Beloit, WI, USA – Feb. 22, 2021 – Aviation software leader Comply365 is pleased to announce its two newest airline customers, Azores Airlines and SATA Air Açores, who both will soon leverage the power of streamlined compliance management and improve collaboration and efficiency with Comply365 solutions.

The airlines, both part of the SATA Group based in the Portuguese Autonomous Region of The Azores, recently acquired ProAuthor, Comply365’s end-to-end operational content and compliance management system that enables faster, more routine manual revisions, and enables airlines to always be audit ready.

“We were looking for a manual authoring and delivery solution that would offer a better way to manage our compliance with EASA regulations and IOSA standards as well as provide our flight crews with a great mobile experience,” said Mário Chaves, COO of the SATA Group. “After thoroughly researching the market, it was evident that the value Comply365 would bring to our operations, as well as their innovative team, was the right solution.”

Azores Airlines and SATA Air Açores operate a fleet of Airbus A320 and A321 and De Havilland Dash 8-Q200 and Q400 aircraft, respectively, providing passenger and cargo service within the Azores and international flights to destinations in Europe, North America, and Africa.

While airlines typically spend months preparing for audits using legacy systems, ProAuthor will significantly reduce that time by tracing the manual content with corresponding regulatory standards. By providing the ability to tag standards and automatically run reports, the airlines will always be prepared for audits. ProAuthor will replace rudimentary word processing solutions at the pair of airlines, where technical publications members will now save time during the authoring process by reusing shared content across manuals in both airlines.

“We’re happy to welcome two Azorean airlines to our global Comply365 community, and we look forward to providing a great user experience for their crews,” Comply365 CEO Tom Samuel said. “We’ve proven the value of a unified system for our customers with multiple AOCs, so we’re excited for Azores Airlines and SATA Air Açores to realize the efficiency gains and increased collaboration they will see when they’re both operating within the Comply365 system.”

Comply365’s solutions will provide a consistent end-user experience that reduces training and support, as well as increasing accuracy and safety by enabling frontline operators to navigate fewer systems for manuals and operational data. Pilots and flight attendants will receive more personalized and relevant content through effectivity tagging that enables filtering and searching based on aircraft, parts or other tags specific to the airlines’ operations.

Viva Aerobus, Mexico’s ultra low-cost carrier with the lowest CO2 emissions per passenger takes its culture of ‘The Future is Green’ into the digital age using machine learning performance models to recommend customized climb speeds to its pilots for each flight to significantly reduce fuel burn and
emissions.

Leveraging data to reduce emissions

Climb-out, which represents the first 20 to 30 minutes of flight at high thrust rates, offers the most potential for fuel savings. However, it is also the most complex phase, with many parameters changing at the same time as the aircraft ascends. The use of historical flight data and Artificial Intelligence allows to address this complexity and predict fuel burn in different scenarios to recommend optimal climb speeds to pilots for each flight, taking into account individual aircraft performance and accurate 4D weather forecasts. Thanks to OptiClimb, which Viva Aerobus has implemented from January 1st further to extensive validation tests, the airline will be able to save in average 70kg of fuel for each climb, which could represent a fleetwide carbon footprint reduction of at least 14,000 tons of CO2 per year.

Taking the lead in flight efficiency

By extending such digital initiatives to its flight operations, Viva Aerobus is taking fuel efficiency to the next level, not just offsetting its carbon emissions but pro-actively reducing them at the source while also further reducing its costs for the benefit of its customers.

Viva Aerobus Head of Operations Management, Humberto Flores, said: “Viva Aerobus is fully committed to a Green Future, through innovation and the latest technology available. We were pleasantly surprised to experience how Safety Line was able to deploy such advanced predictive
by technology in such a simple, straightforward and user-friendly manner, allowing pilots to save fuel and reduce emissions at the beginning of every flight.”

Safety Line Founder & CEO, Pierre Jouniaux added “We were lucky to be able to launch a full scale trial of almost 4000 flights with Viva Aerobus before the pandemic eventually reached Mexico. Thanks to great project management and pilot commitment, application rates were as high as 83%, maximizing the savings achievable with OptiClimb”.

