Avg Ops Coordinator Salary

Small operators carry big operational weight

FBOs, charter companies, and flight schools juggle scheduling, maintenance deadlines, crew duty limits, and FAA compliance with tools built for airlines or built in the 1990s. The result: missed inspections, scheduling conflicts, and compliance gaps that ground aircraft and kill revenue.

  • Maintenance surprises

    AD compliance deadlines and 100-hour inspections slip through the cracks when tracked manually

  • Scheduling conflicts

    Double-booked aircraft, overlapping crew assignments, weather disruptions handled reactively

  • 📋

    Compliance risk

    Crew duty time limits, pilot currency requirements, and regulatory filings managed in spreadsheets

  • 💰

    Staff costs

    A dedicated ops coordinator costs $60-80K/year. Most small operators can't justify the hire

What Upwind Does

An operations agent, not another dashboard

01

Autonomous Scheduling

AI manages your flight schedule, detects conflicts before they happen, and reschedules around weather, maintenance, and crew availability automatically.

02

Maintenance Intelligence

Tracks flight hours, cycles, and calendar time against every inspection interval and airworthiness directive. Alerts mechanics and schedules downtime proactively.

03

Compliance Monitoring

Monitors crew duty limits, pilot currency, and regulatory requirements in real time. Flags issues before they become violations, not after.

04

Crew Communication

Sends schedule updates, maintenance notices, and assignment changes to your crew automatically. No more phone trees or group texts.

05

Weather Integration

Monitors TAFs, METARs, and NOTAMs for your routes and bases. Adjusts schedules when weather windows shift and notifies affected crews.

06

Daily Ops Brief

Every morning, Upwind delivers a complete operations summary: today's flights, maintenance due, crew status, compliance items, and weather outlook.
