Do you fully utilize the latest technologies to optimize your flight profiles and maximize fuel efficiency? With FlyGuide FPO, you can minimize total flight cost by saving on all flight phases and empower the pilots to make more informed decisions. Take a step to discover the way this innovative system works and how it can make your business more cost-efficient.
FlyGuide FPO is a comprehensive Flight Path Optimization System consisting of an EFB application, a cloud-based optimization engine, and an Operations Control Interface. EFB app provides an optimum trajectory for all flight phases. Its goal is to minimize the cost of the entire flight rather than each individual flight phase. Cloud-based optimization engine uses flight data (real-time and post-flight) to refine aircraft performance models and suggest saving opportunities in a continuous feedback loop. Cost Index, delay cost, contrail impact cost, or flight constraints can be dynamically controlled by the pilots or OCC. Thanks to tight data integration, FPO provides success rate analytics and feedback for all airline’s stakeholders.
Key features
- Precision and transparency: FlyGuide FPO utilizes actual flight data to deliver highly accurate results. It uses QAR/FDR based tail-specific performance models driven by latest AI technology. Despite that, it’s not a black box. Performance engineers can review FPO performance models in a similar fashion like in performance engineering tools, but with FPO they also get access to model’s accuracy. Something what is very rarely shared in legacy models.
- Informed decision making: FlyGuide FPO EFB app provides pilots with easy, intuitive interface. Flight path is presented together with cost mesh in a simple way, allowing quick and accurate decisions in-flight. Pilots can analyze alternative scenarios as fast as the blink of an eye.
- Airline controls its operations: keeping in mind that the airline knows best what is best for it, FlyGuide FPO optimization respects flight path restrictions managed by OCC & Flight Ops. Dedicated dashboard helps optimize areas of operations which are sub-optimum.
- Seamless operation: the optimization and delivery process is fully automatic – minimal pilot’s input is required. Average number of clicks to get optimum path: three. Average sync time: 10 seconds. Coverage > 99%. Satisfied pilots > 90%*.
Easily use with clear insights for better situation awareness
FlyGuide FPO enhances pilot decision-making by providing transparent, high-resolution weather data, boosting situational awareness. Utilizing precise weather conditions, it optimizes flight paths and presents pilots with detailed layers such as wind, temperature, and turbulence. These layers are customizable to meet airline requirements. The forecast is dynamically adjusted to the expected time at each waypoint, ensuring pilots have the most accurate and timely information for safe and efficient flight operations.
Transparent pilot decision-making: understand the 'why’ behind every recommendation
FlyGuide FPO is designed to ensure the information is presented as transparent and comprehensive as possible. The crucial part are the charts, which shows optimum altitudes and optimum speeds. The magenta line refers to the Operational Flight Plan parameters and the cyan dashed line represents the optimums recommended by the FlyGuide FPO. The app promotes clear colour guidance with a simple rule – “follow the green”, where the green colour represents the optimum flight path, resulting in the lowest total cost of flight.
Proven emission savings
The launch of the FlyGuide FPO has achieved remarkable savings, ranging from 38 to 68 kilograms per flight for a narrow-body aircraft. This corresponds to 2 400 000 – 4 000 000 USD savings and 23 400 – 42 300 tonnes less CO2 emission for an operator with 100 aircraft per year.
Depending on your current level of optimization Flyguide FPO can save between 1 to 8% of direct operating cost.
This comes from 2 groups:
-
Improved technology: accurate, always up to date optimum trajectory. It provides savings in range of 0.7-4% comparing to legacy solutions.
-
Continuous feedback loop: success rate analytics and feedback for all airline’s stakeholders provides another 0.5 – 4% savings.
Customizable and straightforward integration
FlyGuide FPO is designed to integrate easily with any operational procedures. It’s also fully customizable and can be tailored to fit specific airline requirements and seamlessly adapt to different operational needs and aircraft types. The straightforward integration process reduces the complexity of adopting new technologies and minimizes the likelihood of human error. Also, the training is quick and straightforward, with StorkJet providing the airline with all the necessary materials and support for the pilots.
