Flight training, briefed and debriefed

Help people take flight.

Talulah turns every flight lesson into a guided pre-flight briefing for the student and a quick, phone-first evaluation for the instructor. Students arrive prepared, instructors know who’s ready before they reach the airport, and every flight sets up the next one.

Now running with our first flight instructors and their students.

How it works

One lesson, from briefing to debrief

  1. 01

    Before the flight

    A briefing built for this lesson

    Students work through a guided pre-flight briefing at home, on any device. Progress saves as they go.

    • Learning objectives and completion standards
    • A focus from last flight’s ratings
    • Short ground modules, each with a quick check
    • Documents check and the emergency equipment map
    • IMSAFE self-assessment and a readiness summary
  2. 02

    At the airplane

    Evaluate in a couple of minutes

    Instructors evaluate on their phone on the ramp, straight after landing. It keeps working with no signal.

    • Rate each maneuver from 1 to 5
    • Two strengths and two things to work on
    • One safety note
    • Moves the student on to the next lesson
  3. 03

    After the flight

    A debrief that sets up the next lesson

    The student gets the debrief by email and reflects on the flight. Their ratings shape the next briefing.

    • Ratings, strengths and the safety note
    • A 5R reflection the instructor can read
    • Progress across the whole syllabus

See it for yourself. Play both sides of one lesson, as the student and as the instructor, in about five minutes. No account needed.

Why Talulah

The future of flight is diverse, data-driven and deeply human.

The world needs more pilots, and the path to the flight deck is long, expensive and hard to navigate. Talulah is building one place that supports students and instructors through the whole journey, from the first ground lesson onward. It starts with the part that makes every hour in the airplane count: preparation before the flight and honest feedback after it.
