TrustFlight Ltd. (TrustFlight), a technology innovator focused on the digitization of the aviation industry, announced the addition of a digital Flight Risk Assessment Tool (FRAT) to its portfolio of safety solutions for both fixed and rotary-wing aircraft. As an integrated piece of TrustFlight’s Electronic Logbook (ELB), FRAT provides operators with an objective means for pilots to assess risks for Go/No-Go decision-making directly from the cockpit.

“The recent rise in aviation incidents highlights the need for proactive measures to reduce risk and increase safety,” said Karl Steeves, CEO, TrustFlight. “Our software is designed to increase aircraft availability while integrating critical safety processes—we see FRAT as an important addition to the TrustFlight ecosystem.”

By evaluating a wide array of factors including weather conditions, aircraft readiness, pilot experience, and airport characteristics, FRAT enables flight operations teams to make informed decisions that prioritize safety prior to take-off. Customizable by the operator, FRAT assessments ensure that all flights meet stringent operator requirements to reduce the likelihood of incidents and accidents. Upon pilot completion of TrustFlight’s FRAT assessment, a Low, Medium, or High Risk rating for the flight is instantly displayed within cockpit EFBs. Completed FRAT scores are visible from the powerful TrustFlight dashboard for accurate reporting and powerful audit capabilities.

In addition to TrustFlight’s Electronic Logbook and MEL Manager, the firm also offers software including a Safety Management System (SMS), Quality Management System (QMS), and Reliability Analytics that seamlessly integrate for a unified user experience leading to accurate, actionable decision-making across the enterprise.
