Leading Indian flight academy IGRUA goes digital with FlightLogger

We are delighted to announce that Indira Gandhi Rashtriya Uran Akademi (IGRUA) recently joined the FlightLogger community as our 166th worldwide client and the 3rd in India. IGRUA has taken a significant step towards modernisation by upgrading to FlightLogger’s flight training management system, which replaces an in-house solution built many years ago.

With low fuel prices, rising incomes, and a growing demand for quick access, Indian carriers are expanding their network across India and around the world. Going digital with FlightLogger was essential for IGRUA to meet this demand and stay ahead of the competition. After recommendation from FlightLogger’s very first client in India, Chimes Aviation, and the research of other various software options IGRUA chose to proceed with FlightLogger.
