Your central workspace for day-to-day airport operations
A purpose-built platform designed to support structured aerodrome operational management and compliance workflows for Australian regional airports, council aerodromes, and aviation organisations.
Built for the Realities of Regional Aviation
Sterling Aerodrome Manager brings together the day-to-day tasks of aerodrome operational management into a single, structured platform. Designed specifically for Australian regional aviation — where connectivity is variable, compliance obligations are real, and operational records matter.

Everything Your Aerodrome Operations Require
Daily Actions, Restrictions & Shift Handover
Daily actions with assigned owners and due dates, a restriction register, and shift handover and receipt records to keep your team informed.
Inspections with Photos & GPS
Conduct inspections with photo capture and GPS location. Unfinished drafts are retained locally on the device, with clear save and sync status indicators so you always know what has been uploaded.
Manuals, Reports & Inspector Declarations
Searchable manuals and files, completed inspection reports, PDF exports, and authenticated inspector declarations with a manager review workflow.
Asset Register & Compliance Evidence
Asset register, compliance evidence tracking, and an audit history log to support your recordkeeping obligations.
Phone & Tablet Navigation
Designed for phone and tablet use in the field, with an included device setup guide to get your team started quickly.
Defect Management & Tracking
Structured defect management from identification through to resolution, with clear status, attribution, and action history.
Wildlife Hazard Reporting
Record and manage wildlife hazard observations with structured reporting fields and operational follow-up tracking.
Central Operational Overview
A central overview showing inspection status, open defects, compliance items, and upcoming obligations at a glance.
Professional Operational Reporting
Generate professional operational reports for management review and stakeholder reporting, with GPS information, photographic evidence, and associated audit history where supported.
Multi-User Access
Role-based access for aerodrome managers, operations staff, and authorised stakeholders — with clear attribution on all records.

Structured operational records support clearer traceability and audit history. All records are securely stored and accessible to authorised users.

Set up your aerodrome.

Complete your first inspection.
Open Inspections, choose a checklist, record each item's result, add notes or photos where needed, then complete and sign the inspection.
Keep your records together.
Use Defects to track issues, Wildlife to record activity, and Documents to store operational files. Assets and Compliance modules are available; some capabilities are subject to ongoing development.

Working without a connection?
Inspection drafts and photos can be retained on the device and uploaded after reconnecting. Select Sync once back online and confirm the inspection appears in the register before treating it as submitted. Not all modules support offline use.

Technology Innovation & Development
Sterling Aerodrome Manager continues to evolve. AI-assisted document setup is available as a limited pilot — it produces source-based checklist and report drafts that require human review before use. It is not a general assistant and does not provide automatic compliance approval. Smart NOTAM drafting and UTC conversion, including possible integration with Airservices Australia, are planned features and are not currently operational. NAIPS and AV-Data buttons are external login shortcuts only — they do not retrieve or submit data automatically, and no endorsement by those providers is implied.
Planned features are not yet available in the current release. All regulatory responsibilities remain with the operator.
