For Professionals · The EDAERO Journey

How EDAERO Works
For Professionals.

From building your profile to getting paid on a completed mission — here is exactly how the process works for pilots, cabin professionals, and aircraft engineers on EDAERO.

Who This Is For

One process.
Three professional categories.

EDAERO supports pilots, cabin professionals, and aircraft engineers — and other aviation professionals the Platform supports where applicable — through the same core profile-to-payment journey, with role-specific requirements at each step.

The Professional Journey

From profile
to payment.

Twelve steps, the same core structure for every role on the Platform:

What Matching Depends On

Not every profile
receives the same missions.

Creating a profile does not automatically generate missions, work, or income. Whether — and how often — you're matched to a mission depends on how well your profile fits what a specific mission actually requires.

Your Profile

What EDAERO Looks At

  • Qualifications, licences, and ratings/categories
  • Aircraft experience relevant to the mission
  • Location and travel readiness
  • Current availability
  • Documentation on file
The Mission

What Operators Require

  • Aircraft type and configuration
  • Dates, location, and role needed
  • Operator-specific requirements
  • Other mission-specific criteria
Worker Status & Engagement

Engagement terms
depend on the applicable law.

Whether a specific engagement is structured as independent contracting, another commercial arrangement, or otherwise, depends on the applicable law and the actual terms of that engagement — and can vary by jurisdiction and by mission. EDAERO does not determine employment or worker classification on a Professional's behalf. Applicable engagement terms are set out in the agreements provided during onboarding and at mission acceptance.

Payment & Payout

Secure Mission™
payment flow.

Once a mission is accepted, the required funds are secured through EDAERO's Secure Mission™ payment flow before the mission is executed, and released to the Professional according to the applicable mission terms after close-out. Specific payout timing, and any cancellation or refund terms, are set out in EDAERO's approved payment terms and policies provided during onboarding — not restated or simplified here.

Frequently Asked Questions

How EDAERO works
— common questions.

Does creating a profile guarantee I'll get missions, work, or income?+
No. EDAERO does not guarantee Missions, work, income, or placement. Matching depends on how well your profile fits a specific mission's requirements — see "What Matching Depends On" above.
Am I an employee of EDAERO?+
EDAERO is a technology marketplace connecting Operators with Professionals; it is not the employer of every Professional on the Platform. Worker classification depends on the applicable law and the actual terms of each engagement, set out in the agreements provided during onboarding.
Does EDAERO determine whether I'm regulatorily qualified for a mission?+
No. EDAERO is a technology marketplace, not a regulator. MissionReady status is a compliance-and-eligibility support signal, not a regulatory certification or approval. You remain responsible for confirming you satisfy the requirements applicable to a specific mission.
How is payment handled?+
Once a mission is accepted, funds are secured through EDAERO's Secure Mission™ payment flow and released according to the applicable mission terms after close-out. Full payout timing and any cancellation/refund terms are provided during onboarding.
Can I hold profiles across more than one category — for example, pilot and engineer?+
If you hold qualifications in more than one professional category supported by the Platform, you can be visible for missions in each, subject to the documentation and review requirements for each category.
