Certificates & Licenses
Definitions of pilot licenses and ratings, with the validity intervals that feed proficiency tracking and qualification checks.
What it is
Certificates & Licenses is where you define the pilot licenses and ratings your club tracks — each with its own validity or renewal interval. These definitions describe the credentials a member can hold, such as a glider license or a specific rating, and how long each one stays valid before it needs renewing.
Holding the right, in-date credentials is what proves a member is allowed to fly a given activity. By recording license types and their intervals here, the club can track proficiency over time and let the qualification engine check, automatically, whether a pilot’s credentials are current. The underlying license type definitions live at /certificates/license-types.
How to use it
- Define license types — create each license or rating your club issues at
/certificates/license-types. - Set validity intervals — give each type its renewal period so expiry can be tracked.
- Track proficiency — see which members hold which credentials and when they lapse.
- Feed qualification checks — let qualification rules verify a pilot’s credentials are current before a flight.
- Capture extras — pair with custom fields for any credential detail the base model doesn’t cover.
