What the numbers show

Cancellations are costing N8123V real flying time.

N8123V$8,400 est Scheduled value of cancelled hours

7% of bookings were cancelled or no-shows, 48.0 scheduled hours worth about $8,400 at the usual rate.

Ideas schools in this spot often explore

  • What's different about the bookings of the instructor on most of them: students, times, or workload.
  • How the cancellation and no-show policy is set: notice period, fees, and whether it's applied consistently.
  • Reminders before each booking, and how easy it is for a student to move a booking instead of dropping it.

Ideas, not recommendations. Your situation may differ.

N8123V's next inspection falls in the same two weeks as other aircraft's.

N8123V

N8123V flew 32% of the fleet's hours, and the others are due within days of it, so they could all be down at once.

Ideas schools in this spot often explore

  • Bringing one inspection forward a few days so the aircraft aren't down at the same time.
  • Whether the shop can take two aircraft in the same week, and how long each would take.
  • Which bookings fall in those weeks and could move to other aircraft.

Ideas, not recommendations. Your situation may differ.
