EFB Solutions

With electronic flight bags quickly gaining ground in the airline industry, there is no shortage of software applications to replace traditional, paper-based procedures. But at PACE, we aim a little higher than just the paperless cockpit: Our EFB solutions are designed to introduce additional, first-time functionality to flight crews providing them with real-time operational, tactical and strategic insight that ultimately leads to improved operational efficiency.

Our EFB solutions can be integrated with planning and/or post flight analysis tools to establish a feedback loop across the entire flight operation process. In combination, our tools provide end-to-end support – from flight planning to the monitoring of daily operations – which helps airlines to close the loop in their operational efficiency management and to tap into additional cost and fuel savings potential.

As active members of the EFB community, we collaborate closely with major hardware suppliers and system integrators to ensure our solutions’ compatibility with the widest range of EFB models and application frameworks.

Pacelab CI OPSenables flight crews to determine the most cost-efficient trajectory in any given flight condition

Pacelab CI OPS is a touch input EFB application which makes cost index operations available for regional jets and other aircraft whose FMS does not provide CI functionality. But its unmatched optimization options and ease of use also make it an effective complement even to the most advanced FMS.

Live Viewvisualizes and compares ECON, planned and actual trajectories in real-time

Live View is a functional extension for Pacelab CI OPS which enables crews to continuously monitor the cost efficiency of their flight. Easy to interpret, graphical displays increase pilots’ awareness of their part in operational efficiency management and encourage them to adhere to company policies and procedures.

Trajectory Designersupports graphical-interactive what-if analyses and comparisons

The Trajectory Designer is a functional extension for Pacelab CI OPS which allows flight crews to evaluate alternative trajectories in terms of fuel burn, on-block time and overall cost. The Trajectory Designer provides comprehensive decision-making support and empowers pilots to adopt an active role as production managers.

EFB Data Recorderreads and stores data for later post flight analysis from ARINC buses 429 and 717

Building on the ARINC 834 interface, the EFB Data Recorder collects the aircraft’s relevant operational efficiency parameter en route and makes them available for subsequent analysis.  Using existing IT infrastructure on board, the EFB Data Recorder is a cost-effective alternative to hardware data recorders.

Post Flight Serversupports the analysis, monitoring, evaluation and reporting of airline-specific KPIs

The Post Flight Server is a web-based tool for operational efficiency and fuel conservation managers which can process flight data from a variety of sources (FOQA, EFB Data Recorder and others). Accumulating comparative data of planned, ECON and actually flown trajectories, the Post Flight Server identifies trends and recommends suitable efficiency policies and measures, which provide the basis for improved planning and briefing.
