TrustFlight Ltd. (TrustFlight), a technology innovator focused on digitization of the aviation industry, today announced the integration of FL3XX, the complete aviation management solution for sales, dispatch, crew, maintenance, reports, and management, into its industry-leading Electronic Tech Log (ETL) solution. The integration, enabled by TrustFlight’s Integration Platform, will ingest FL3XX flight data including flight, passenger, and crew information, directly into TrustFlight’s ELB to eliminate time-consuming data entry and associated errors.

“TrustFlight was founded on three principles—increasing safety, reducing risk, and ensuring compliance,” said Karl Steeves, CEO, TrustFlight. “With the integration of FL3XX, we’ve made the Electronic Logbook (ELB) process even easier so pilots can skip the manual entry and focus on flying. Additionally, operators can be certain that there are no journey log errors or overruns on duty, so compliance requirements are always met.”

With the integration, information already entered in FL3XX will populate in TrustFlight’s Electronic Logbook (ELB), reducing pilot workload by auto-completing required fields with readily available data. Additionally, as soon as onboard documents are completed by the flight crew, they’re immediately available to the operations team with bi-directional syncing. When the flight is completed, actual takeoff and landing times, crew duty times, or details of fuel usage are automatically exported into FL3XX. The integration ensures that aircraft records are kept up-to-date and accurate, which is often a challenge for operators running disparate systems across their organisation.

“We’re excited to continue our relationship with TrustFlight,” said Paolo Sommariva, CEO, FL3XX. “We have already worked with TrustFlight on creating an integration for their Safety Management System, TrustFlight Centrik, and the integration with their Electronic Tech Log (ETL) is a welcome addition for our global user base.”
