A&P school software that doesn't treat you as an afterthought.

Nearly every aviation school platform is built for pilots. If you train mechanics too, you already know how that ends: a flight-training system for one half of your school, spreadsheets and a filing cabinet for the other.

SkyPath runs Part 61, 141 and 147 in one platform — one roster, one ledger, one set of records.

Why combined schools end up with two systems

The pattern is so common it's almost a rule: the flight side gets software, the maintenance side gets improvised.

Curriculum lives outside the system

Your AMT curriculum — General, Airframe, Powerplant — is tracked in spreadsheets because the platform only understands flight syllabi and stage checks.

Practical projects on paper

Hands-on task sign-offs get recorded on printed sheets, then re-keyed, then stored somewhere an inspector can't easily follow.

Two rosters, one student

A student moving from pilot to mechanic training — or doing both — exists twice, with two balances that never quite reconcile.

The cost isn't the second subscription. It's the reconciliation: every month someone manually squares two systems, and every audit means assembling records from both.

What SkyPath does for Part 147

Built alongside the flight-training side, not bolted on after.

Maintenance tracking, actually in the product

Real screens from the platform — not mockups.

Because maintenance tracking is in the same system as training, a maintenance hold on a tail automatically blocks the schedule — the aircraft can't be dispatched for a lesson it isn't legal to fly.

Note the distinction that trips schools up: tracking maintenance on your aircraft and running a maintenance training program are different products. Several platforms do the first. Very few do the second.

Common questions

Is there management software built for Part 147 A&P schools?

Very little, which is the honest state of the market. Most aviation platforms are built for flight training and treat maintenance instruction as out of scope — that's why so many combined schools run two systems. SkyPath covers Part 61, 141 and 147 in one platform, including AMT curriculum tracking, practical project records and FAR 43.9 sign-offs.

Can one system really run both a flight school and an A&P program?

Yes, and that was the design goal. Pilot and AMT students share one roster and one billing ledger, while the system applies the right curriculum structure and records requirements to each program. A student enrolled in both appears once.

Does it handle FAR 43.9 record entries?

Yes. The sign-off form captures description of work, completion date, signature and certificate number, and attaches the entry to both the aircraft record and the person who performed the work.

We're a standalone A&P school with no flight training. Does that work?

Yes. You simply don't use the flight-training modules. Pricing is per aircraft, so a school with a small training fleet pays accordingly.

What about our existing records?

Student roster, aircraft list, balances and training records are imported during onboarding rather than left to you. Ask us to confirm in writing what transfers from your current setup.
