API with write-access
A few comments have requested write-access to the FSP API, so this Idea joins those all together.
Currently we only support read-only. We will update this Idea if this changes. Thank you!

Group Aircraft / Instructor
I'd like to be able to 'group aircraft' or group aircraft and instructors if possible. We have multiple locations and it would be nice for customers to know which airplane is at which location at all times without having to filter. We also have locations that are for aircraft that are not on our public scheduling calendar, so it would be good to have that in a separate group too. This type of grouping is NOT by aircraft type. Thanks!

Solo Training Flight Briefing
Transport Canada requires a solo student have a briefing by an instructor. We need the ability to define a briefing instructor, who may also be booked on a flight. FSP does not allow an instructor to be double booked, or create a small time block for a briefing. The primary instructor may assign the briefing to another instructor who is in when the solo flight is scheduled.

Training Hub Grade Scale
When setting up lessons with custom grading scales it would be great if you could link the Header to the tasks under the header then edit the header to be able to set a default grade scale and passing grade for those tasks under the header. Example, we use a 0-5 grade scale and then have headers of "Lesson Introduction" and "Lesson Review". Each task under "Lesson Introduction" requires a grade of "1" or higher to pass and "Lesson Review" requires a "2" or higher to pass. Currently I have to go through each task and set that up but…

Reminders - Allow for us to set up multiple intervals
In the current system, we can only select one option for how soon a reminder is sent out prior a lesson's commencement. We'd like the option to add additional reminder slots to account for 24hr, 12hr, 6hr, and 3hr reminders for the same reservation.

New invoice produced when payment received - why?
When you receive a payment against an invoice, a new invoice number is produced by the system, which creates a double up (2 invoice numbers per transaction), and clogs the billing reports with unnecessary invoice numbers. Why not just put the payment flag against the original invoice once its paid? If you feel the need to produce more paperwork, when the second "invoice" is created, can the system use the original invoice number and label the document a receipt so its easy to distinguish when looking at the billing reports.
3 votesThis is something we’ll absolutely need to update when we get further into development with our Maintenance and Inventory features. I can’t say when that will be specifically, but this will get improved in the near future!

View last lesson Button
When scheduling a lesson, add a button to “view previous lesson” so I can quickly review the last lesson with the student instead of having to leave the scheduling screen and go find the last lesson.

more than one document to upload
Allow more than one file be uploaded to a Document to show
ex: front and back of a cert
ex: previous rental agreements, etc. to keep a record of past document and the current one in a single location3 votes -
Create a report to show instructors' work schedule for a specific period.
With a number of casual instructors, a report showing Work Schedule Start and Work Schedule finish times for a specific date range (past or future) would be very helpful.

IFR flag
Make an IFR flag much like the mx reminder and aircraft down flags to notify users when booking or checking out the plane if the plane is not airworthy for IFR or VFR, day or night. We often have people booking planes where it is unclear from the most recent squawks that something for needed for IFR flight or night VFR flight is inop.

Cancellation Reason Options
Cancellation reason could be a two-step process. MX, IP, SP, WX Scheduling Only and Other, and a dropdown below those options for the specific reason. For a flight school, we rely on the cancellation reports from FSP to be correct. More than once I have been moving too fast and clicked and submitted “SP-SP Sick” instead of “WX-Ceiling”. Unfortunately, there is not an Undo. It skews the cancellation reports and challenges my memory to recall who it happened to.

Add a setting for changing the default status display of maintenance reminders.
This would allow better flight planning and maintenance scheduling so that we could choose "All active Statuses" or "Warning & Expired" etc. and have it remain set that way for user preference. As it is, it resets to Warning & Expired ever time.

Subscribe to squawks to get status updates
Currently only Admins/Maintenance personnel have the ability to enable Email notifications for when an Aircraft Squawk is created. Would be nice if the general user community could also get Email notifications (if they choose), maybe even for selective aircraft when squawks are created. Maybe even an option to "follow" certain squawks, such that I would get email updates on certain issues when the status changes. Since I may not want to fly an aircraft until a certain issue is addressed.

View Total Hours Trained
We all have flight books.
But it would be nice to see some high-level stats (totals) of how many hours trained, maybe broken down by plane or instructor.

Have a "wizard" to match students with available plane and CFI.
One a student has flow several training flights there is data to establish what they "normally" fly. So a student pilot has flown the C172N four times and the C172M once, three lessons with CFI Bob and one with CFI Karen. They have booked reservations on weekday afternoons and Saturdays. That student probably wants to know anytime a C172M or N model is available for 2 or 3 hours and Bob or Karen are also available. They probably don't care about flying with 310 with the chief flight instructor.
Until patterns are established, default priorities or custom set priorities could…

Allow more than one photo of each aircraft to be uploaded. Example an external photo of the aircraft, plus one of the panel.
Would help customers know ahead of time what the panel looks like and whether they are familiar or not, and if not questions to ask their instructor.

Add the ability for the student to rate each lesson as a way to provide CFI feedback and track performance
It would be nice if the student could submit a quick survey/rating of each (or random) lessons. A "net promoter score" of sorts. Allow this function to either not be visible to CFI or anonymous from the CFI's perspective. This would help provide another data point the chief instructor could use to track CFI performance and know which CFI's might need more coaching or mentoring as well as track overall cust service performance of school.

Transactions list with payment type
When you look at an individuals transaction list, it would be great if there was another column that lists how they paid. Account, credit card, cash. Quick glance rather than running a report or clicking on each transaction to see the invoice.
