"Standard Aircraft Types" is a feature that assists FBOs with creating and managing their FBO aircraft types. Utilizing this tool will help correct mislabeled aircraft types and will reduce the chance of an incorrect aircraft type being selected within a reservation.
The Aircraft Types already stored within your FBOs account can be standardized to ensure future reservations display the Standard Aircraft Type preferred by your FBO.
Note: Aircraft types are added to the account in the below three ways:
1. Entry of Aircraft Type by a FBO User when creating a reservation.
2. FBO users addition of Aircraft Type, associated with a Tail Number, within an Operator Account.
3.FlightBridge using Aircraft Operators and Pilots Aircraft Types are passed over to the FBOs Operator account via their submitted reservation requests.
