Abstract :
More powerful results thanks to bi-directional connection • Real-time decisions about weather or aircraft maintenance • Being informed real-time, dispatchers and pilots can make safer decisions, e.g. in case of an approaching storm; • Operating at optimum speeds, altitudes and trajectories (Jeppesen´s Wind Updates) and avoiding, that inaccurate, limited or outdated weather data prevent that; • Conversion of unscheduled to scheduled maintenance by more complete awareness through in-flight health monitoring. • Communication costs and available bandwidth.
