API for FBOs - Ground Service Readiness

The endpoints below support ground service readiness for FBOs by surfacing aircraft features, equipment requirements, and maintenance considerations needed to prepare fueling, handling, and support resources efficiently and safely.

Select each endpoint tab to view details along with sample inputs and responses.

  • Endpoint: getMaintenance

    FBOs use getMaintenance to understand an aircraft’s maintenance status, operating basis, and certifications, helping inform service expectations, international handling readiness, and coordination with operators prior to arrival.

    Practical Example

    Check maintenance details for a specific aircraft to confirm operating authority under FAR Part 91, required certifications such as RVSM and RNP, and completion of recent major inspections and service bulletins. Use this information to anticipate international or high-altitude operations, align ground services with the aircraft’s operating profile, and coordinate appropriately with the operator or crew ahead of arrival.

  • Endpoint: getFeatures

    FBOs use getFeatures to understand aircraft equipment and onboard capabilities that influence service expectations, crew needs, and customer experience, supporting more informed coordination for arriving or prospect aircraft.

    Practical Example

    View installed features for a specific aircraft to confirm onboard capabilities such as Wi-Fi, SATCOM, APU, RVSM, and extended-range fuel. Use this feature profile to anticipate crew and passenger expectations, prepare appropriate amenities and support services, and align service delivery for high-end or long-range aircraft operators.

  • Endpoint: getAdditionalEquipment

    FBOs use getAdditionalEquipment to understand non-standard equipment and modifications that may affect ground handling, fueling procedures, or service coordination for arriving aircraft.

    Practical Example

    Review additional equipment details for a specific aircraft to identify modifications such as extended-range fuel tanks, fast refueling capability, gross weight increase mods, and specialized onboard systems. Use this information to anticipate fueling requirements, confirm handling considerations, and ensure ground services are prepared for aircraft with non-standard configurations.
