Swiss FOCA-Compliant Flight School Software
EASA Part-FCL & Part-ATO Ready
Switzerland demands more from its flight schools than standard EASA compliance. Your operations span three languages, your students train in some of Europe's most challenging mountain terrain, and FOCA expects documentation that reflects Swiss standards — not just EU minimums. Aviatize handles Part-FCL licensing, Part-ATO and Part-DTO compliance, trilingual record keeping, and CHF/EUR billing for schools that refuse to compromise on precision.
Running a flight school under FOCAregulations means juggling training records, instructor qualifications, aircraft maintenance schedules, and student progress — all while making sure every document is audit-ready. Most schools still rely on spreadsheets and paper files. There's a better way.
Aviatize is the operating system for flight schools — a single platform where scheduling, training management, billing, maintenance tracking, and FOCA compliance all come together. No more chasing missing documents or scrambling before an audit.
FOCA Regulations
The Regulations That Shape Your Operations
Federal Office of Civil Aviation defines the rules for flight training in Switzerland. Here are the key frameworks that Aviatize helps you navigate — not just comply with, but actually use to run a tighter, more efficient operation.
Flight Crew Licensing
Manage PPL, LAPL, CPL, IR, and ATPL training programmes with full progress tracking, skill test documentation, and licence records per EASA Part-FCL as adopted in Switzerland.
Approved Training Organisations
Structured training management for FOCA-approved ATOs including course approvals, training records, instructor qualifications, and audit-ready documentation per EASA Part-ORA.
Declared Training Organisations
Streamlined compliance for declared training organisations offering PPL and LAPL courses with proper record keeping and declaration management under Swiss-adopted EASA rules.
Continuing Airworthiness
Aircraft maintenance tracking including flight hours, ADs, service bulletins, and maintenance programme compliance for Swiss-registered training aircraft.
Aviatize for FOCA
How Aviatize Keeps You Compliant
Compliance isn't a checkbox — it's how your organization operates every day. Aviatize embeds FOCA requirements into your daily workflow so staying compliant is the default, not an afterthought.
Run training operations across German-, French-, and Italian-speaking cantons with multilingual interfaces, documentation, and student communications — no more maintaining parallel record systems for different language regions
Track mountain flying endorsements, Alpine strip qualifications, and high-altitude training milestones that are essential competencies in Swiss aviation but absent from generic EASA software built for flat-terrain countries
Maintain FOCA inspection readiness with compliance dashboards that exceed baseline EASA requirements — reflecting the higher documentation standard Swiss authorities expect compared to other European states
Handle CHF and EUR billing simultaneously for students who may pay in either currency, with Swiss VAT compliance and instalment plan management built in
Manage scheduling in Switzerland's compact, congested airspace where training slots at airports like Grenchen or Ecuvillens must be coordinated precisely to avoid conflicts with commercial traffic and military activity
Track Part-FCL competency-based training phases, skill test scheduling, and examiner availability with automated progression logic that prevents students from advancing without meeting every prerequisite
