More than a platform, Flight Schedule Pro is a voice for the flight training industry.
OVERLAND PARK, Kan., April 30, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Flight Schedule Pro, the leading platform powering flight school operations nationwide, today announced an expanded partnership with the National Flight Training Alliance (NFTA)—a move that deepens its role in reimagining how pilots are trained, measured, and supported.
As part of the partnership, Flight Schedule Pro CEO Nick Wegner has been appointed to the Board of Directors of the NFTA. In this role, Wegner will serve as both advisor and advocate—bringing the insights of over 1,400 flight schools and more than 60,000 students into direct dialogue with the FAA and policymakers overseeing the historic modernization of Part 141 training regulations.
"Flight schools are the lifeblood of aviation—and it's important that their voices aren't just heard, but amplified," said Wegner. "Our mission has always been to champion their success through technology. Now, we're taking our 2 decades of experience and data to Washington—ensuring policy reflects the real-world challenges and priorities of those shaping the next generation of pilots."
The FAA's Part 141 Modernization Initiative is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to transform aviation training—shifting from a rigid, hours-based system to a more adaptive, data-driven model. NFTA, selected by the FAA to lead industry coordination, plays a central role in shaping the future of Part 141 regulations. Beyond this effort, NFTA is also committed to advocating for broader industry reforms, with pilot wellness and mental health at the forefront of their mission. These initiatives are central to building a sustainable, future-ready flight training ecosystem.
Flight Schedule Pro, already trusted by the majority of professional flight schools in the U.S., is aligning its operational expertise with NFTA's policy leadership. Together, they will advocate for smart reform grounded in student outcomes, instructional efficiency, and expanded access to aviation careers.
"NFTA is proud to welcome leaders like Nick Wegner who understand that supporting flight schools means supporting the future of aviation," said Lee Collins, CEO of NFTA. "By aligning advocacy with data and experience, we're building a training ecosystem that's smarter, more sustainable, and more inclusive—for instructors, operators, and students alike."
As a premium sponsor and strategic partner, Flight Schedule Pro is investing not only in innovation—but in institutional change. The company is expanding its platform capabilities to help schools navigate the evolving regulatory landscape, while continuing to provide industry-leading tools for student progress tracking, simulator integration, and real-time compliance.
With unmatched operational reach and now an active policy voice, Flight Schedule Pro and NFTA are stepping forward together—ensuring the future of aviation training is shaped by the people who live it every day.
