There are really only two reasons to make any change in your business.
It either increases revenue or lowers your costs. Our schedule has
repeatedly done both.
The very first time our schedule was installed, the FBO saw a documented
33% increase in rental hours over the previous year. An increase that has
been sustained.
Your mileage may vary, but you should see a marked increase in rental hours
and customer satisfaction.
We highly recommend that you have a complete web site detailing all of
your services, including your flight shedule. Using your website, student or pilot,
should be able to get the answers to all of the questions you are currently
answering over the phone. When a full web presence has been developed, we have seen a
drop in phone calls by as much as 75% with a marked increase in your customer
satisfaction.
Let us make the Internet work for you.

Just a quick note to tell you about what happened at Aero-tech last week:
In Lexington we are in the middle of our Kids Summer Flight Camp. We usually fly about 300 kids in 6 weeks.
Simultaneously, in Louisville we started Flight Camp this summer for the first time � 45 kids.
Normally the flight camp director can access our on-line schedule to schedule these flights.
Everything has been running smoothly until the remnants of Dennis bought us days of poor flying weather.
Suddenly on Thursday we had a backlog of flights that had been postponed earlier in the week in LEX.
And a window of time of good weather to get them done in. No problem, do a quick maintenance
move on 2 aircraft and CFIs from LOU to come to LEX to help out. We flew throughout the daylight
hours. Now mind you, all we had to do at the airport was keep straight which planes and pilots were
in which city � the flight camp director was at home keeping straight the which-kid was in which plane
itinerary and communicating with parents via telephone to get the kids to the airport. 10 airplanes
flying simultaneously in flight camps.
Then on Friday, we moved 2 planes and pilots to LOU to get them caught up over there. Same
hair-raising issue � different city.
We could not have done this without the online schedule system and the features it
offers. Thanks for giving us the tools to make our customers happy.

I used a paper schedule for over 20 years. I was aprehensive about
moving it to the Internet. But after seeing what it has done for my business
I don't ever want to be without it.

I'm a flight instructor. My students call me at home after hours and
ask if we can fly on a certain date and time. The schedule is available
24/7 and I can find out quickly if a plane is available. If it is, I schedule
it immediately. This is very convenient.

What makes me excited to rent from my FBO is the flexibility
to rent whenever I want. As a renter, I am not affected when the line staff can
not reach the schedulle or during non-business hours. And actually, I fly more
because of it.

It's clean and loads fast. It gives me the ability to do what I need to do
without a lot of clutter. It's very user friendly. The site is especially
helpful while at work. When its a nice day, I check the schedule to see what's
available. I've been on the phone many times and the question of flying comes
up. I can check the schedule while still on the phone and make a reservation.
I love it!

I love it. I work full time and it isn't always convenient to call the airport.
With the web schedule I can get on anytime and view the availability for both
planes and instructors. The site also has information on the ground school. It's
like a talking telephone and if I can't find what I'm looking for, I just send
an e-mail.
