Flight School Management Software Provider Oscar Yankee Upgrades EU-Compliant Integrated Safety Management System

Denmark – Oscar Yankee, developer of the OY Wings flight school management platform, has announced a major upgrade to its integrated Safety Management System (SMS) module. This enhancement is designed to support flight training organisations in meeting EU 376/2014 and EU 2020/2024 regulatory requirements through streamlined, fully integrated safety workflow. Oscar Yankee shared its approach to SMS. Learn about it through the article below.

“Safety is the backbone of aviation. Every flight training organisation knows this, yet many still struggle with fragmented tools and manual reporting that make compliance harder than it needs to be. With increasing regulatory demands from EASA and EU 376, flight schools are under more pressure than ever to not only comply, but to demonstrate a proactive safety culture.

That’s where an integrated Safety Management System (SMS)—like the one built into OY Wings Training Management Software—becomes essential.

The Regulatory Landscape: More Than Just a Checkbox

Compliance isn’t optional. Under EU Regulation 376/2014, training organisations are required to collect, store, and report safety data to support incident prevention across the aviation sector. In addition, EU 2020/2024 mandates the use of the European Risk Classification Scheme (ERCS) for consistent risk assessments.

With OY Wings, this isn’t an afterthought. The SMS module was designed from the ground up to capture all the data you need for ECCAIRS 2 reporting—without duplication, manual entry, or wasted time.

The Pitfalls of Manual Safety Tracking

Many flight schools still rely on a mix of paper logs, spreadsheets, and ad hoc systems. This creates risks:

  • Missed deadlines for incident follow-up
  • Incomplete data when filling out mandatory reports
  • Poor traceability in how risks were assessed or mitigated
  • Lost opportunities to identify trends and prevent future issues

Without a structured system, safety reporting can feel like a burden rather than a driver of improvement.

How OY Wings Transforms Safety Management

The OY Wings SMS module is fully integrated into the wider platform, ensuring that safety isn’t siloed—it’s part of your daily operations.

  • Built for compliance – Every field, workflow, and form aligns with EU 376 requirements and ECCAIRS 2 reporting. Safety managers can export compliant reports in minutes.
  • End-to-end traceability – From risk assessment and analysis to follow-ups and mitigations, every stage is automatically recorded, providing full transparency.
  • Automated reminders – OY Wings keeps track of deadlines and notifies staff of pending actions, so nothing slips through the cracks.
  • Actionable insights – Centralised data helps you identify recurring issues and carry out effective root cause analysis, strengthening your safety culture.

Beyond Compliance: A Safety-First Culture

While compliance is the starting point, OY Wings helps your flight school build a culture of accountability. Instructors can log incidents directly into the system, confident that their reports will be tracked. Operations staff can manage risks proactively with clear oversight. Owners and managers gain confidence that safety is not only being reported—but actively managed.

Because OY Wings is a training management platform, not just a standalone SMS, safety data lives alongside scheduling, fleet management, and student records. This creates a complete operational picture, making it easier to connect the dots between incidents, training outcomes, and resource usage.

Final Thoughts

In today’s regulatory environment, a manual or fragmented approach to safety is no longer enough. By adopting OY Wings’ integrated Safety Management System, flight schools can move beyond paperwork and focus on what really matters: preventing incidents, protecting people, and fostering a safety-first culture.

The bottom line: With OY Wings, safety isn’t just compliance—it’s confidence.”
