Turbulence can put stress on passengers, crew and aircraft. In worst cases, it can also lead to injuries as well as aircraft damage.
What if pilots had more advance warning and more precise data about upcoming turbulence thanks to a collaborative digital solution? What if they could prepare themselves and their passengers and even avoid the zone altogether?

Identifying, analysing, then fixing a failure is the standard troubleshooting scenario.

However, how can you ensure that an intermittent failure is adequately fixed, to prevent undesired consequences?

Have you ever wondered how much recycled material is used in the building of Airbus aircraft and how much of the aircraft can be recycled?
Reusing and recycling have been part of this industry for years. However, with today’s spotlight firmly focussed on sustainability, aviation must deliver noticeable results, show engagement and sometimes even completely rethink materials and ways of working.
What options should operators consider today for an aircraft at the end of its flying life, and what is around the corner for becoming even more sustainable?

What if you could get a heads-up on the maintenance status of an aircraft before it even landed? This is where health monitoring plays a key role.

Thanks to global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) including GPS, aircraft navigation has significantly evolved over the past 25 years. Even if *ILS (Instrument Landing System) remains the primary means for precision approaches, new satellite navigation technologies are now in place to perform approaches.
