Specialists at "Yakovlev" have developed and certified the first electronic flight manual for the Superjet-100 aircraft in Russia. Following a review, Rosaviatsiya issued an approval for a major change to the type certificate, allowing the inclusion of a computerized section on flight characteristics in the manual. The flight manual is the main technical document containing information necessary for airlines to perform takeoff and landing calculations.
As part of the work on this major change to the certificate, "Yakovlev" developed software that will allow operators of the domestic aircraft to calculate the characteristics of the aircraft before departure more quickly, conveniently, and efficiently.
One of our priorities is to build a productive dialogue with customers. We strive to develop all areas of our interaction, using current trends and modern technologies. For the convenience of operators, we are the first in Russia to receive a certificate for an electronic flight manual. The latest development will not only save time on pre-flight calculations, but also significantly increase their accuracy. In the near future, we intend to conduct training in airlines, issue a change to the flight manual, and implement the software.
The maximum landing and takeoff weights, as well as landing and takeoff speeds, taking into account all the limitations stipulated by the Aviation Regulations, will now be calculated using a special program in a convenient digital environment.