Pilots receive real-time weather and flight optimization information with SITA’s eWAS Pilot to fly safer, more cost and time-efficient routes.

AeroLogic has become the first European cargo airline to implement the SITA eWAS Pilot weather monitoring solution, minimizing the associated cost of weather-related flight disruption. Weather phenomena are a significant cause of flight delays, which cost airlines billions of dollars annually, according to research from data group Cirium. Adverse weather, such as icing conditions, can also cause up to US$500k in damage to a modern aircraft engine.

eWAS Pilot, used by 50,000 pilots worldwide, provides accurate 4D weather forecasts and real-time updates from various sources to warn about weather hazards such as thunderstorms, lightning, clear air turbulence, strong winds, icing, and even volcanic ash.

Armed with a complete and most-up-to-date picture of weather events, AeroLogic pilots can make informed, proactive decisions to re-route flights to avoid significant weather where needed. Furthermore, they can develop more economical, intelligent, and flexible flight route plans, ensuring strong on-time performance while reducing fuel burn and carbon emissions. In addition, AeroLogic makes use of Safety Line’s OptiDirect software, which is integrated with eWAS Pilot. This optional feature proposes shortcuts and shows possible fuel and time savings based on historical flight data.

Joe Moser, managing director of AeroLogic, said: “Safe, efficient and sustainable operations are a key part of AeroLogic’s long-term strategy, and COVID-19 has accelerated our digital transformation plans to deliver cost and time savings. We selected SITA to help us achieve this because of their industry knowledge and proven solutions. eWAS Pilot helps our crews stay a step ahead, avoiding the avoidable and delivering more efficient flight paths and better fuel usage.”

AeroLogic, a joint venture between DHL and Lufthansa Cargo, operates around 12,000 international flights a year. The eWAS technology was rolled out in just four weeks to the airline’s 17-strong ultramodern and low-emission B777F fleet.

As part of the airline’s digital transformation, AeroLogic has also signed up to SITA AIRCOM® Cockpit Services – a suite of integrated IT solutions – to centralize and manage air-to-ground communications for greater efficiency and collaboration.

Sébastien Fabre, SITA FOR AIRCRAFT, said: “The financial impact of COVID-19 on airlines has necessitated more intelligent operations to optimize costs and ensure long-term sustainability. Our eWAS and AIRCOM® products are already helping passenger airlines become more efficient through the digital exchange of data and messages. These solutions can also be successfully applied to cargo airlines. We are delighted to work with AeroLogic as they pursue their digital vision.”

In the last weeks of 2020, the Israeli airline Israir went live with AMOS and took over their day-to-day maintenance transactions from their legacy system.

The implementation had originally started in October 2019, but in the middle of the workshops, during the definition phase, the project had to be put on hold due to the Corona Crisis.

The project teams from Swiss-AS and Israir decided to resume the #implementation in October 2020 with a limited scope in order to meet the goal of using AMOS operationally by the end of 2020.

The new schedule was quite challenging but was also an opportunity to discover innovative and creative ways to manage projects off-site in a timely manner.

Israir Airlines is an Israeli Tour Operator and Airline headquartered in Tel Aviv and operates scheduled, charter and cargo flights to various destinations in Europe, Africa, Asia and the Middle East. The carrier operates a fleet of 7 aircraft (A320 and ATR 72).

Congratulations to Kalitta Air, who successfully went live with AMOS on January 25th. The project was a complicated one as it rolled out the system across the varied business units of the company. The go-live was a ‘big bang’ approach to ensure all of the benefits were realized straight away across all of the divisions.

The Kalitta business supported by AMOS includes the global operation of 37 B747, B767 and B777 aircraft, a heavy maintenance base in Oscoda with over 400,000 sq ft of hangar space, 3 engine shops totalling 170,00 sq ft. and a 10 meter engine test cell, 7 component shops, and a 24,000 sq ft tire and brake shop. This massive scope incorporates over 2,000 users and a 24/7 operation.

To complete this complex project during these turbulent times is a great achievement and a credit to the dedicated Kalitta & Swiss-AS project team.

“There is great excitement from the entire Kalitta staff during this first week of operation as it represents a new dawn of efficiency for the company” stated Daragh Cunningham, Senior Director AMOS Americas.
