Can Aviatize manage students pursuing both DGAC and FAA certifications?

Yes. Many Mexican flight schools — especially near the US border — train students who want both DGAC and FAA pilot certificates. Aviatize tracks training requirements for both authorities simultaneously, flagging which hours and endorsements count toward each certification and what additional requirements remain.

Does Aviatize support Mexican electronic invoicing (CFDI) requirements?

Aviatize generates invoice data compatible with Mexico's CFDI electronic invoicing requirements (facturación electrónica). MXN billing, RFC tracking, and tax-compliant invoice exports are built in for schools that need to meet SAT compliance standards.

How does Aviatize help Mexican flight schools feed pilots to domestic airlines?

Aviatize supports airline pipeline tracking with cohort management, progress dashboards, and automated reporting. Schools training cadets for Volaris, VivaAerobus, Aeromexico, or regional carriers can share standardized progress reports with airline sponsors and track students from enrollment through type rating readiness.

What regulations govern flight training in Mexico?

Mexican flight training is regulated by the DGAC (Dirección General de Aeronáutica Civil) under the LAC (Ley de Aviación Civil) framework. LAC-141 covers approved flight schools, LAC-61 handles pilot licensing, and CO AV-27 sets medical standards. The framework closely mirrors FAA structure, making dual-certification training relatively straightforward for schools that understand both systems.

Flight School Software for Mexico's Aviation Boom

DGAC LAC Compliance

Mexico's low-cost carrier revolution is creating unprecedented pilot demand. Flight schools along the US border train students who may pursue both DGAC and FAA certifications, while schools in central Mexico serve the domestic airline pipeline. Aviatize supports both scenarios with dual-framework compliance and Spanish-first operations.
