We all have experienced the amazing capability of comprehensive planning apps for flying. These simplify life and improve safety (when used correctly) and where would you be without those in the modern airspace?

The YouCanBook.Me app seems perfect for busy CFIs scheduling their day. Set it up and advertise your availability (custom url) and it allows your clients to access your calendar from any internet portal. Additionally, if you schedule a time on your calendar for an appointment (dentist?) the app syncs to the scheduler and prevents a flight appointment during that time. LMK what you think? Better apps for CFIs?

Thanks to SAFE member Zach (San Diego) for sharing his calendar and ideas! Fly safely (and often)!
