Downloads HD

Using Downloads HD

Open the APP

Select the Browser at the bottom of the page

Enter the Groupworld address for the crew portal

Enter your staff number and passcode

At the FOIP home page, select GABI

At the GABI Homepage, select the Icon with the square and arrow-right, (just to the left of the address bar) and select ADD BOOKMARK

Select SETTINGS at the bottom of the page and CUT & PASTE the web address to the Home Page - Downloads HD is smart enough to know it ALWAYS needs to open the Crew Portal Page first for your 's' number and passCODE and will then automatically open the GABI page next for your 's' number and passWORD

After entering your details on the GABI Home Page it will open the page for flights as per the portal

Select your flight by tapping on the appropriate FLT number - it will highlight in blue

Below the address bar a new TAB will open called 'Flight Plan' - to the right of a Tab called 'Flight Opera....'

Tap on the Flight PLAN tab and get the page asking if you are retrieving for the flight crew - tap 'NO'

Then, tap the left hand TAB again and you will be back at the GABI page with the flight plan displayed or downloading.

With the OFP displayed, scroll to the bottom of the list of flights and under the heading 'Briefing Package", tap on 'Save'

A third TAB will open saying 'Downloading - ignore it!

WAIT a few seconds. A new WINDOW will soon open with 3 options, tap the middle one - 'DOWNLOAD"

The previous window disappears and another window will open called 'Add Download'.

In the text of the window is a complicated file name - just tap the blue 'Done' Icon at top right of the window - it will disappear in consequence.

A red bubble containing '1' may or may not appear on the Icon at the top of the page - a square with a DOWN arrow, (for downloading)

At the BOTTOM of the page, tap the middle Icon - "File Manager'.

At the top left of the next page tap 'My Files" and in the resulting list your flight number and date will appear, (or soon appear if it didn't finish downloading), as e.g.: EK_212_22Apr21012_IAH-DXB...

Tap on that and your entire flight plan is displayed in .pdf format and gorgeous living colour...

Works 999 times out of 1000!
