Any person who has ever visited an airport knows them. They are the very center of information for everyone, and nobody ever walked through an airport without studying them at least once. They are the departure/arrival info boards.
At FlightLogger, we have taken inspiration from the airports and made a brand-new Departure/Arrival board specially tailored for flight training organizations. The new live-updated page will be available without any additional costs for all FlightLogger partners.
Today is truly a big day for FlightLogger as we announce the launch of our brand-new departure/arrival board integrated into the FlightLogger flight school management platform, which is today used by more than 120+ pilot training organizations around the world. With the new Departure/Arrival board, we add a state-of-the-art solution to provide valuable, real-time information to pilot students, instructors, and staff working at pilot training organizations using FlightLogger.
Displaying live flight scheduling and registration data
According to FlightLogger CEO Kenneth Jeppesen, the new departure/arrival board adds a central point of flight information – one that pilot training organizations can easily display on their info screens as well as on the personal devices of their users.
“The system picks up live data directly from the database of our partners’ FlightLogger platform, where all flight scheduling and live registrations are simultaneously updated”, explains Kenneth Jeppesen. This way, the scheduling of aircraft and simulators gets updated in real-time on the departure/arrival board. Flight registrations that are done live onboard the aircraft are instantly displayed directly on the Departure/Arrival board, giving ground personnel, instructors, and students full information about delays, fuel levels, and other valuable information that might affect their next flights.
The Departure/Arrival page keeps ground staff updated with live information on current and scheduled flights.
One-click access to free flight tracking services
One of the integrated features of the new Departure/Arrival board is one-click access to live flight tracking using any of the free online tracking services like AirNav RadarBox, FlightRadar24, and FlightAware.
“For the typical pilot training organization, this feature is a smart way to save some money by eliminating the need for otherwise expensive aircraft tracking hardware installed onboard their aircraft since most aircraft already have the necessary equipment for flight tracking via such free online services”, Kenneth Jeppesen explains.
Simply explained, each aircraft shown on the Departure/Arrival screen contains a link that opens another browser window displaying live tracking of the flight via the training organization’s chosen provider.
Complements best practice of flight planning and registration
The new Departure/Arrival page is built to provide valid information to FlightLogger users all the way from scheduling to completing a flight and afterward accessing flight records, statistics, and reports. This video explains FlightLogger’s recommended best practice and how the Departure/Arrival page provides relevant information throughout the typical operation.
Available for free for all FlightLogger partners
While FlightLogger has invested heavily in developing the new Departure/Arrival board, FlightLogger partners will not pay extra to get it, as it is simply added to the current solution for all FlightLogger partners.
The addition of the Departure/Arrival board fits perfectly into the best-practice school flight workflow that we promote at FlightLogger, explained on this page.
