Built for Part 61 and Part 141 operators
Matryn checks every reservation against the regulation and your own minima before the aircraft moves, then bills the flight from the numbers it actually flew. One record, nothing re-keyed.

The arithmetic
To a surprise grounding, a no-show nobody backfilled, a slot the front desk could not clear in time.

This is your arithmetic, not our claim. No school runs on Matryn yet, so there are no customer results to quote. The rest of this page shows where those hours go, and what catches them.
[ 01 ]
A tail goes unairworthy at 16:40. The booking made at 16:45 is still on the board, and nobody finds out until a student is standing at the ramp with a headset in their hand.
That is a flight you already sold, flown by nobody.
[ 02 ]
Hobbs gets written twice, into two systems, by two people, one of whom is in a hurry. The reconciliation is a spreadsheet, and the spreadsheet is somebody's entire Tuesday.
Every hour you fail to reconcile is an hour you flew for free.
[ 03 ]
Endorsements, stage checks, 8710s, training records. Auditable in principle. Findable in practice only by the one person who knows how they were filed.
The morning of the checkride is a bad time to find the gap.
Scheduling
Aircraft, instructors, rooms and simulators on one schedule, per base and in that base’s own timezone. Every booking is checked against the same rule pack that gates the release, so a reservation that cannot fly never gets made.
Training records
Lessons graded against the ACS, stage checks gated on what actually came before, and a certification plan that recomputes the moment anything is signed.
Fleet and maintenance
Inspections, ADs and service bulletins tracked against live Hobbs and tach. A grounding squawk grounds the tail, and the board finds out before the student does.
Open squawks
Billing
One Hobbs reading, one rate, one line. Wallets, packages, refunds and accounting exports, with every money movement written to the same audit log as everything else.
Also included
Safety reporting
Anyone can file a hazard or occurrence report. Severity decides what happens next, and a report never silently grounds an aircraft on its own.
Student records
Roster, progress, currency, medical and endorsement expiry, with the gaps surfaced before they block a flight.
Instructors
Currency, CFI expiry, duty windows and per-instructor rates, checked at the release like everything else.
Documents
Versioned documents with e-sign and a retention policy per category, so the signed copy is the one you can find.
Messages
Booking, cancellation, squawk and approval notices by email and SMS, routed by role rather than by whoever is in the group chat.
Reports
Utilisation, instructor load, student progression, revenue and the risk matrix, exportable in open formats.
Currency, endorsements, airworthiness, inspection margins, weather minima and account holds are one rule pack, evaluated inside the transaction that creates the release. Move a policy below and the flights re-evaluate, because the arithmetic changed.
Hours reserved before the inspection so the tail is never flown to zero.
Your minimum, set per school. Dual flights are unaffected.
Seven rules, run against five reservations, recomputed on every change. Two of them are your settings rather than the regulation. The 100-hour margin and the solo ceiling belong to your chief instructor, and the release honours whatever they decide.

Matryn will suggest the schedule, flag the student who is drifting and rank the week's bottlenecks. It will not sign anything. Every recommendation carries the inputs it saw, the rule it cites, and the human who accepted it.
Every suggestion is a record you can open. Which reservations, which currencies, which maintenance windows. All of it attached, all of it inspectable afterwards.

Recommendations land in a review inbox. Nothing is applied until someone with the authority to apply it says so, and that approval is part of the record.

Matryn proposes inside the same rule pack that gates dispatch. It cannot suggest a flight that dispatch would block, and it cannot suggest its way past a grounded tail.

Students, aircraft, instructors, rates, course definitions and completed hours. Historical training records import as read-only history so nothing you already signed gets rewritten.
Set the school's own weather minima, inspection margins, solo policy, role definitions and grade scales. Matryn ships defaults; it does not ship opinions your chief instructor has to argue with.
Run one week beside your existing system and compare the two at the end of it: every release, every Hobbs entry, every invoice line. The disagreements are where the old system was quietly wrong.
Front desk, instructors and students move on the same day. Everything before the cutover stays queryable, and the audit log starts on day one rather than whenever someone remembers to turn it on.
| Capability | Scheduler + logbook + spreadsheet | Matryn |
|---|---|---|
| The record | One per system. Reconciled by hand, monthly, by whoever notices. | One operational record. Every module reads and writes the same rows. |
| Dispatch control | A checklist on the wall and a dispatcher who remembers. | A rule pack evaluated in the transaction. The block is enforced. |
| Progression | Hours totalled at stage-check time, from a logbook someone transcribed. | Recomputed on every signed lesson, against your syllabus and the ACS. |
| Billing | Hobbs entered twice. Mismatches found at month end, if at all. | The flight that was logged is the flight that is billed. One reading, one line. |
| Audit | Change history where the vendor happened to add it. | Immutable log across every module: actor, rule, before, after. |
| Multi-base | A second login, or a second contract. | One school, scoped access per base, each in its own timezone. |
Matryn supports a school's compliance program with rules, evidence, approvals, immutable records and audit trails. It does not determine or guarantee regulatory compliance. That responsibility stays with the certificate holder and the chief instructor, where the regulation puts it.
Both. Course definitions carry their own prerequisites, minimums, applicability and grade scales, so a Part 141 approved syllabus and a Part 61 program can run side by side in the same school without one bending to fit the other. Training record output supports both regimes.
They import as history and stay queryable, but they import read-only. Nothing that was already signed gets rewritten by a migration script. New activity starts under Matryn's rules and its audit log from day one, and the old record remains exactly as it was.
Offline lesson grading in the cockpit is on the roadmap and not shipped yet. We would rather tell you now than let you find out at 2,500 feet over a valley with no bars. Everything else on this page is built.
The school does. Every tenant's data is scoped to that tenant at the schema level, exports are available in open formats for records, billing and training history, and leaving is a supported operation with an export behind it.
No. Matryn proposes, and someone with the authority to apply it applies it. Proposals are bounded by the same rule pack that gates dispatch, so Matryn cannot suggest a flight that dispatch would refuse to release, and every accepted recommendation records who accepted it.
QuickBooks Online for accounting export, Stripe for payments, email and SMS for notifications, and an API for everything else. Provider integrations are configured per school, and nothing calls out to a third party unless you have turned it on.
Send us a normal Thursday, the tails and the syllabus and the instructors, and we will show you that day in Matryn, blocks and all.
