The first part of the form which appears when the plus icon is clicked, needs to be completed. The fields are as follows:

• Member

To be created as an Instructor, there would already need to be a Member entry for the particular individual. This field allows the Instructor's name to be selected from the Member database

• Description

This can contain whatever information is deemed pertinent. It may be the Instructor's Grade, or it may contain other information - such as "CFI" if appropriate

• Pastel Code

This field contains the accounting code for the Instructor

• Grade

The Instructor grade is recorded here

• Sort Order

Entries are sorted according to the contents of this field. It can be used to list the CFI first, to group full time and part time instructors together, and so forth.

• Display

This entry determines whether or not the Instructor appears on the booking sheet. Instructors appear on the sheet grouped below the aircraft.

Edit an Instructor

On the left of each item in the Instructor list is an edit icon. Click on the edit icon to edit any of the fields described above.

Course Management

Click on "Course Management" to describe courses which are presented from time to time.

Activity

When viewing the list of Instructors, there is an Activity icon after the Edit icon. Since all flights are recorded, a full log is compiled and can be viewed here.

Instructor Availability

The third icon next to each Instructor name provides a further link to the Instructor Availability page. Availability can be edited by the Instructor, or on his behalf by an Administrator.
