    Our story

    Built by a pilot.
    For the doctors who keep them flying.

    Regular AMEs told us they needed patients, not data. They're doctors, not marketers. So we built the tool they actually needed.

    35+ years commercial aviation experience
    "AMEs are physicians first. They don't have time to become marketers — and they shouldn't have to."

    PlaneLists provides complete automated postcard campaigns — from FAA pilot data to professionally printed postcards mailed monthly. Our platform helps AMEs acquire 2–3 new patients per month while focusing on what they do best: examining pilots. Every targeting decision, every mailing, every month — handled.

    FAA-designated AMEs in the U.S.
    450K
    FAA medical applications processed annually
