The Least Administrative Burden of Any Shared Aircraft Platform
Most aircraft partnerships run on WhatsApp messages, spreadsheets, and email chains. Pilot-Next replaces all of that with one platform — and once it's set up, it runs itself. Bookings are confirmed automatically, invoices are generated after each flight, and pilot balances update in real time. Your treasurer gets their weekend back.
Weighing up your options? We put the seven flying club management software platforms side by side — pricing, features, and which size of club each one actually fits. And if you are still deciding how to charge for flight time, our guide on Hobbs versus Tacho time explains what each one really measures.

We switched from spreadsheets to Pilot-Next and it transformed how we manage our aircraft partnership. Settlement used to take hours — now it's done in seconds. Highly recommended for any flying club.
Thomas
Rotterdam Flying Club ·
The maintenance tracking alone is worth it. We get automatic alerts before inspection deadlines, and the digital logbook keeps everything in one place. Our aircraft has never been better managed.
Sarah
Alpine Aero Club ·
Finally an aircraft scheduling tool that just works. Setup took less than 30 minutes and all our pilots were on board the same day. The AI assistant integration is a brilliant touch — we use it every week.
Jan
Vliegclub Noord ·
We tried two other systems before Pilot-Next and both were either too complex or too basic. Pilot-Next hits the sweet spot — simple enough that every pilot picked it up in minutes, powerful enough to handle everything our club actually needs.
Peter
Aeroclub Eindhoven ·
The design is clean and modern — nothing like old aviation software. Everything is where you expect it to be, and it works just as well on mobile as on desktop. Standing at the airfield with your phone and booking in two taps is exactly what we needed.
Lisa
Flugclub München ·
Before Pilot-Next, our treasurer spent a full weekend every quarter sorting invoices and balances. Now it's completely automated. The time savings alone pay for the subscription many times over.
David
Brussels Flying Society ·
What I appreciate most is that it does exactly what you need and nothing more. No bloat, no features you'll never use. Our pilots actually log their flights now because the interface is so straightforward.
Emma
Helvetic Air Club ·
Running a small flying club used to mean endless group chats about who booked what. Pilot-Next solved that completely. The schedule is always clear, invoicing is automatic, and disagreements about costs are a thing of the past.
