FLIGHT DATA ANALYTICS FOR PART 135 OPERATORS
The discipline of an airline safety program, built for the charter fleet.
A complete view of how every departure and approach in your operation is flown, with nothing installed on the aircraft. Each month, your safety committee receives findings and recommendations measured against your own standards.
No hardware · Every flight · Your standards
THE PLATFORM
See each flight the way it was flown.
Replay any departure or approach in three dimensions, over the real airport, against the published path and the airspace around it. Height, speed, descent rate and track sit beside the picture, so a finding is something your team can see, not just a number in a table.
Clips can be shared with the people who need them, with the tail number and date left off.
EVENT REVIEW
Every finding rated, so you know where to look first.
Each flight is checked against your own limits and every finding is rated Low, Medium or High. Your safety team opens the flights that matter, reviews what happened at each gate and records the decision.
WHY IT MATTERS
Flight Data Analytics has long been out of reach for most charter operators.
The hardware. Traditional programs depend on recorders and quick-access units in every airplane, often a six-figure investment per tail before the first report is produced.
The workload. Even with recorders installed, data must be retrieved, processed and interpreted before a committee can act on it. Most operators do not have that analyst on staff.
The expectation. Part 135 operators must declare SMS compliance by May 28, 2027. Measuring how the operation is actually flown is how a safety management system demonstrates that it works.
WHAT WE MEASURE
Every phase that matters, measured against your standards.
Event definitions and limits follow your own manuals, not a generic template. Every finding is rated Low, Medium or High so your team knows where to look first.
Departures
Runway use and initial climb profile
Turns and configuration changes at low altitude
Departure risk rated for every flight
Approaches and landings
Flight path against the published approach
Stabilized approach criteria and descent rate
Touchdown point and long landings
Go-arounds, captured and reviewed
Context and trends
Weather conditions for each operation
Controlled airspace around each departure and arrival
Published arrival and departure procedures, with their altitude and speed restrictions
Trends by airport, fleet and phase of flight
Baselines that show whether changes are working
PRIVACY AND JUST CULTURE
A program your pilots can trust.
Flight data improves an operation only when crews believe it will be used to learn, not to punish. Every program starts with a written non-punitive policy and a gatekeeper your pilots know.
REPORTS
Findings your safety committee can act on, delivered on schedule.
Reports arrive automatically each month, on the first or the day you choose, each with recommendations drawn from industry practice, regulatory guidance and line experience.
Safety committee report
A monthly or quarterly report built for the committee table: what happened, why it matters and what to do about it.
Trends across departures and approaches
Notable events with context
Recommendations, from pilot bulletins to baseline indicators and targets
Crew report
A de-identified summary for your pilots, written to inform rather than single anyone out.
Airports and fleet types only
No tail numbers, dates or times
Clear lessons drawn from the line
Leadership overview
One page for your Accountable Executive and directors, showing the health of the operation at a glance.
Departure and approach risk
The measures behind each rating
Direction of travel since last period
Online review
A secure dashboard for your safety team to explore the data between reports.
Filter by airport, fleet and risk
Review flagged flights in detail
Replay flights in 3D, with the data alongside
Track how the operation is trending
HOW IT WORKS
In service without touching an airplane.
1. Authorize your fleet
Designate the aircraft to be monitored and grant access to their flight data. No installation, no maintenance downtime.
2. We tailor it to your operation
Event limits, risk ratings and report content are set to your GOM, SMS and SOPs, along with who receives each report.
3. Reports arrive every month
Your committee, crews and leadership each receive the report built for them. Aircraft with recorders can contribute that data as well.
OUR STANDARD
Established practice. Your data, kept yours.
Our methods follow published FAA and UK CAA guidance for flight data programs, the framework behind airline safety programs.
Your data is used only to produce your reports. Access is limited to the people you designate, and crew-facing material is de-identified by design: airports and fleet types only, never tail numbers, dates or times.
PRICING
One monthly rate per aircraft.
Rates decrease as your fleet grows. There are no installation fees, hardware costs or lengthy setup projects.
Every subscription includes
Departure and approach monitoring on every flight
Monthly safety committee, crew and leadership reports
Configuration to your GOM, SMS and SOPs
Secure online access for your safety team
Direct access to experienced Part 135 safety professionals
ABOUT US
Built by Part 135 operators, for Part 135 operators.
Flight Data Analytics was founded by Part 135 leaders who have chaired safety meetings, written the bulletins and answered to the auditors. We built the program we wanted for our own operations.
