The best MyFBO alternative for modern flight schools
MyFBO is shutting down in August 2026. If you need a replacement you can stand up yourself, AerScheduler is built for that: schedule, bill, maintain, and run the school on web and native mobile.
Why schools look past MyFBO clones
Replacing a long-running FBO platform is stressful. The wrong alternative locks you into demos, per-seat pricing, or a web-only experience your instructors won't open on the ramp. A strong MyFBO alternative should get you operational quickly and keep the whole team in one system.
What AerScheduler includes
- Lane-board scheduling and student self-booking
- Fleet, rates, grounding, and maintenance squawks
- Invoices and Stripe payments
- Native iOS and Android apps plus web
- $20/mo per aircraft · sims and rooms free · 14-day trial

How to switch without chaos
- Download your MyFBO .bak backup while the account is still live.
- Create an AerScheduler org and recreate fleet + people.
- Run both systems in parallel until dispatch feels solid.
- Cut over on a quieter week and keep the backup archived.
