school teaches, not a free-text box someone fills in later.
Graded at the aircraft.
The instructor grades each competency at close-out, while the flight is fresh, and the grade is tied to that flight and that aircraft, not reconstructed from memory that evening.
The record is the by-product.
Grading the lesson writes the training record and signs it against the flight. There is no second act of “doing the paperwork”. The record already exists the moment the lesson is closed.
Progress you can see.
Every graded lesson moves the student along the syllabus, so a head of training can see who is where, what’s next and who is ready for test, across the whole cohort, at a glance.

The cost
The paperwork is the second flight.
The lesson ends and the real work starts: the grade sheet, the training file, the progress board, each updated by hand and each a chance to drift out of step. FlyerOS makes the record a by-product of grading the flight, so the file, the progress and the signature are done the moment the lesson is closed.
