ShouldIFly

ShouldIFly is a comprehensive toolkit for pilots to systematically evaluate flight risks and maintain personal minimums standards.

Key Features:

• Conduct structured pre-flight risk evaluations using the official FAA Flight Risk Assessment Tool (FRAT) methodology. The app guides pilots through systematic assessment of pilot factors, flight conditions, airport considerations, and operational parameters for both VFR and IFR operations.
• Establish and track personal operating limits across multiple categories including experience requirements, currency standards, weather conditions, fuel reserves, and rest requirements. Compare current conditions against your established minimums with visual compliance indicators.
• Generate detailed PDF reports of risk assessments and personal minimums profiles. Reports include complete evaluation details, scoring methodology, and pilot qualification information suitable for training records, employer requirements, or personal documentation.
• Maintain comprehensive pilot information including ratings, certifications, and current flight details. The app adapts available features based on your qualifications and experience level.

Target Users:

• Student and private pilots learning risk management
• Commercial pilots requiring documented risk assessments
• Flight instructors teaching aeronautical decision-making
• Flight schools implementing standardized safety practices
