SaSiMS

I have seen the perfect software for you - SaSiMS I will ask my friend who works with them to send you some info. It was developed for the helicopter market originally and has all the functionality you need.

I agree I also use the SaSIMs programe and can recommend it for the use you ask, however the problems i have encountered with it is that it does seem to crash a lot and if there are several people on it printing reports it takes for ever but this may well be caused by a slow server.

Talking

We use a superb system for our piston fleet called Aerotrac.
Aerotrac was designed for the smaller aircraft operator and used by CSE Oxford and Police Aviation services and, I think, about twenty other operators worldwide.

Give them a try.

I can recommend IAS system, which we use. Does fixed wings and helos and is modular based (so you can add stores, accounts,ground equipment etc etc it will grow with the company)
It can manage several users at once and is a very stable platform

AMS by Aerosys

I hear AMS by Aerosys is very good and understand it is used by FTA at Parafield as well as several other Australian shops. Great program and very easy to use.

I've always thought you rotary wing people were different! What are "rins" and "clycles"?
