Lido mPilot receives EASA Non-Technical Objection Letter supporting EFB operational approval

  • Voluntary EASA evaluation confirms alignment with EU air operations regulation for Lido mPilot 7
  • Lido mPilot is the first GPS interference awareness solution within an EFB evaluated by EASA and found compliant
  • Airlines benefit from simplified regulatory validation and OPS approval processes when rolling out the EFB solution Lido mPilot 7 across their fleet.

Raunheim, 19th March 2026. The pilot navigation solution Lido mPilot 7 from Lufthansa Systems has received a Non-Technical Objection Letter (NTOL) by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). The voluntary evaluation confirms that the Electronic Flight Bag solution (EFB) aligns with the applicable EU air operations regulation.

For airlines and aviation authorities, this evaluation provides regulatory clarity in an area where operators remain responsible for obtaining operational (OPS) approval from their competent national aviation authority. By proactively requesting the EASA evaluation, Lufthansa Systems supports airlines in facilitating and accelerating their approval process when introducing or upgrading to Lido mPilot 7 and activating additional modules.

What does the EASA NTOL mean for airlines?

The NTOL reduces regulatory friction and lowers uncertainty during EFB rollout and upgrade projects. In practical terms, the evaluation:

  • Confirms alignment with EU air operations rules
  • Provides operators with pre-validated compliance material
  • Reduces the effort required to demonstrate compliance to national aviation authorities
  • Supports faster transitions to paperless cockpit environments

Whenever airlines activate additional modules such as in-flight weather and Airport Moving Map (AMM), or out-of-the-box functionalities such as iPad mirroring on the A350 or GPS interference awareness, they are required to seek OPS approval by their local regulator. Providing the EASA NTOL can streamline authority evaluations and reduce approval effort.

First evaluated GPS interference awareness solution in an EFB

With this step, Lufthansa Systems positions itself as the first provider whose GPS interference awareness solution within an EFB application has been evaluated by EASA and found compliant with the applicable regulatory framework. At a time when GPS interference is increasingly affecting flight operations in certain regions, this evaluation underlines the maturity and robustness of the solution.

Similarly, Lido mPilot enhances usability in A350 cockpits through native iPad display mirroring. Pilots can seamlessly mirror and extend their iPad content directly onto the A350 display units, enabling interaction with Lido mPilot via cockpit peripherals, with the application depicting real‑time position sourced directly from the aircraft’s avionics. This improves operational efficiency and streamlines pilot workflows.

“By voluntarily undergoing the EASA evaluation, we underline our commitment to regulatory transparency and safety in mission-critical cockpit systems. The Non-Technical Objection Letter supports our airline customers in accelerating their OPS approval process while reducing regulatory uncertainty,” said Andreas Medlhammer, Product Owner Lido Charting Applications at Lufthansa Systems.

Lido mPilot as a mission-critical cockpit solution

Designed for airline operations, Lido mPilot enhances pilot situational awareness and streamlines cockpit workflows. The integrated charting application for iOS provides seamless access to terminal charts, a dynamically generated enroute map, an Airport Moving Map (AMM), weather overlays, and operational documents on the iPad. By elevating flight-relevant information based on aircraft position and flight plan, the solution reduces information overload and supports safe and efficient aircraft operations.

The latest version, Lido mPilot 7.1, was published in mid-March and introduces several usability improvements, including a new Liquid Glass user interface for a clearer and more consistent user experience and Grouped Enroute Company Layers to simplify layer management. Further enhancements include Vertical Profile Autofocus, which automatically highlights the relevant upcoming section of the route, supporting pilots in maintaining situational awareness. The release also enables the automatic addition of enroute alternates from ATC flight plans directly into the flight folder. Lido mPilot 7.0 was introduced in 2025 and is already in operational use. The NTOL further strengthens confidence in the current version and future developments within the product line.

Norse Atlantic Airways Selects EFBOne to Digitize and Optimize Global Long-Haul Operations

COPENHAGEN, DENMARK – International Flight Support (IFS) is proud to announce that Norse Atlantic Airways has selected EFBOne as its Electronic Flight Bag platform provider. Following a thorough assessment involving Flight Operations, IT, Dispatch, Fuel, and Procurement, Norse Atlantic chose EFBOne to digitize and optimize cockpit workflows across its growing global network, connecting Europe with the US, Asia, and Africa.

The selection process was based on a hands-on trial led by Norse’s Deputy Chief Pilot and EFB Admin, Alexander Helge. The trial took place during live long-haul flights, utilizing fully parsed Electronic Flight Folder (EFF) data to confirm that the system met the needs of their diverse operations, ranging from high-traffic hubs such as New York, Rome, and Athens to long-range destinations such as Bangkok, Phuket, and Cape Town.

