Aircraft Health Monitoring

Access to more

Costs are constantly rising, logistics are more and more challenging, and the competition in the aviation market gets tighter every year. To keep operations profitable, operators need to proactively optimize operations based on real-time, situational intelligence. 

FLYHT’s Automated Flight Information Reporting System (AFIRS™) offers a reliable, future-proof, voice data connectivity with 5G and SATCOM, along with backwards compatibility with 3G and 4G/LTE.

AFIRS is also a platform to access value-added real-time business intelligence through our AFIRS technology suite of innovative data and reporting services.

Unlock access to real-time, insightful actionable intelligence which can save you money, streamline your operations, enhance operational safety, and ultimately improve customer satisfaction.

Staying one step ahead

Modern aircraft have enormous amounts of data flowing within them. Accessing these large volumes of data and extract useful data to in a timely manner is crucial to maintaining a healthy aircraft and reducing delays.

With our AFIRS™ solution, we can provide you with the capabilities to capture the right data and allow you to monitor it in real-time. The data is analyzed to provide actionable intelligence to deal with maintenances preemptively before they can slow down your operations — real-time, actionable data allows you to start organizing maintenance and repairs before the aircraft even lands. Save money by reducing your delay times and improve customer satisfaction by being on-time.

Eliminate in-service failures via a system that enables detection and removal of components just prior to failure.

There is a wealth of data generated on an aircraft while in service, and the effective use of that data will provide the ability to perform proactive maintenance. Effective data capture must:

• Capture the right data — Isolate data relevant to the maintenance issue. 
• Use the data effectively — Analyze that data efficiently and with accurately, to detect impending maintenance issues.

Our AHMS solution supports…

Real Time Monitoring: The operational status of the entire fleet of aircraft is known at all times, with instant updates when conditions change. Visual displays provide location and health status for each aircraft.

Diagnostics: The troubleshooting and analysis data allows Maintenance Control to interpret current messages, explore current and historical data, and then send action messages and launch troubleshooting guidance to resolve technical issues as soon as possible.

Prescription: Formulate and provide diagnostics and maintenance recommendations that greatly enhances operations.

Prognostics: Impending issues which have not yet affected the serviceability of the aircraft are identified, and maintenance recommendations are quickly provided to preempt functional failures.Learn More about AFIRS

Providing insight for Aircraft Health

Automated Engine Trend Reporting

Downtimes, repairs, and maintenance of your aircraft impact your bottom line — especially if they are unscheduled, and impact your customers’ travel experience.

You need access to real-time reporting on critical aircraft systems to monitor the health of your aircraft. Engine trend data can detect signs of deterioration as well as maintenance issues. By tracking engine data real-time, you can monitor the health and stability of your fleet and proactively address issues before they cause serious damage. The earlier you diagnose problems the less potential there is for catastrophic and/or costly failures — being able to predict maintenance requirements ahead of time helps you optimize maintenance logistics and reduce the impact of downtimes.

FLYHT’s Automated Engine Trend data is transmitted automatically, in real-time from every flight during takeoff and cruise providing you with predictive maintenance and repair intelligence. Consistent, accurate, and timely engine data provided directly from the plane in real-time can help your operations and maintenance organizations react promptly and proactively to degrading performance and potential failures.

Real-time Engine & Airframe Exceedance Reporting

Maintenance costs are skyrocketing. The logistics and costs involved with maintenance and repair from managing aircraft downtimes to sourcing parts and managing supply chains have a huge impact to your operations. With real-time exceedance alerting, you are notified immediately when aircraft events occur helping you prioritize and predict what systems and parts might need further investigation or repair. FLYHT’s application provides you real-time intelligence to enable proactive maintenance of your aircraft, engines and life-limited parts.

Remote Real-time Diagnostics

The logistics of scheduling maintenance and repair for an aircraft is not just challenging, it can be a nightmare. If an aircraft has an issue at a remote or smaller airport, getting the right parts and even the required maintenance equipment and personnel onsite might be time-consuming and costly. With access to real-time, in-flight aircraft systems diagnostics, you can troubleshoot and diagnose issues while the plane is still on-route—jump starting logistics and supply chain decisions before the aircraft even lands, maximizing organizational performance, minimizing downtime, and reducing potential impact on aircraft scheduling from crew requirements to passenger impact.
