Why offline sign off matters on pilots EFB
The Flight Performance Manager at Mavi Gök Airlines (MGA) contacted us, as they were currently paper based and seeking a quick EFB onboarding process for their flight operations…
MGA Airlines is a Turkish airline based in Antalya, providing aircraft maintenance, passenger service, charters and wet lease. With a fleet of Boeing 737 and 777 and Cessna 208B.
MGA had encountered unexpected issues and delays with a previous EFB provider, making it crucial to go live quickly within their flight operations.
With that in mind, they conducted a quick trial of skybook before deciding to commit to a 5-year contract.
We successfully integrated with their existing flight planning provider and charting application, saving valuable time in the process.
Their crew and scheduling provider were also able to integrate seamlessly using our own API capabilities.
To help with their CAA EFB approval process, training sessions were conducted for the team members who would be using skybook, and they each received a training certificate as proof.
We also provided MGA with our EASA approval documentation to help speed up the process. They also have full access to our computer based training, online resources and support service.
Overall it took just 3 months for MGA to start using the live environment for EFB and dispatch, including other features such as the post-flight reporting and analytics.
This is an impressive onboarding time, especially considering that similar processes can take some airlines well over a year to coordinate.
The team at MGA are eager to fully leverage our Document Library on the EFB app. We are currently enhancing its structure and features to ensure they can utilize it to its full potential.
We look forward to building our relationship with MGA team and we are keen to collaborate with them to understand their future needs, such as a crew and maintenance interface.
