The space between flight lessons

Make every lesson build on the last.

FlyRecap connects your post-flight reflections, voice or written CFI feedback, lesson history, progress, milestones, and next-flight focus — so every lesson can start with the context from the one before it.

Core CFI access is free. Student tools are built for Private, Instrument, Commercial, CFI, and CFII training in the U.S.

The problem

Your training shouldn't reset between lessons.

You land with ten things in your head. Your instructor's correction on the flare. The trick that finally made slow flight click. The thing to work on next time.

Then six days of life happen. You strap back in and reach for the details — and most of them are gone.

Fly Forget Relearn

With FlyRecap

Fly Recap Remember Build

When every flight hour costs real money, remembering the lesson matters.

How it works

Five steps, and none of them happen in the airplane.

01

Fly

Finish your lesson. FlyRecap stays on the ground.

02

Recap

Talk it through or type it out: what went well, what was hard, what you learned.

03

Connect

Your CFI adds a voice note or written feedback and clarifies what needs work.

04

Prepare

Before the next lesson, reopen the context and know exactly what to focus on.

05

Build

Over time, see the patterns, the progress, the milestones, and how far you've come.

For students

Leave every lesson knowing what happened, what improved, and what comes next.

Voice or typed

Talk through what went well, what felt difficult, and what you learned — or type it instead. Voice answers are transcribed so the lesson stays readable and searchable.

Listen back

Replay your own recap and your instructor's voice feedback later, with the transcript kept beside the lesson it came from.

Everything in one place

Recaps, transcripts, instructor feedback, skill progress, milestones, and your next-flight focus stay connected instead of scattering across texts, notes, and memory.

Built for the whole training journey

Use the same student experience through Private, Instrument, Commercial, CFI, and CFII training instead of starting a new record every time your training stage changes.

For CFIs

Great instruction shouldn't disappear when the lesson ends.

Capture the useful part while the lesson is still fresh.

Review the student's own reflection, then record a quick voice note or type feedback while the lesson is still fresh. FlyRecap keeps the transcript, feedback, and lesson context together for the next conversation.

See which students have recaps ready for review, keep feedback tied to the correct lesson, and preserve continuity when another instructor needs context.

Core CFI access is free.

Continuity

Different instructor. Same training story.

Students change instructors. Schools reassign schedules. Sometimes you just fly with whoever is available that week.

Without a shared record, much of that context can live in memory, scattered notes, or messages. When the instructor changes, the next person may have to reconstruct the story.

FlyRecap can create a handoff view with recent lessons, prior shared feedback, skill context, milestones, and the areas that have been getting attention.

The next instructor shouldn't have to start from zero.

Context for the conversation, not a proficiency assessment. Instruction and training decisions stay with the CFI.

Progress & milestones

See the pilot you're becoming.

In flight training it's easy to notice everything you still need to learn. FlyRecap helps you see everything you've already learned, too.

Skill status comes from the training information entered or confirmed in FlyRecap. The app visualizes progress; it does not replace a CFI's judgment or establish FAA proficiency.

FlyRecap can surface milestones supported by your training data, while you can add milestones the app cannot determine on its own. Progress indicators are motivational and organizational — not official FAA determinations.

Sometimes you don't realize how far you've come until you look back.

The value

Flight time is expensive. Forgetting the lesson is expensive, too.

Every lesson contains feedback, corrections, small breakthroughs, and the one technique that finally made a maneuver make sense. Those details are worth more than the hour they came from.

FlyRecap keeps them so you can walk into the next lesson prepared instead of rebuilding the last one from memory.

The goal is simple: make more of the flight time you are already paying for.

When your last lesson's corrections, breakthroughs, and next focus are easy to retrieve, your next paid hour can begin with context instead of reconstruction.

Use your next flight to move forward — not reconstruct the last one.

Built by a student pilot who got tired of forgetting what happened between lessons.

FlyRecap

Your next lesson should start where the last one ended.

Recap the lesson. Keep feedback connected. See your progress. Carry the right context into the next flight.

Core CFI access is free. CFI and CFII students using FlyRecap as students use the student subscription.
