Arrivals, stacking, fuel and transient fees in one place?

Today they pass by radio and memory. PlaneMAX™ puts them on one ramp board, on the map of your actual airport.

How it works

Run the ramp day to day.

01

One ramp board for the desk and the crew.

A ramp board and timeline replace radio chaos: arrivals, departures and service requests in one view.

The front desk and the line work from the same 3D map of your actual airport, hangars and ramp included.

02

Fuel, GPU and service requests, on line techs’ phones.

Each request goes to one person and moves from new to scheduled to done. Jet-A on a fuel record, GPU request approved.

Fuel tracking keeps your fuel records and your tenants’ lease fuel commitments.

03

Rate cards price every stay and fee by aircraft type.

Set your rates once. Overnight parking and hangar nights are priced by aircraft type, so a light jet and a piston twin each get their own published rate.

04

Stack hangars safely.

AI hangar stacking suggests tightly packed nightly parking plans, with tow paths checked by true-to-scale 3D collision detection using actual manufacturer dimensions.

AI tools suggest parking scenarios; they are not auto-pilot commands. AI suggests, your line lead decides.

PlaneMAX™ Pro

Transient traffic and events, on the same board.

Transient & stays

Overnight stays and arrivals with flight data, priced from your rate card.

When a transient needs space, a fit check shows which of your hangars take the aircraft, and you assign the one you choose.

FAQ

Questions about PlaneMAX™

Does PlaneMAX™ decide where aircraft go?

No. The planning software suggests layouts, parking and stacking scenarios. It is not an autopilot or a command. Your team makes every final decision on aircraft movement and placement.

Where do arrival times come from?

On PlaneMAX™ Pro, from flight-plan-based arrival and departure schedules through FlightAware.

Do I have to replace my current software?

No. Start with the part you need. AV8 MAX™ runs alongside what you have and connects with Stripe, Authorize.net and FlightAware.

Can I add the ramp to a TenantMAX™ plan?

Yes. AI Stacking and Collision Check and the Fuel Tracking Module are add-ons for TenantMAX™ Go and 360, and the Ramp Operations Board is an add-on for TenantMAX™ 360. PlaneMAX™ Core and Pro include all three.

How is it priced?

One flat price per location per month. No seat fees. Annual plans include two months free.
