Currently, maintenance analytics are often downloaded from an aircraft by USB stick or even burned to a CD, then sent to separate manufacturers to analyse - whether airframe, engine or sensor systems. This can add weeks or months to analysis, meaning that the information could arrive back with decision makers too late to take meaningful action. We have now demonstrated that an aircraft can transmit usage data as soon as it lands, so that those managing the fleet have instant access to the most relevant information and can take preventative action to prevent failures.
