MESSAGING
Direct and group messaging with other pilots. No phone number required — your account is tied to your FAA airman record, not your contacts.
FAA VERIFICATION

OPERATIONS
• Hangar bookings and availability scheduling
• Maintenance squawks and aircraft status
• A marketplace for aircraft, parts, and services
• Flight debriefs and logs
