We chose skybook as the first step in digitising our operation with a goal to leverage data for decision making and measuring our performance across a wide spectrum. The flexibility of skybook to modify the crew interface to suit our needs is important and has the added benefit of allowing us to move to a paperless flight deck. On the Dispatch side of the operation we have improved workflow and capabilities of our dispatch team and are just ‘scratching the surface’ as to how it can help us improve efficiency.

Having seen everything that skybook had to offer, the initial plan of providing crew briefing for only the CRA turned into an integrated package spanning the entire fleet; AirTanker are now using skybook not only to automate Crew Briefing but also Flight Dispatch, ETOPS Charting and Airfield Monitoring.

We chose skybook as a digital briefing solution not only due to the capabilities of the system, but as a result of the willingness of Bytron to continue to develop the product in line with industry best practice. The highly configurable solution provides a useful tool for our pilots, as well as for our Flight Operations and Network Control teams. We look forward to working with the Bytron team on further developments going forward.
