UAS Flight Ops

Flight Campaign operations, from paper to digital

Flight Approvals, flight campaigns, and the checklists behind them — one workspace for a UAS flight campaign operation to run its sign-off workflow, log every flight, and keep records ready for an EASA Light UAS Operator Certificate.

No flight without sign-off

A flight approval is filed, reviewed with comments, revised if needed, and approved by someone other than its author — a clear record of who signed off, and when, before anyone flies.

Every flight logged and traceable

Flight Campaigns capture crew, UAVs, and checklists, with takeoff, landing, and flight time rolled up automatically — nothing about a flight campaign day is left to a paper log.

Insights across the operation

A calendar and project rollups turn logged flights into an operational overview, not just an archive — organization-wide, and per pilot.

Hosted your way

Run it on our servers, or on your own company's — either way, your organization gets its own branded, private space, kept completely separate from anyone else's.

Why this, not a paper log

Built differently, not just digitized

Most flight-ops tools stop at "digital checklist." Here's what else is different.

Reviewed like code, not rubber-stamped

Comments land on the exact field, line, or list item they're about — a specific risk item, a specific crew row — not just a single approve/reject button. Revise and resubmit until an Accountable Manager other than the flight approval's own owner signs off.

Checklists tracked live, not filled in after the fact

Preparation, equipment, preflight, and follow-up checklists are scoped to each crew member's actual role and marked off live as the team works through them on test day — not reconstructed from memory once the flight's over.

Multi-tenant from day one

Every organization gets its own subdomain, branding, and reference data — kept completely separate from everyone else's — with usage-based billing built in, not bolted on later.

What's included

Everything the operation needs

From filing a flight approval to closing out the flight campaign it authorized.

Flight Approvals

File, review, and approve flight authorizations with inline comments and a full audit trail, before a single crew member is cleared to fly.

Flight Campaigns & logging

Record every flight campaign's crew, UAVs, and flights flown, with takeoff and landing times and total flight time rolled up automatically.

Checklists

Preparation, equipment, preflight, and follow-up checklists, scoped by crew role and tracked live through test day — not left to memory.

Debriefing findings

Flag what went wrong or what to watch, rated from critical to trivial, and keep it in front of whoever it concerns until they acknowledge it.

Insights, calendar & reports

A month-by-month calendar of every flight campaign, project-by-project rollups, and flight logs that export straight to XLSX — organization-wide, and per pilot.

Roles that match responsibility

Accountable managers review and approve, Pilots in Command file and revise, crew acknowledge before flying — access follows who's actually accountable.

UAV & flight area registry

Shared reference data for aircraft and flight areas, complete with mapped geofences and a one-click PX4 mission-file export, kept current by the team that flies them.

Full audit trail

Every flight approval's status change, decision, and crew acknowledgement is timestamped and attributed — a permanent record of who signed off, and when.

About

How it works

A closer look at the flight approval process and the people behind it.

How a flight approval moves

A flight approval authorizes a specific crew to fly a specific set of tests, and nothing else. Every step below is timestamped, so there's always a record of who approved what, and when.

  1. 1

    File

    A Pilot in Command drafts the flight approval: crew, UAVs, flight areas, the steps to perform, and a risk analysis with mitigations.

  2. 2

    Review

    An Accountable Manager reads it and can comment on any specific step or risk item, requesting changes.

  3. 3

    Approve

    Once satisfied, an Accountable Manager other than the flight approval's own owner approves it — never self-approval.

  4. 4

    Acknowledge

    Every assigned crew member reads the approved flight approval and acknowledges it — only then are they cleared to fly what's written in it.

Every flight, logged and debriefed

Once approved, each flight campaign records its own crew, UAVs, and ground equipment, a flight-by-flight log, and a debriefing note for anything worth flagging — with pre- and post-flight checklists built right in.

Every role has its place

Crew member
Flies what's on an approved, acknowledged flight approval, logs flights, and adds debriefing notes on what happened.
Pilot in Command
Files and revises flight approvals, manages the flight campaigns under them, and closes each one out once nothing more is left to log.
Accountable Manager
Reviews and approves flight approvals filed by others (never their own), with visibility into anything submitted for review.
Admin
Manages accounts — who has a login, and who's an Accountable Manager or Admin themselves.

Built around the EASA Light UAS Operator Certificate

Checked article-by-article against Part C of the EU's Light UAS Operator Certificate regulation (UAS.LUC.010–090). Not a compliance certification by itself — an LUC is granted to an organization, not a piece of software — but built around the same obligations:

  • No flight without an Accountable Manager's sign-off — the same internal control an LUC's self-authorization privilege substitutes for seeking authorization per flight.
  • A documented risk assessment and mitigation tied to the specific operation it was assessed for, not a generic template filled in once and reused.
  • Safety findings that stay in front of whoever they concern until acknowledged, not filed away and forgotten.
  • Every flight approval and acknowledgement timestamped and attributed, never deleted — retention that already exceeds the regulation's 3-year minimum by construction.
