Register to view this On-Demand Webinar (recorded 27th March 2025) and join SkyPath as they demo the latest version of their innovative and unique real-time turbulence analysis, alerting, and reporting Apps, as used by airlines worldwide such as United, American Airlines, Emirates, Singapore Airlines, Japan Airlines, and more; with 100,000 pilots using the app, 9B turbulence reports, and more than 16 million Turbulence Alerts annually. As you will see, SkyPath is a software only solution and does not require any aircraft integration. It is available as stand-alone Apps for pilots, dispatch, and management, or as an integrated layer in all leading EFB Apps, providing real-time en-route, graphically visualized turbulence reports, and vocal and text alerts warning of Turbulence ahead, alongside PIREPs. During the Webinar, SkyPath experts will take you on demos of the solution, firstly from a pilot’s perspective for a typical flight using the flight deck App, followed by the new CabinConnect app, showing how pilots alert cabin crew regarding upcoming turbulence, and lastly the renewed Web App as used by dispatch to monitor each flight. The demos will also showcase the newest features in SkyPath (version X). Firstly, a novel new industry-leading turbulence data source based on ADS-B Vertical Rate. Next, Nowcasting, a predictive AI / ML powered model utilizing real-time turbulence observations and meteorological parameters to predict short-term turbulence, for up to 12 hours, with a detection rate of more than 90%, and much more. With increasing frequency of Turbulence from global warming, you will see how SkyPath offers vital insights to both Pilots and Dispatchers, providing real-time Turbulence data and Turbulence predictions, enabling immediate action.
The Webinar begins with a look at the challenges of increasing frequency of Turbulence before giving an overview of the solution. You will see how SkyPath utilizes crowdsourcing technology to share Turbulence information in the aviation community. You will get an explanation on each of the unique and groundbreaking new Turbulence data sources that SkyPath has developed to improve pilots’ situational awareness in regard to Turbulence. The solution normalizes the Turbulence data, taking the airplane’s type into consideration (weight, wing length, etc.), that is servedto the pilot in the most accessible way. As you will see, via case studies, SkyPath analyzed and found that 79% of Turbulence related injurie events occurred in known Turbulence locations, and drives a 40-50% decrease in the number of injuries among SkyPath users.
The Webinar is divided into three key sections:
- Overview of SkyPath; Industry Turbulence Problems; Latest Developments
First, the SkyPath team will outline the challenge of increasing frequency of Turbulence, which is forecast to further increase in the next few years and become more severe. You will learn about the technology SkyPath is based on, using patented algorithms, AI and Machine Learning (ML) models to give pilots the best Situational Awareness in regard to Turbulence and PIREPs. You will get a look at the solution ecosystem, as stand-alone Apps for pilots, dispatch, and management, or as an integrated layer in the leading EFB Apps. You will then see the latest developments and new features in Version X, with new and novel Turbulence data sources. You will also see how pilots can report official PIREPs through the App. Lastly, the SkyPath team will provide a sneak peak of new capabilities they are working on.
- SkyPath Demo 1: Pilot App for Typical Flight and new Cabin Crew app
Next, you will see a SkyPath demo from a pilot’s perspective following a typical flight. You will see how Pilot’s use the App to upload a flight plan, get an overview of the flight ahead – through a ‘ride quality’ feature and a vertical view of the entire flight path. You will see how a pilot receives both vocal and text notification of Turbulence ahead (even when the app is in the background), and you will see the different weather layers available through SkyPath and how to see the relevant weather information at different altitudes. The SkyPath team will demonstrate how to submit an official PIREP through the App. You will then see the CabinConnect app, the new app that allows for direct communications between pilot and cabin. Pilots can decide to inform cabin crew on upcoming turbulence through the app.
- SkyPath Demo 2: Web App for Dispatch
Finally you will see a demo of the SkyPath Web App which provides tools for dispatch teams displaying the same powerful turbulence data. The demo will show how a dispatcher, using the SkyPath Web App, manages their own desk showing the flights they are responsible for. You will see the value of the information SkyPath provides in route planning and flight monitoring and how a dispatcher receives notifications for upcoming Turbulence in their flights’ routes.
About the Aircraft IT Webinar Series:
Every 2 weeks the Aircraft IT website hosts a different live Webinar, each Webinar hosted by a different IT Vendor. These sessions represent the perfect opportunity to learn about a software solution in a more informal manner and to quickly gain an in-depth knowledge of all the major systems on the market, all from the comfort of your own office or home with no sales pressure.
The IT vendor provides a live software demonstration/masterclass of their solution and explains how it can benefit airlines, MROs, Operators, OEMs, Leasing Companies. Once logged on, online delegates can ask questions via the interactive sections of the Webinar or simply sit back and watch and listen to the demonstration. There are two sessions during the day, each differently times to accommodate all time zones.
Each Webinar session is recorded, and an On-Demand version is then posted back to the Aircraft IT website a few days after the live session to allow you to view the content again with your colleagues. The library of On-Demand Webinar recordings provides an invaluable reference source of Flight Operations software demonstrations from the World’s leading Flight Operations IT Vendors.
