Creating Your Account

Overview

Centerline helps flying clubs and aircraft partnerships coordinate reservations, track maintenance, manage member access, and keep everyone informed — all in one place. When you create a Centerline account, you're not just signing up for yourself: you're establishing the digital home for your entire club. As the account creator, you'll automatically become the Account Owner with full administrative privileges, which means you'll be responsible for adding aircraft, inviting members, and configuring how your organization uses the platform. It's worth taking a few minutes to get the setup right.

Steps to Create Your Account

1. Visit the Sign Up page — Click Get Started on the Centerline homepage.
2. Enter your organization name — This is the name of your flying club or partnership. It must be unique across Centerline and will be visible to all of your members, so choose something your club recognizes.
3. Provide your personal details — Enter your first name, last name, email address, and phone number (optional but recommended for SMS notifications).
4. Create a password — Choose a secure password with at least 6 characters.
5. Accept the Terms of Service — Review and accept the terms to continue.
6. Complete the CAPTCHA — Verify you're human by completing the security check.
7. Click Create Account — Submit your registration.

Email Verification

After registering, you'll receive a verification email. Click the link in the email to confirm your account and activate your access. If you don't see the email within a few minutes, check your spam or junk folder.

What's Next?

Once verified, you'll land on your dashboard where a Getting Started wizard will guide you through the essential setup steps:

1. Add your aircraft in the Setup section — enter tail numbers, aircraft types, and any relevant details.
2. Invite your club members — send email invitations and assign roles.
3. Configure scheduling rules — set how far in advance members can book, maximum reservation durations, and other preferences.

You can dismiss the Getting Started card once you feel your organization is configured. It won't reappear.

Tips

• Use an email address you check regularly — you'll receive reservation reminders, squawk updates, and other important notifications here.
• Your organization name will appear in every notification email sent to your members, so choose something recognizable and professional.
• If you have existing reservation or member data, use the Import Data tab in Setup to bring it in without starting from scratch.
