Lufthansa Systems released some new features with Lido mPilot 6.2 in Q4 2022. The release introduced the possibility to display airline specific content called Company Layers, a Cold Weather Correction calculation tool, and included improvements such as ground and terminal charts effectivity and airspace labelling by ‘class’ & ‘name’. Additionally, some minor improvements following customer feedback from Lido mPilot 6.1 featured.
Company Layers offer the possibility for the airline to create content currently available in separate airline documentation and display that in mPilot. Examples are security airspaces, decompression routes or anything else you want your pilots to see.
The Cold Weather Correction calculator is a new feature in mPilot that enables the cold weather correction in the terminal chart, where you need it, and prominently displays on top of the terminal chart. With this feature we eliminate the use of separate tables or apps to do this correction and display the data where required.
Another offering in this upcoming release is the support of STAP protocol to support the latest updates from Aircraft Interface Devices (AIDs) from Collins Aerospace and FOMAX from Airbus.
A further addition is the option to preview future effective charts. Up to two weeks before effective date, pilots will have the opportunity to preview future effective charts.
