CAA & ERSA-Approved Manuals & Training Documentation
Flight Training School Setup & Compliance Support
AACS provides specialist support to flight training schools, aviation academies, and pilot training organisations requiring compliant operational manuals and structured training documentation aligned with UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) and European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), requirements.
We assist new and existing organisations in developing, implementing, and maintaining documentation necessary for Approved Training Organisation (ATO) or Declared Training Organisation (DTO) operations.
Supporting Flight Training Organisations
Under UK and EASA aviation regulations, pilot training must be delivered through organisations approved or declared with the Civil Aviation Authority, supported by documented procedures, training programmes, and operational controls.
AACS works alongside training providers to ensure manuals and systems demonstrate compliance with regulatory standards while remaining practical for day-to-day operations.
