PPS Air Support & Leon Software
Total Aviation Command through Leon Software Ops & PPS Flight Planning Integration
Mastering the Mission
Overview
The Power of Synergy
The Seamless Integration of Leon Software and PPS Flight Planning® from AIR SUPPORT.
In the high-stakes world of aviation, data silos are the enemy of efficiency. Leon Software, the industry leader in flight operations management, now integrates flawlessly with PPS Flight Planning by AIR SUPPORT.
This powerful API-based connection transforms your workflow by allowing Leon’s robust scheduling and crew management data to flow directly into PPS’s world-class flight planning engine. The result? A unified ecosystem where dispatchers and pilots work from a single source of truth.
Key Integration Features
Automated Schedule Export
Automated Schedule Export: Transfer flight schedules from Leon to PPS instantly, including aircraft registration, MTOW, and configuration.
Bidirectional Data Sync
Bidirectional Data Synch: Changes made in Leon's OPS module reflect in PPS. Then, Leon retrieves the finalized flight plans back from PPS.
Crew & Payload Integration
Crew & Payload Integration: Automatically include crew complements and estimated payload data in your PPS flight plan calculations.
Real-Time Status Updates
Real-Time Status Updates: Track the progress of flight planning within the Leon interface, from "Draft" to "Filed."
Document Centralization
Document Centralization: PPS-generated Operational Flight Plans (OFPs) and weather briefs are automatically attached to the flight in Leon for easy crew access.

high-speed API architecture
Technical Excellence & Reliability
The integration utilizes a secure, high-speed API architecture designed for 99.9% uptime. Whether you are managing a single light jet or a global fleet of wide-body aircraft, the Leon-PPS link scales to your operational volume without lag.
FAQ
No. The integration is "plug-and-play" via API keys. Our support teams at both Leon and Air Support guide you through the initial mapping of aircraft and fields.
Key data points include flight numbers, DEP/DEST airports, times (STD/STA), aircraft types, registration, crew lists, and payload estimates.
Yes. PPS-generated documents (OFPs) are synced to Leon and can be viewed by crew members on the Leon mobile application or crew portal.
The integration is powered by a secure API that bridges Leon’s flight management system with the PPS Flight Planning® from AIR SUPPORT. Once activated, flight schedules created in Leon are automatically transferred to PPS.
The integration focuses on eliminating duplicate entry by syncing:
- Schedule Data: ADEP, ADES, STD, STA, and Flight Numbers.
- Aircraft Details: Registration and MTOW configurations.
- Payload Information: Number of passengers, gender (for weight/balance), and estimated cargo.
- Crew Lists: Crew complements assigned in Leon are transferred to PPS for the flight briefing.
Yes. While Leon serves as the primary source for scheduling, finalized Operational Flight Plans (OFPs) and weather briefings generated in PPS can be linked back to the flight in Leon. This ensures that the OPS team and crew have access to the latest navigational documents directly within the Leon environment.
Pilots can access their PPS-generated briefings through the Leon Crew Mobile App or the web-based crew portal. By clicking the document link within the flight's checklist or attachments section, the crew can view their complete navigational package, including NOTAMs and weather charts.
The primary benefit is Efficiency. Dispatchers no longer need to manually copy flight details from Leon into PPS, saving significant time per flight leg. Additionally, it increases Safety by ensuring that the flight planning is always based on the most current schedule and payload data from the OPS department.
Most operators already have subscriptions to both Leon and PPS. To activate the link, you may need to enable the "Scheduled Data Import/Export" module within your PPS account and provide an API key to the Leon support team. We recommend contacting both support desks to ensure your specific subscription tier covers API access.
The technical setup is typically "plug-and-play." Once the API connection is established and aircraft registrations are mapped between the two systems, the integration can be live within 24 to 48 hours.
Conclusion: The Future of Integrated Aviation Intelligence
The integration between Leon Software and PPS Flight Planning® from AIR SUPPORT represents more than just a data connection—it is a strategic upgrade for any modern aviation department
In an era where data-driven decision-making is the standard, having your flight management and navigational tools speaking the same language is no longer an advantage; it is a necessity. This partnership ensures that from the moment a flight is booked in Leon to the moment it touches down via a PPS-optimized route, your team is working with the most accurate, real-time information available in the industry.
