Northwind Aviation — Pilot Training App
Prospective pilots compare licensed programs, filter the catalog by what matters, and keep up with notices from a civil aviation school in one app.

The story behind it.
Learning to fly starts with a catalog and a comparison. Northwind Aviation needed that catalog to be legible to someone who has never flown: which licensed programs exist, what each one covers, and how to ask the school about it. The app and its admin panel were designed together to make that clear.
Programs are listed with the details a prospective pilot needs before committing, and an advanced search narrows the list instead of forcing a long scroll. A services section explains what the school provides beyond the course itself, which answers the questions that otherwise arrive by email.
Push notifications and a user profile keep applicants and students current, while the admin panel gives the school control over program listings and announcements. Tablet and phone layouts were designed in the same pass, since the app is as likely to be opened at a kitchen table as at the airfield.
