RampReady has launched a free iPhone application allowing general aviation pilots to request fuel, ramp parking, hangar space, and line services from FBOs prior to arrival.
Through the app, pilots can review fuel prices, ramp fees, hangar rates, and minimum fuel volume requirements to waive facility fees, according to company officials. The platform also includes photos of each participating facility.
Pilots select their destination FBO, choose needed services, and submit the request. Once confirmed by the FBO, pilots receive a mobile notification and gain access to direct in-app messaging with front desk staff and line crew to relay updated arrival times or last-minute requests.
“I built it to bring visibility to the ramp on what pilots actually need and want, so everyone is informed when they show up,” said Josiah Saxe, founder of RampReady.
For FBOs, incoming requests populate a dashboard showing aircraft details, arrival times, fuel orders, and parking needs, alongside automated flight tracking powered by Flightradar24. FBOs not currently registered on the platform receive requests via email with a one-tap confirmation option.
