The verdict
Flightsafety holds 11 US patents across 11 technology areas, rank #24,318 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Flightsafety International Inc. has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2020 and 2025, placing Flightsafety International Inc. at rank #24,318 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 11 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 24.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in G03B (APPARATUS OR ARRANGEMENTS FOR TAKING PHOTOGRAPHS OR FOR PROJECTING OR VIEWING THEM; APPARATUS OR ARRANGEMENTS EMPLOYING ANALOGOUS TECHNIQUES USING WAVES OTHER THAN OPTICAL WAVES; ACCESSORIES THEREFOR). As a US Corporation, Flightsafety International Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Flightsafety sits between Finsecur (11 patents, rank #24,314) and FOVE, Inc. (11 patents, rank #24,322) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 46.1/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Historical data spans 2020 through 2025, with 11 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Flightsafety International Inc.'s 24.4 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while concentration in 11 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Flightsafety International Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Flightsafety's 11 grants land it in the top 22% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
