CFI WorkflowCertified Flight Instructor (CFI / CFII / MEI)

CFI syllabus tracking that actually keeps a student on the ACS

Plan the lesson, fly the flight, debrief the maneuvers, and update the student's ACS progress in one platform — without paper, without spreadsheets.

Scenario

It is Tuesday morning. You have a Private Pilot student at Lesson 11 (steep turns + emergency procedures). You also have an Instrument student at Lesson 4 (basic attitude instrument flying). Both flights are today. Neither one has a written debrief from last week, and the school office still wants you to update the syllabus by Friday.

How AeroCopilot handles it

  1. 1
    Open the student in AeroCopilot CFI mode

    AeroCopilot pulls the student's lesson plan, last debrief notes, and the ACS gates that still need work. No spreadsheet open in another tab.

  2. 2
    Generate the lesson brief

    The AI copilot drafts the pre-flight brief from the lesson plan and current weather. Print it, edit it, send it to the student via email — one click.

  3. 3
    Fly the lesson with GPS auto-tracking

    Marathon Rank 9 GPS auto-tracking captures the flight track in real time. No need to remember to start a recorder.

  4. 4
    Debrief with Marathon Rank 2 maneuver detection

    Steep turns, stalls, traffic patterns auto-detected. ACS gate evaluator scores each maneuver against PTS tolerances. Annotate any gate that needs more work.

  5. 5
    Update the syllabus and student progress

    Mark the lesson complete, mark gates met, mark gates needing rework. The school office sees it in real time.

Outcome

You finish the Friday paperwork during Tuesday's post-flight, while it is fresh. The student sees a clear progress chart. The chief flight instructor sees an audit trail. No paper, no spreadsheet, no reminder emails.
