About the session
Enhancing Flight Operations Solutions
The software that supports flight operations (or ‘Flight Ops’) can mean a myriad things. It can be specific to a pilot’s electronic techlog or flight bag (ETL or EFB) functionality, or it can focus on the wider processes surrounding a flight. For instance, it can be more directed towards crew training, ground handling, line maintenance or fuel efficiency and management and so on. This is before one considers environmental pressures, operational reliability or efforts or airlines to decrease turnaround times (TATs).
The extent that an airline will therefore prioritise each element will depend on its operational style, and there is no ‘one stop shop’ or fix-all solution that is the single answer. Establishing connectivity ‘hubs’ or data platforms are becoming more common and will be one of the approaches explored throughout the Flight Ops IT conference sessions.
