## What is Contact Ground?

Contact Ground is the all-in-one operations app for flying clubs and shared aircraft organizations.

Manage aircraft scheduling, operations workflow, maintenance and squawk tracking, member communication, and invoicing from one central system—designed specifically for the way flying clubs actually operate.

From reservation to debrief, Contact Ground helps your club stay organized and efficient.

Features include:
	•	Aircraft scheduling and shared calendar visibility
	•	Operations support including flight hours tracking by aircraft
	•	Pre/post flight checklists per aircraft
	•	Maintenance visibility and due date prediction for usage-based maintenance (oil change, 100 hour inspections)
	•	Member coordination and operational messaging
	•	CFI availability requests allow instructors to share their availability for member requests 
	•	Member endorsements (club sign-offs, high performance, etc.)
	•	Club (airport badge, insurance, etc) and member-definable (BFR, medical, etc) currency reminders
	•	Billing support and post-flight workflow organization
	•	Administrative tools for smoother club management
	•	Document storage for clubs (references, read and agree, required member docs) and member document storage
	•	Reporting on maintenance, usage, squawks, oil consumption, and more

Contact Ground helps reduce manual work, improve visibility, and keep everyone aligned across the full flight lifecycle.

Whether you’re a club instructor, operations officer, accountant, or pilot, Contact Ground gives you the tools to help your organization run with less friction and better operational awareness.
