Aircraft & aviation operations

Pitwall OS Aviation

Airworthiness, lifing and training in one register

Aviation turns Pitwall OS Assets into an airworthiness record system. Airframes, engines, rotors and avionics each carry their own hours, cycles and inspection state, so nothing flies on a lapsed component.

Flight schools get syllabus tracking and instructor rosters on the same records, which means utilisation, maintenance and training all read from one source.

What it adds

  • Aircraft fleet with hours, cycles and airworthiness state
  • Engine, rotor and avionics lifing
  • Maintenance checks, defects and inspection records
  • Training syllabi and instructor rosters
  • Lease utilisation reporting

How it runs

01

Register

Add the airframe with its serials, then attach engines, rotors and avionics as lifed children.

02

Fly

Log hours and cycles per flight; lifing counters advance automatically.

03

Maintain

Checks fall due, defects are raised, and inspection records stay attached to the component.

04

Report

Utilisation, lease hours and syllabus progress come out as reports rather than spreadsheets.

Case studies

Each of these is a live demo workspace you can sign into. The companies are fictional, created to show how Pitwall OS Aviation works in a real operation.

Red Mesa Rotor Academy · Rotary flight school

Training hours and airframe lifing that agree with each other

A rotary school was tracking student progression in one spreadsheet and airframe hours in another, so an aircraft could be booked for a lesson it wasn't legal to fly.

What they use in Aviation

  • Airframe, engine and rotor lifing by hours and cycles
  • Maintenance checks and defect records against components
  • Training syllabi with instructor rosters
  • Instructor scheduling checked against airworthiness state

Outcome

Bookings now respect component life, and every lesson flown updates the maintenance clock on the same record.

BlueArc Jet Leasing · Business aviation leasing and management

The lease, the customer and the aircraft on one record

A leasing and management company was holding aircraft technical status, lease terms and customer utilisation in separate systems, so answering a simple lease-hours question meant three lookups.

What they use in Aviation

  • Connected aircraft records with engine, APU, avionics and life-limited component trees
  • Lease terms, obligations and end dates against the aircraft
  • Eight-stage leasing process from enquiry to delivery
  • Lease-hour utilisation reporting for customer organisations

Outcome

Technical status, commercial terms and utilisation now read from one aircraft record, so lease reviews and preparation are planned from the same data.

Vale Air & Soaring Club · Gliding and flying club

A club fleet, a training path and 7,000 movements a year on one register

A mixed gliding and powered club was running launch sheets, membership records, instructor availability and aircraft maintenance separately, so nobody could see whether a glider was both free and serviceable before promising a trial flight.

What they use in Aviation

  • Nine aircraft — six gliders, two powered and one parachute ship — as lifed asset records
  • Winch and aerotow launch logging that advances airframe hours
  • Six-stage gliding training path with instructor sign-off
  • Membership types, booking activities and event days against the same contacts

Outcome

Trial flights, training slots and aircraft hire are booked against real availability, and every launch updates the maintenance clock on the airframe it flew.
