Warning: Implement custom ui for this post type.

*This webinar is open to airlines and aircraft operators only.

Register to view this On-Demand Webinar (recorded 4th September 2025) to see how the latest AI-driven data analysis, with integrated ADS-B data can provide pilots with the real-time situational awareness and the data they need to optimize fuel efficiency, for each phase of flight, from pre-flight planning to taxi-in, via a demo of FlyGuide, the powerful EFB App from StorkJet. As you will see FlyGuide, powered by advanced AI, tail-specific aircraft performance models, and with new integrated ADS-B real-time data, turns complex operational decisions into clear, data-driven guidance providing the intelligence crews need to make informed, cost-optimized decisions during all phases of flight, such as optimal flight paths, speeds, and altitudes to save fuel without compromising safety or reliability. The demos, utilizing real-world routes, live airport data, and historical performance records, will walk you through three critical phases of flight. First, for pre-flight fuel planning, you will see how to calculate an exact extra fuel load using two years of actual flight data to quantify overburn and underburn trends and, accounting for runway changes, to recommend the right extra fuel load and avoiding unnecessary weight and overburn. Next you will see how FlyGuide optimizes Single-Engine Taxi-Out, calculating the optimal engine-start points based on airport layout, warm-up times, and live ground traffic.

Finally, you will see how FlyGuide provides Pilots with the data in-flight to optimize flight descent management through anticipating ATC shortcuts using historical arrival patterns.  As you will see this allows crew to set realistic top-of-descent points, maintain idle-thrust profiles, and avoid costly early or late descents. Post-flight analysis reveals where further savings could be made.

The Webinar is divided into the following four key sections:

1. StorkJet Company and FlyGuide Overview
The Webinar begins with an overview of StorkJet’s fuel-efficiency and performance-monitoring ecosystem, including the Fuel Efficiency Dashboard – FuelPro, FlyGuide FPO for flight profile optimization and AdvancedAPM for aircraft performance monitoring. The Webinar will then focus on FlyGuide for pilots.  You will see how the system integrates live ADS-B data with years of flight history to improve the pilot’s situational awareness across every phase of flight, and deliver precise, actionable, and cost-optimized fuel saving recommendations.    

2. FlyGuide App – Demo 1: Extra Fuel Decision Making
First, you will see how FlyGuide provides the data needed to move beyond guesswork in pre-flight fuel planning.  The demo will start with the traditional process: stacks of flight plans, weather charts, and NOTAMs; and then show how FlyGuide uses two years of actual flight data to quantify overburn and underburn trends, account for runway changes, and recommend the right fuel load. You will learn how to replace blanket “extra fuel” with precise, confident decisions that avoid unnecessary weight and overburn.

3. FlyGuide App – Demo 2: Single-Engine Taxi-Out
Next, you will see how to capture the benefits of Single-Engine taxi without risking departure delays. The demo will show how FlyGuide calculates optimal engine-start points based on airport layout, warm-up times, and live ground traffic, allowing crews to adapt in real time and resulting in consistent savings, reduced workload, and no loss of operational flexibility.

4. FlyGuide App – Demo 4: Flight Descent Management
Finally you will discover why descent is the most fuel-critical phase of flight; and how anticipating ATC shortcuts can make or break efficiency. As you will see, using historical arrival patterns, FlyGuide helps crews set realistic top-of-descent points, maintain idle-thrust profiles, and avoid costly early or late descents. Post-flight analysis pinpoints deviations and quantifies the fuel cost, turning each flight into a learning opportunity.

Why Attend

• See live FlyGuide demonstrations using actual route and airport data
• Learn how AI-driven optimization outperforms rule-of-thumb practices

   – Pre-Flight:
   You will see the EFB App in pre-flight showing the route, optimum flight levels and high-resolution weather including CAT, SIGMETS, METAR/TAF, convective thunderstorms, Nat tracks. The clear air turbulence, and hazardous weather such as thunderstorms is clearly shown both in the horizontal and the vertical view.
   
   – Climb-Out and Cruise:
   AVTECH kicks in once the aircraft is rolling down the runway.  The aircraft performance is now set so that the system now simulates the flight in advanced ground computers which optimize all phases of flight in real-time calculating the most cost effective, and safe flight plan.
   
   In the climb-out phase AVTECH sends the optimum in-flight step/descent and speeds, via the cockpit printer, for the greatest efficiency gains in cruise, based on the airline’s selected cost index, actual aircraft performance data, and the real-time weather and atmospheric conditions.  You will also see how AVTECH assists pilots to avoid turbulence actively monitoring hazards along the route and sending alerts via the printer.
   
   – Descent:
   Next for descent you will see how advanced wind data uplinks are automatically sent to the FMC minimizing wind error and an optimum top of descent point can be calculated.
   
   – Post-Flight:
   Finally, you will see the powerful post-flight dashboard which provides detailed analytics for each flight showing detailed fuel and CO2 savings.
   
