Getting started

Four steps, once.

01/auth/signup

Create an account

Free tier, no credit card. You can run route readiness checks immediately, before configuring anything.

02Profile · once

Fill in your pilot profile

Certificate and ratings, total and recent hours, night and instrument experience, currency. This feeds the pilot-readiness factor on every future assessment.

03Aircraft · once

Add an aircraft

Make, model, equipment and your time in type. Free tier holds one profile; Pro holds as many as you fly.

04Minimums · Pro

Set your personal minimums

Ceiling, visibility, crosswind and runway limits in your own numbers. The engine then checks retrieved conditions against each one and flags violations.

Corridor resolved. Awaiting retrieval

Enter departure, destination, departure window and planned cruise. Aircraft and pilot profile are pulled from your account. Everything downstream is measured against that flight record.

ROUTE
Two ICAO identifiers; the corridor is derived from them
WINDOW
Your planned departure time, not the current clock
CRUISE
Optional, compared against the terrain profile
RE-RUN
Whenever conditions, timing, route or aircraft change

Worked journeys

Four ways people actually use it.

Run an assessment on the route your instructor planned. Read the two or three factors carrying the score, write one sentence about what you would decide and why, and bring both to the pre-brief. The point is the sentence, not the number.

Glossary

Seven words this product uses precisely.

ADVISORY SCORE
A 0–100 figure where higher means more that deserves attention. Not a probability, not a verdict.
COMPOSITE
The deterministic engine that combines factor subscores under published base weights. Current version: v4.
CONFIDENCE
How much of the assessment could actually be evaluated, given what was retrieved and what you configured.
CORRIDOR
The route geometry between your two identifiers, used for terrain sampling and historical record proximity.
DRIVERS
The factors carrying the most weight in this particular result — the two or three worth opening first.
REDISTRIBUTION
Reallocating a missing factor's weight across the factors that do have data.
PERSONAL MINIMUMS
Your own ceiling, visibility, crosswind and runway limits, stored and checked against retrieved conditions.

Troubleshooting

When something looks wrong.

Most of these are the system telling you about a limit rather than failing. The distinction matters, so each answer says which it is.

Still stuck

One address.

Email support@flightready.ai with the route and roughly when you ran the assessment.

!Advisory only. FlightReady supports a decision, it never makes one. Verify critical information through official aviation sources. The pilot in command decides.

Next step

The guide is short
because the product is.

Six inputs, one assessment, one decision that stays yours. Set up your profile and minimums and the rest is a route and a departure time.
