Register to view this On-Demand Webinar (recorded 27th April 2017) for a full overview and as live software demonstration of the innovative live EFB Weather App from SITAONAIR: EFB Weather Awareness Solutions (eWAS). During the Webinar, you will see how eWAS sends real-time, live weather data (turbulence, thunderstorms, icing, etc.) in 4D graphical form, direct to Electronic Flight Bags (EFBs) during all phases of flight; letting pilots track and avoid bad weather in real-time and decide whether to re-route the flight to make it more efficient.
The Webinar starts with SITAONAIR experts talking you through a full overview of the EFB Weather solution and its key features. You will learn how the solution is actively used and tested by airlines across the world and is available on all mobile, tablet or other EFB devices. The solution provides pilots with key, real-time access to live weather both for the flight briefing phase (using WiFi or 3G / 4G), as well as in-flight via a legacy ACARS link or secure broadband cockpit connectivity. As you will see the solution is therefore suitable for all airlines and aircraft operators, operating any fleet.
You will then learn about the significant operational benefits of avoiding dynamic weather conditions… such as reducing fuel burn and emissions, plus any potential damage to the aircraft; as well as enhanced safety and passenger comfort. Finally, you will learn about some of the solutions’ latest developments including: Providing wind and temperature at several flight levels; Tropopause; METAR/TAF for airports selected on the Flight Plan; iPhone companion device; Automatic load of METAR/TAF for departure, destination, alternate and ETOPS airports from the flight plan; plus more…
The Webinar is divided into 3 key areas:
- Full EFB Weather App Overview & Airline Case Studies: You will see a full overview of the app, including connectivity and EFB integration options, as well as latest developments. Also using demos of the solution you will see how a number of airlines are typically using eWAS, including Air France who have started to deploy the solution on iPad to its 4000 pilots and managers in January 2017.
- Demo 1: Pilot’s walkthrough demo of EFB Weather App: You will see how the pilot navigates the App’s graphically optimized view, specifically designed for commercial pilots, of live weather information for the entire flight. It provides a 4D view of the weather, covers both horizontal and vertical planes, as well as the direction of the weather’s movement. You will see how the pilot can plan the most efficient route to avoid dynamic weather conditions.
- Demo 2: Actual Case where diversion could have been avoided: This demo will show you a use case situation and how the solution assists pilots when specific weather is forecast on their route including turbulence and thunderstorms.

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 MRO software demonstrations from the World’s leading MRO IT Vendors.
