RE:Is this a threat to Fly?Reading through the article, this application is designed to assist cockpit crews and air traffic controllers with optimal flight path selection.
Nowhere do they mention anything about realtime monitoring of aircraft systems, which is what AFIRS does, along with offering realtime data streaming..
I see them more a complementary products than competitors.
NASA's TASAR allows ailines to optimize flight paths on a flight-by-flight basis while FLYHT'S AFIRS allows them to monitor and optimize overall aircraft performance over time.
