Turkey's Freebird Airlines has selected RTX subsidiary Collins Aerospace to provide a software solution aimed at improving operations across its A320 fleet. The announcement was made at the Farnborough Airshow 2024.
Freebird Airlines will implement Ascentia, a cloud-based data management and analytics platform. This tool is expected to offer a comprehensive view of aircraft maintenance, enabling the airline to analyze maintenance data, predict and reduce aircraft-on-ground events, lower maintenance costs, and enhance passenger experience.
This agreement expands the suite of solutions currently utilized by Freebird Airlines, which includes OpsCore for aircraft flight tracking, Arinc Hermes for smart ACARS message management, and GlobalinkSM for communication services.
