Built for how Florida operators fly

A typical operator runs a Part 141 program with a mix of domestic and foreign-national students, multiple aircraft types, and significant TSA / AFSP compliance overhead.

Major training markets
  • Miami KOPF / KTMB
  • Orlando KISM / KORL
  • Daytona Beach KDAB
  • Tampa KVDF / KPCM
  • Fort Lauderdale KFXE
Climate & training notes

Year-round VFR conditions for the bulk of the year, with summer convective weather (CB/TS) and afternoon thunderstorms shaping daily training schedules.

Florida schools train a high percentage of non-U.S. citizens, which means TSA AFSP case tracking is a daily compliance task — not an edge case.

Notable Florida aviation programs

  • Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University (Daytona Beach)

    One of the largest aviation universities in the world; collegiate Part 141 training program.

  • ATP Flight School

    Multi-location career flight training with a major Florida footprint.

Florida FAQ

What does Aloft360 cost for a flight school in Florida?
Aloft360 Pro is $39/month for up to 6 aircraft with unlimited members. Max ($99/mo) covers up to 50 aircraft. Starter ($9/mo) is for solo aircraft owners. The Billing add-on is +$29/mo and the Professional / Charter add-on is +$49/mo. There are no per-instructor or per-student fees and a 30-day free trial requires no credit card.
Can I migrate my school in Florida from Flight Schedule Pro or Flight Circle?
The member import assistant supports CSV column mapping, validation, and invitation review. Aircraft use guided setup; historical reservations, inspection records, flight logs, and balances need separate entry or reconciliation. See Switching to Aloft360 in Resources for the supported scope and sample preview.
How does Aloft360 handle TSA / AFSP compliance for non-U.S. citizen students?
Each student profile stores citizenship status, AFSP case number, approval date, and expiry date. Status badges (Approved / Pending / Expired) surface on the member list, and the data is admin-only — visible to admin, owner, and CFI roles. Florida schools that train foreign nationals use this every day.
Does Aloft360 work for Part 141 schools in Florida?
Yes. Training records, endorsements, and stage checks are logged with full date/time/CFI metadata, which is the audit trail Part 141 inspectors look for. Aloft360 is in active use at Part 141 operators today.
What features matter most for Florida operators specifically?
Florida schools train a high percentage of non-U.S. citizens, which means TSA AFSP case tracking is a daily compliance task — not an edge case.
