Flybe Ltd is the latest airline operator to partner with TrustFlight through implementing our digital suite of tools. Having launched this past April, Flybe operates routes throughout the UK and EU. Their planned fleet consists of 32 De Havilland Dash 8-400 planes, which along with quieter and similar speed performance as a jet, produces 35% less CO2 per seat.

A significant, and well needed, effort in pushing the industry towards a digital revolution is a paperless data bank of an asset’s unbroken service history and maintenance life. Not only does such a project open the door for a far more reliable system of record keeping, but also provides an opportunity for levels of operational efficiency, profitability, and safety not yet seen across the sector. DARS, the Digital Aviation Records System, is a project that has the potential to do just that.

Our own co-founder and CEO, Karl Steeves, spoke recently with Sumit Singh from Simple Flying. They discussed TrustFlight’s innovations in safety and efficiency in the maintenance and operation of aircraft, as well as what the future holds for paperless, error-free pilot logs. Read further for a summary of what they discussed.

A unique collaboration between TrustFlight, Boeing, RaceRocks and The University of British Columbia (UBC) has plans to transform the aviation industry, creating a new digital aircraft records platform aimed at significantly improving efficiency and potentially saving the sector up to $3.5 billion a year.

At long last, a most welcome opportunity to meet a broader set of likeminded aviation professionals face-to-face. Well who would have thought a 200 mile journey would feel almost unusual, certainly symbolic. After 18 months of near enforced hibernation it is time to hit the skies and roads again. As a result we will be attending MRO Europe on 19-21 October 2021 at RAI Amsterdam.

New Canadian ultra low-cost carrier, Flair Airlines, has partnered with TrustFlight to provide comprehensive SMS and operational management support across its expanding fleet of aircraft, helping to deliver an efficient, cost-effective and robust culture of safety and compliance.

We are pleased to announce that our class-leading Electronic Tech Log system has been endorsed by EASA. After an extensive evaluation across airworthiness, operations and cybersecurity requirements, the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has granted a letter of ‘No Technical Objection’ (NTO) for the TrustFlight Electronic Tech Log.

If you’ve ever glanced into the cockpit before or after a flight, there’s a good chance you’ll have seen one of the flight crew filling out a thick binder of paper forms. These forms make up what’s often referred to as the Aircraft Technical Log, Journey Log or, just the Aircraft Logbook. The digitization of this paper-based process provides many benefits to operators including cost reduction, delay reduction, and the opportunity for...

An aircraft technical log is a regulated document used to record flight hours and maintenance details such as defects on an aircraft. Most operators today still use a paper form to achieve this – usually with carbon copies that are distributed to various people such as ground handling agents and maintenance operations

TrustFlight today announced the re-launch of the Jersey Aircraft Registry. The Jersey Aircraft Registry is developing a unique and improved offering, driven by technology, providing a new way for aircraft owners to register their aircraft quickly and efficiently.

We're pleased to announce the integration between our Tech Log and RocketRoute. By integrating with third party services, our Tech Log can provide added value by reducing data entry and streamlining processes for operators both in the air and on the ground.

It is often said that an aircraft without records is worthless, and whilst this may be an exaggeration, there is truth behind the saying. An aircraft with missing flight and maintenance records can have as much as 30% of its value eroded away. Aircraft records are not binary though, and the quality of records play an equally important role in helping maintain aircraft value.

As we accelerate the adoption of digital records within the aviation industry, we are looking for more people to help achieve our vision for a fully digital world.

Since the launch of the iPad in 2010, Electronic Flight Bags (EFBs) have been gaining popularity in the cockpit transforming how data and information is managed and shown to the crew. It is now common for charts, manuals and performance data to all be digital and available to crew using hardware devices such as the iPad. However, there are still a few processes in the cockpit that are reliant on paper, and the aircraft technical log is one of them.
