Emirates, GE Aviation expand digital partnership:
20 November 2019: Dubai GE Aviation and Emirates have collaborated to adopt GE's electronic Flight Operations Quality Assurance (eFOQA) and Flight Pulse among the Emirates pilot community. The proposed project plans to begin with Emirates fleet of B777 and A380 aircraft and Emirates pilots. Emirates and GE Aviation want to implement FlightPulse and eFOQA into Emirates operations in 2020.
"FlightPulse provides pilots with data and analytics to help them fly more efficiently and help reduce carbon emissions," said Andrew Coleman, chief commercial officer for GE Aviation. "By expanding upon the digital solutions already in use by Emirates, will enable them to get more benefit from a comprehensive use of flight analytics and services."
"We look forward to this partnership as Emirates' vast operational experience and expertise combined with GE Aviation's strong digital & analytics capability can produce amazing results for the industry. We are keen on having pilots review their performance and become more active in achieving best safety standards while optimising operations," said Capt. Hassan Alhammadi, Divisional Senior Vice President of Flight Operations for Emirates. "Providing our passengers and crew with the safest and most comfortable flights is always our priority."
FlightPulse, a mobile app, uses aircraft data and smart analytics to allow pilots to access their own flying metrics and trends. The app can be used to optimise efficiency, decrease operational risk, and improve pilot awareness or any other positive outcome possible through advanced flight data analytics.
"We've continually invested in the use of data and technology to inform our operations and are keen to further enhance our safety and efficiency using the latest technologies. This tool from GE Aviation will equip us with a very visual application that will allow our pilots to tap into their own flight data on a per flight basis," said Capt. Brian Tyrrell, Senior Vice President, Fleet for Emirates.