   
3. SAS Scandinavian Airlines Case Study, Service Deployment, Business Case & ROI:
   The AVTECH team will then run through a case study showcasing SAS, who implemented the flight level optimization and hazardous weather alerts features in 2024.  As you will see more than 2% of fuel savings was achieved with approximately 10,000 flights.  
   
   You will learn how easily the services can be deployed and the different options to suite each airline (ACARS, IP, MCDU, Cockpit Printer, Pilot’s EFB); plus, a business case outline showcasing how AVTECH increases airline profitability from day one, and provides a return on investment within 15 days.

*This Webinar is open to airlines and aircraft operators only

Register to view this On-Demand Webinar (recorded 20th February 2025) and see how AI-driven, airline-specific insights can transform raw data into meaningful, actionable intelligence and reshape any airline’s approach to Fuel Efficiency.  During the Webinar, you will learn when an AI-driven approach is better than conventional analytics and, via a demo of an AI generated and detailed taxi speed heatmap, how a multi-layer ’Analytical Sandwich’ approach helps to save time and provides more accurate results. You will also see the pitfalls of Large Language Models (LLMs) when they lack aviation data, and you will be shown how an aviation expert-led framework ensures higher accuracy and deeper insights. The StorkJet team will then showcase and demo the popular FuelPro LAB, the end-to-end AI dashboard, which securely manages operational data processing analytics, protecting sensitive data without hiding key insights, and supporting all flight phases, from flight planning to landing. You will see how FuelPro’s 48 predefined fuel initiatives (flight path optimization, single-engine taxi-in, final reserve fuel, etc.) allow airlines to monitor key performance metrics, identify fuel-saving opportunities, and proactively reduce fuel consumption.

Next, via demos of FuelPro LAB, and utilizing real Fail/Pass scenarios (QAR and OFP Data: Arrival Overburn Analysis, Distance Analysis, Landing Gear Extension Analysis) you will see why generic LLMs may fall short on airline-specific tasks and how adopting specialized fuel efficiency intelligence, robust data structures, and advanced prompts can empower airlines to deliver better results faster. The StorkJet experts will show you how to gain practical strategies and insights that will elevate your expertise and reshape your airline’s approach to fuel efficiency. By the end of this session, you’ll see how StorkJet merges AI innovation with deep airline expertise to drive better analytics, stronger operational insights, and secure data management—beyond the limits of traditional methods or General AIs.

The Webinar is divided into 3 key sections:

1. StorkJet Company and Product Overview
   In this section, StorkJet will present its comprehensive solutions portfolio: FuelPro; FlyGuide, an EFB App for pilots; FlyGuideFPO, for flight profile optimization in-flight; and AdvancedAPM, for aircraft performance monitoring. You will learn more about how the solutions tackle an airline’s operational challenges and enhance fuel efficiency. You will also discover how StorkJet’s data-driven performance models deliver complete fuel efficiency solutions for all aircraft types.
   
   
2. FuelPro: Fuel Efficiency Dashboard with Multilayered Analytical Concept
   Next, the StorkJet team will introduce and demo FuelPro, showing how its comprehensive analytical dashboard efficiently manages an airline’s fuel program, supporting all flight phases, from flight planning to landing.
   
   You will discover how FuelPro’s 48 predefined fuel initiatives allow airlines to monitor key performance metrics, identify fuel-saving opportunities, and proactively reduce fuel consumption. The team will demonstrate how FuelPro integrates industry-recognized initiatives and self-developed analyses, in a multi-layered approach, providing airlines with the tools to track progress toward sustainability goals.
   
   You will see how the Analytical Sandwich Framework is a key feature, showing how its four-layer approach—combining expert oversight with AI-driven techniques—offers deeper, more accurate insights without any single layer replacing the others. Each layer has its own strengths and weaknesses, but together they create a complementary whole.
   
   The StorkJet team will showcase a demo from FuelPro Lab (AI-driven analytical layer):
   
   – As you will see FuelPro Lab generates a detailed taxi speed heatmap; which, with conventional methods (dashboards and BI tools) alone, would force us to oversimplify second-by-second data into simple aggregates, losing critical nuances.
   – By integrating AI-driven analysis into the framework, we retain all valuable details demonstrating how each layer contributes its unique advantage to achieve a more comprehensive result.
   
   
3. FuelPro Lab vs. General AI (LLMs, ChatGPT, GenAI)
   Finally, the StorkJet team explore the differences between using FuelPro Lab and traditional Large Language Models (LLMs). While LLMs have revolutionized various industries, they often struggle with highly specialized aviation data used in fuel efficiency analysis. The current state of General AIs often lacks the domain-specific context required to provide accurate or actionable insights.
   
