Who this is for
A pilot who wants explicit decision triggers before external pressure builds
A reusable personal-minimums and flight-risk kit built around PAVE, IMSAFE, 5P, limits, triggers, and debrief.
The problem
A risk acronym won't stop you when three modest risks stack up and the pressure to go is building.
This product turns that ambiguity into a visible sequence of checks, decisions, records, and instructor conversations.

Workflow
How it works
- Complete the status and evidence pages before trying to solve the problem from memory.
- Work the decision and scenario pages using current official sources and the documents for the actual operation or aircraft.
- Mark uncertain items for a qualified instructor, physician, examiner, or FAA resource as applicable.
- Carry the action or handoff page into the next real conversation and update the plan afterward.
