Flight training board
Each day is a bar from 0600 to 2200. A shaded stretch is open end to end, so a 3-hour lesson can start at any :00 or :30 inside it. The 1900–2200 tail of the bar is there for night flights.
My availability: tap a day’s bar to edit its windows. Instructor mode: Book a lesson drops a green lesson where you tap; tap that green bar again to assign a tail number or remove it. Mark unavailable blocks times the instructor can’t teach, shown as red hatching, which can’t be booked over.
Weeks alternate from pickup Monday 17:00 to drop-off the following Monday 08:00. Tap a week badge to flip it. Solo weeks are 0600–0900 and 1500–1900 Mon–Thu, 0600–1900 Fri–Sun. Daughter weeks are closed Mon–Thu, 0900–1500 Friday, 0900–1600 with her along on the weekend.
Flights fills in on its own once a booked lesson’s end time has passed — then you add HOBBS time, the aircraft, the airports and runways, takeoff and landing counts, and the individual elements you worked. Takeoffs and landings are counted separately, day and night, so a takeoff-only lesson logs as exactly that. Skills tracks all of it against the FAA Part 61.109 minimums and shows how much of each area of operation you have covered.
The 3-hour booked block is what gets billed as instruction. HOBBS time is what counts toward the 61.109 minimums. The board keeps them apart everywhere, including in Cost.
Both lists live on the Flights tab and start collapsed. Aircraft carry a card rate, a cash rate, and a wet or dry basis — dry rates exclude fuel, so cost adds burn × fuel price. Instructors carry an hourly rate; the one picked on a flight sets the instruction cost for that flight.
Everything saves to the database as you type. The line under the tabs shows the last sync. If it says changes are held in this browser, you are offline — they go up as soon as you reconnect.
