Transpordiamet Compliance for Estonian Flight Schools
EASA Part-FCL & Part-ORA Ready
Aviatize is built for the documentation discipline Transpordiamet expects from Estonian ATOs. The Estonian Aviation Academy (Eesti Lennuakadeemia, EAVA) at Reola near Tartu runs the state's commercial pilot training programmes alongside ATC and aircraft engineering tracks. Pakker Avio claims the distinction of being the first licensed private flight school in the Baltics (operating since 1990).
In short
Is Aviatize Transpordiamet compliant?
Transpordiamet — the Estonian Transport Administration, formed on 1 January 2021 by merging the Civil Aviation Administration (Lennuamet), Maritime Administration, and Road Administration — is Estonia's EASA Part-FCL competent authority. Estonia joined the EU on 1 May 2004 and the Eurozone on 1 January 2011 (the 17th eurozone country and first Baltic state).
Frameworks supported

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 Transpordiamet compliance all come together. No more chasing missing documents or scrambling before an audit.

Frequently asked questions
Who is Estonia's civil aviation regulator?
Estonia's regulator is Transpordiamet — the Estonian Transport Administration, formed on 1 January 2021 by merging the Civil Aviation Administration (Lennuamet), Maritime Administration, and Road Administration. Transpordiamet is the EASA Part-FCL competent authority for Estonia.
Does Estonia have a flag-carrier cadet programme?
