Migrating from MyFBO to AerScheduler

MyFBO is shutting down in August 2026. Before you choose a next home, secure your data. Then set up AerScheduler yourself. No demo queue, no sales call.

Do this first: back up your MyFBO data

Whatever platform you move to, download MyFBO’s .bak database backup while your account is still active. That file is your operational history. Keep it somewhere you control.

A simple migration playbook

Four steps. Self-serve the whole way. AerScheduler is built so you can stand up a working schedule in one sitting.

  1. 1

    Back up your MyFBO data

    While your account is still live, download MyFBO’s database backup (.bak). Keep a copy you control. That file is your history no matter where you land.

  2. 2

    Create your AerScheduler account

    Self-serve signup takes minutes. Add your fleet, invite your team, and put something on the schedule. 14-day trial, no credit card.

  3. 3

    Run both systems in parallel

    Keep MyFBO online while your team practices on AerScheduler. Cut over when dispatch and billing feel right, on your timeline.

  4. 4

    Cut over when you’re ready

    Pick a quieter week, flip the team to AerScheduler, and keep your MyFBO backup archived for records.

Migration questions

Is MyFBO really shutting down?
Yes. August 2026. Download your .bak backup while your account is still active so your history isn't stranded on a server that goes dark.
Do I need a demo to start AerScheduler?
No. Create an account, pick your persona (school, club, FBO, or solo instructor), and follow the in-app setup. You can be booking in minutes.
Can you import my MyFBO .bak automatically?
Not yet as a one-click importer. Back up the file regardless, then recreate fleet and people in AerScheduler (or send exports to support).
How much does AerScheduler cost?
$20 per aircraft per month after a 14-day free trial. Simulators and rooms are free. Unlimited users.
