No New Line, you didn't ask anything secret, you just didn't explain why you were asking, it always helps. If you are making reference to an airline and their systems in any study or report it is much better to speak with them directly, I think you will find that they will be more than helpful.

easyJet use Airdata.

Thanks Alpha Charlie,

I know the best way would be to write them directly, but...

..my experience is a little bit negative or opposite. I sent quite alot letters to many airlines, but I didn't get any response <img src="confused.gif" border="0"> ..dunno, maybe it's because I live outside EU, maybe they got a lot of work, really hard to say.. That was the reason why I try pprune.

Anyway, thanks for that information, last week I found AirData's webpage, but didn't learn anything from that. Could you write me more about them, please? Do you have any experience with their software? I also found a Swiss provider Atraxis, which also offers flight planning solution. I've heard Swissair, Sabena and SAA used their solution for flight planning. Do you know anything about that provider and their service?

What do you think, which solution offers more advantages? "in-house" pc based or "remote"(dunno if that term is correct) provider based installation? I mean, concerning the price, in-house installation would be cheaper than remote one, but how is it with securing the safety of the system? Concerning the sefety, the remote installation looks more advantageous and more effective, because solution provider is responsible for updating all databases instead of in-house installation when you need someone who will undertake the responsibility of updating database, which could lead to quite bad troubles. Am I right?

Thanks

There is really no substitute for:

1. Defining a specification, i.e. what do you need out of the system, in operational and support terms

2. Contacting likely suppliers, have them come along and demonstrate their kit

3. Select the most likely candidates based on spec and cost

4. Then find an airline that is using the same system in the way you are most likely to and then go and visit them to get a first hand account of the good and bad side of the systems.

Good Luck

NewLine02,

Don't trust everything you read on Atraxis' Web-Site. Although SAA is listed as an axsFlightPlanning user they actually use the SITA Fligth Briefing Solution for all their operational flights and have done for the past 19 years.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it!!

Whooaahh!!!