Beyond standard operational testing, the trial highlighted the unique flexibility of the EFBOne platform. Utilizing NEO, the EFBOne self-service configuration tool, the team was able to independently modify screen layouts and implement conditional logic in the demo environment prior to any training. This capability allowed Norse to validate that they could adapt the EFB to their specific SOPs without reliance on vendor-side change requests.

The partnership was strengthened by a detailed alignment phase involving Norse’s IT, Dispatch, Fuel, and Procurement teams. The final solution supports critical operational requirements across their network, including:

  • Regulatory Compliance: Automated data flows supporting complex reporting mandates such as ReFuelEU.
  • Operational Awareness: The distribution of central loadsheets and integrated inbound/outbound data workflows.
  • Navigation Standards: Specific configurations for NAT HLA waypoints, ensuring compliance on oceanic tracks to the US.
  • Data Integration: Extensive use of the EFBOne Export Service to ensure data captured in the cockpit is instantly available to third-party systems and internal databases.

We are thrilled to welcome Norse Atlantic Airways to the IFS family. Our goal is to help the Norse team streamline their operations and ensure that cockpit processes are as smooth and efficient as possible, whether they are flying to the US, Thailand, or South Africa. It was particularly rewarding to see their team embrace our configuration tools so early in the process, proving that EFBOne can truly be tailored to their unique operational SOPs.” – Yuliia Dolko, EFB Expert

The announcement follows the successful completion of EFBOne Admin Training by the Norse team in Copenhagen, marking the beginning of the implementation phase.

“Being able to test EFBOne hands-on with our own flight plans and operational data made a significant difference in our decision. The platform is intuitive and highly configurable, allowing us to tailor workflows to our specific needs from the very start. As an airline operating a diverse mix of long-haul scheduled and ACMI flights, flexibility and digital data integration are essential for us. EFBOne stood out by combining modern functionality, strong operational support, and the ability for our team to adapt the system independently as our requirements evolve.”

  • Capt. Alexander Helge, Deputy Chief Pilot and EFB Admin

About International Flight Support International Flight Support (IFS) is a Danish aviation technology provider specializing in advanced EFB solutions. Since 2002, IFS has set standards for paperless cockpit operations. Its flagship product, EFBOne, is a fully configurable platform that integrates all flight operation requirements into a single interface and is used by leading airlines to enhance efficiency and safety.

Swiftair Selects EFBOne to Go Fully Paperless Across Cargo & Passenger Operations

COPENHAGEN, DENMARK – International Flight Support (IFS) announces that Swiftair, a leading Spanish cargo and passenger operator, has selected the EFBOne platform to standardize and digitize across its diverse fleet, replacing paper-based processes with a fully integrated electronic flight bag (EFB) workflow.

Prior to implementing EFBOne, Swiftair’s flight crews faced a heavy administrative workload. A single flight could require nearly 30 pages of printed reports, in addition to briefing packages containing hundreds of pages, with NOTAMs alone reaching up to 50 pages per sector. Managing multiple paper documents increased workload, slowed operational reporting, and introduced avoidable complexity for flight crews making operational reporting inefficient.

With EFBOne, Swiftair consolidates flight planning, flight scheduling, performance data, charts, and operational reporting into one platform, allowing crews to execute the full flight workflow digitally without switching applications or handling paper. 

During the review phase, Swiftair’s EFB Administrators tested and validated the system’s configuration capabilities, confirming they could independently set up occurrence reporting, workflows, and cockpit layouts in line with the airline’s SOPs. This enables Swiftair to adapt swiftly to operational and regulatory changes, support multiple fleet types, and manage the platform internally without reliance on external support.

“Working with Swiftair from the early stages allowed us to align closely on technical, operational, and regulatory requirements to ensure EFBOne met their specific needs,” said Yuliia Dolko, EFB Expert at International Flight Support. “The SwiftAir team was highly engaged and detail-oriented throughout the project. We are pleased to have them onboard and look forward to a long-term collaboration.”

“For Swiftair, as an operator of a large fleet of different manufacturers and aircraft types, both cargo and passenger, the flexibility and configurability offered by EFBOne is a cornerstone of our business, “ said Miguel Ángel Fernández Ramos, Flight Operations Manager at Swiftair. “It not only digitizes our cockpits and eliminates paper, but it also integrates data from our back-office systems and supports operational analysis, which is essential for a company like Swiftair.”

He added: “The user interface and configuration tool (NEO) are key to increasing flexibility across fleets, reducing training timelines, and supporting scalability and adaptation to changing regulatory requirements in the aviation sector.  Overall, the IFS team has lived up to expectations, providing support at the level expected for large companies in the aeronautical sector.”
