CEFA FAS
Benefits
Flight data analysis and investigation software
Already used by more than 100 airlines worldwide, CEFA FAS (Flight Animation System) is a proven, advanced flight-data animation software that can run as a stand-alone solution by reading raw binary data from flight recorders or by interfacing with most of the available Flight Data Monitoring or Analysis software on the market.
Flight data analysis and pilot training
It is advantageously used in the area of flight data analysis and pilot training:
- to validate and investigate FOQA/FDM events
- to investigate flight incidents or accidents
- to raise leadership and pilots awareness to safety concerns
- to train line pilots by sharing lived experiences or for challenging airport familiarization
- to deal with manufacturers and authorities
- to produce animations that can be replayed on any mobile device, PC, and more.
CEFA FAS is a flight animation software that can be used:
- with type-specific cockpits, advanced flight instrument panel, external 3D views of the aircraft and 3D terrain & scenery views
- to reproduce any phase of flight such as take-off, landing, any occurrences like go-arounds, events, etc.
A turnkey solution for most aircraft types
CEFA FAS is aimed at safety experts and investigators within the airlines, to investigation bureaus, and to aircraft manufacturers. It is a turnkey solution that is ready to use and adapted to your fleet with animations that are:
- qualitative & accurate
- quickly available: only a few clicks needed to make an animation!
- powerful & user-friendly: intuitive interface using cutting-edge technology – reactive & gold-standard support with one face to the customer
- robust & reliable: a unique expertise in aircraft systems and software engineering & in-depth understanding of flight data complexity thanks to 24 years’ experience
Enhance flight safety with flight data
With its advanced and innovative features, it is also widely used for communication and pilot training needs through experience feedback.
CEFA FAS uses flight data and turns it into meaningful information that everyone can easily understand and use. It instantly shows each moment of an aircraft’s flight and thus provides a clear, precise image of the complex elements of a chain of events that occur during an incident or an accident – without compromise, assumption, or any incorrect interpretation.
This product has been designed, developed under a management system certified by Bureau Veritas against ISO 27001:2013.
Bureau Veritas Certification certificate number FR072772.
