First-Solo is a cloud-based solution for flight school management. It integrates student scheduling, syllabus management, maintenance records, accounting and other features. It is designed to be used from web or mobile and can be used from both laptop and desktop as well as tablets and smartphones.  

First-Solo’s scheduling software will allow dispatchers to easily rearrange schedules in the cases where aircraft maintenance or weather conditions mean that the original plan needs to be changed. It will also provide a mechanism for optimizing scheduling to get more flight hours out of your fleet each week.