   As you will see, FuelPro Lab steps in to overcome these limitations by integrating StorkJet’s deep fuel expertise with the power of LLMs, creating a solution tailored specifically for operational efficiency analysis. Unlike General AI models, FuelPro Lab understands aviation data in context. It provides actionable insights in a single, efficient query, eliminating the need for multiple, cumbersome prompts and streamlining the workflow.
   
   To demonstrate the power of FuelProLab, StorkJet will compare it with generic LLMs using real fail/pass scenarios. You’ll see how FuelProLab’s aviation-focused intelligence outperforms basic LLMs in tasks such as;
   
   – Landing Gear Extension Analysis (second-by-second QAR data)
   – Distance Analysis aggregated QAR data vs OFP)
   – Arrival Overburn Analysis (aggregated QAR data vs OFP)
   
   ChatGPT would need multiple prompts and might still fail due to a lack of aviation-specific knowledge. In contrast, FuelProLab, with its aviation expertise, identifies these tasks quickly and accurately, much like an experienced airline analyst compared to a beginner.

By the end of this session, you’ll see how StorkJet merges AI innovation with deep airline expertise to drive better analytics, stronger operational insights, and secure data management—beyond the limits of traditional methods or General AIs.

* This Webinar is for airlines and aircraft operators only

Register to view this On-Demand Webinar (recorded 5th September 2024) to see the latest advances in digital and automated fleet and tail-specific aircraft performance monitoring (APM), powered by real-time operational data and Artificial Intelligence with a demo of the AdvancedAPM platform from StorkJet. During the Webinar, the StorkJet team will demo the unparalleled precision and key features of AdvancedAPM, using real-world scenarios showing how airlines can reduce fuel consumption and maintenance costs, while increasing pilot trust in the planned fuel, plus lowering overburns and discretionary fuel. For maintenance, you will see how airlines can use precise APM monitoring to assess the impact of maintenance events on fuel consumption to a precision of 0.1%, plus how auto-monitoring of QAR parameters alerts engineers to worrying trends that can be addressed in scheduled maintenance to increase the aircraft’s performance and fuel efficiency. Additionally, you will see how to lower overburns with automatic export of performance factors to Flight Planning Systems to identify precisely where overburns are coming from; plus you will see how AdvancedAPM assists airlines to perform more efficient flights with optimum Mach Bias calculations for cruise, using idle/drag factor to optimize the FMS descent path, matching the actual aerodynamic performance of the aircraft, and climb thrust reduction to monitor climb derates and tapers and to save on engine maintenance costs. Finally, you will also see how the solution’s automated data processing and alerts lowers the workloads for performance engineers, giving them time to optimize the performance of each aircraft.

The Webinar will explore three topics most relevant to the APM process:

1. AdvancedAPM Demo 1: Impact of Maintenance Events on Fuel Consumption and Alerting.
   First, you will see how airlines use AdvancedAPM to optimize maintenance.  As you will see, thanks to the precision of AdvancedAPM deterioration calculations, airlines can monitor changes in fuel consumption day-by-day to a precision of 0.1%, with no data averaging or smoothing required. Suppose a maintenance event changes the fuel consumption of an aircraft by 0.1%. In that case, you can spot it immediately by looking at deterioration the day before and the day after the action. Other APM processes require averaging the data over more extended periods which introduces noise in analysis due to other effects than the studied maintenance events.
   
   In addition, automatic monitoring of QAR parameters alerts you to worrying trends so you can plan maintenance actions to increase your aircraft’s performance and fuel efficiency.
   
   
2. AdvancedAPM Demo 2: Overburn Reduction thanks to automatic APIs to flight planning software.
   Next, you will see how AdvancedAPM allows airlines to automatically transfer calculated performance factors to selected Flight Planning Software providers. You will see how the solution also gives users complete control over the transferred values, allowing them to configure the approval process and transfer data on any schedule, as often as every day.
   
   As you will also see, the solution supports flexible export formats, so if an airline’s processes require specifically formatted CSV performance factor export, that is possible.
   
   In addition, thanks to AdvancedAPM consulting, airlines will know precisely where their overburns are coming from. Is it the APM process, Flight Planning System imprecisions, or just extensive holdings? As you will see StorkJet will not only inform users where the problem is, but will also help airlines tackle these challenges.
   
   
3. AdvancedAPM Demo 3: Burn less fuel thanks to additional performance analyses.
   Finally, you will see how, with AdvancedAPM, airlines can also reduce fuel consumption and maintenance costs thanks to performance analyses such as:
   
   – Optimum Mach Bias calculation for B787 – allowing the aircraft to report precise speed and realize all possible savings from FMC ECON speed.
   
   – Idle/Drag Factor for Descent – optimizes the FMS descent path to match the actual aerodynamic performance of the aircraft, allowing airlines to fly longer with idle thrust and have more stable approaches with less speed brakes usage.
   
   – Climb Thrust Reduction – allows airlines to monitor climb derates and tapers, saving on engine maintenance costs and slowing down engine deterioration.
