Built by an owner-pilot for owner-pilots.
Airworth exists because no one builds the software an owner-pilot actually wants. The category is split between enterprise systems built for fleets the operator doesn’t fly (CAMP, AvPro, TBX) and consumer-facing flight planners built for the cockpit moment (ForeFlight, SkyDemon, Garmin Pilot). The middle — the small-group, owner-managed, fly-it-yourself middle — has been a spreadsheet for decades.
We are building the two pieces of software that middle actually needs.
Why Airworth exists
The owner-pilot keeps four things current: the airworthiness paperwork, the recurring training, the trip plan, and the people on the trip. Three of those are software problems we can do better. One of them is your flying.
Airworth Hangar is the airworthiness portal for the aircraft you maintain. ADs, SBs, components, ARC, costs. EASA and FAA. Airworth Flights is the planner for the trips you actually fly — multi-leg, with co-pilots and non-pilot passengers, in EU and FAA airspace.
We are not trying to be the next ForeFlight. We are not trying to be the next CAMP. We are trying to be the toolkit for the kind of pilot who reads this paragraph and recognises themselves.
Who builds it
Airworth is built by Refugio del Castor SL in Spain. The founder is an owner-pilot. The product team is small. We work with European regulators we can read in the original language (AESA, ENAIRE, AEMET) and US ones we can read in English (FAA, AIM, NTSB).
We do not have an investor demanding a particular GA-startup arc. We are not building toward “the first AI app that flies the plane.” We are building tools we can defend in front of a pilot who will take five minutes to check whether the claims hold up.
How we work in public
A few things we do that you can verify:
- Airworth Flights is open source under AGPLv3 (
github.com/Dvorf/AirWorthFPL). You can read the code, host it yourself, audit our claims. Hangar is closed-source today; we will publish components as we extract them. - Honest feature truth-table. Internally we maintain a feature-status document distinguishing what ships today from what is committed for the next three months from what is on the backlog. Marketing claims trace back to that document. When something is “(coming soon),” it says so.
- EU-first hosting. Cloudflare EU edge for the Site and the marketing waitlist; Resend EU sending region; Plausible EU. See Transparency for the full stack.
- Cookieless analytics. No banner because no consent-bearing cookies. See Cookies.
- GDPR self-service export and delete in the products. Two-stage with 30-day recovery.
- Synthetic registrations on hero screenshots. We don’t use real tail numbers without written consent from the owner.
