Methodology: how we source and verify

How this directory is built.

Scope

Flight-training organisations worldwide, weighted to Australia and the Asia-Pacific. Each record notes the regulator, courses, fleet, partnerships and founding.

Sourcing

Every school links its sources. Closed schools are kept for reference and clearly marked, with a factual summary of what happened.

Fairness on closed schools

For a closed school we describe the closure factually and attribute leadership and ownership accurately across time, so events are placed with the management actually in control at the time.
