*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.

    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.

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.

    Next, you will learn about the latest ClearPath developments.  Firstly, the speed optimizer that finds the most cost-optimal speed profile for any given flight, based on the set mission target cost-index. As you will see ClearPath uses high-resolution data sources with a high-resolution aircraft performance model, to find the optimal speed in each flight segment that will provide a total cost-optimal speed profile. Secondly, the new dashboard monitoring tool that enables fuel efficiency managers to monitor and validate results for each flight.  Lastly, a contrail modelling and avoidance feature (utilizing a high-resolution humidity forecast) through changing flight levels.  You will see results from a 737 operator which shows significant contrail reductions.

  3. ClearPath Airline Case Studies: Norwegian, Volotea, and Volaris
    Next, with case studies from Volotea and Norwegian, AVTECH experts will share analyses, data, and experiences from implementations of ClearPath on both Airbus and Boeing aircraft.  You will see how the airlines are optimizing each flight and generating up to 5% of fuel and CO2 savings.  The data and analyses show where the most savings can be realized at particular sectors in each flight.  Examples you will see include a 787 trans-Atlantic flight showing how ClearPath was able to direct the pilots to change altitude to take maximum advantage of beneficial jet stream winds over Europe and save 1.7% of cruise fuel during that sector; as well as how Volaris saved 3,150 tons of fuel over the past year.

  4. Aventus Overview and Benefits: Real-Time Automated Optimized Wind and Temperature Data Uplink
    Next, you will see a demo and overview of Aventus which up-links precise wind and temperature data to the aircraft to improve FMC calculations during climb, cruise, and descent. As you will see, Aventus calculates the optimal wind levels to be inserted to best represent the current climb, cruise and descent wind profile for each flight, for optimum efficiency and significant fuel saving. The up-links can be sent directly to the FMC or as a text message to the cockpit.  Aventus utilizes the most accurate high-resolution weather forecasts from the UK Met Office, combined with AVTECH’s patented algorithms, to calculate optimum wind levels.

  5. UK Met-Office Global High-Resolution Weather Data
    Finally, you will see how all AVTECH’s services use global high-resolution weather provided by UK Met Office, and how the weather data used in each computation is unique and tailored for each flight. You will see how AVTECH retrieves this data in real-time to guarantee that the latest and most up to date weather is always used in-flight, ensuring the best flight optimizations.
