Weather is the single biggest driver of disruption in aviation – 74% of air traffic delays trace back to inclement weather, U.S. delays cost an estimated $44B in 2023, and a single lightning strike can cost around $12,000 per minute until the ramp reopens. With clear-air turbulence projected to increase two to three times in the coming decades, the cost of staying reactive keeps climbing for airlines, airports, and FBOs alike.

Register to view this On-Demand Webinar (recorded 30th July 2026) and join The Weather Company experts as they demo how the Maverick® platform turns rising weather volatility into confident, proactive decisions across every phase of flight, backed by the world’s most accurate forecaster – trusted by roughly 25,000 flights a day across 350+ aviation clients.

You will see how one modern SaaS (Software as a Service) foundation, powered by the rapid-updating GRAF® high-resolution global model, Forecasts on Demand™, and proprietary AI such as TrACR and Smart NOTAMs, delivers a shared source of truth from the ops center to the ramp to the flight deck. During the Webinar you will be taken on live deep-dive demos of two flagship solutions: Maverick Dispatch™, the next-generation flight-following experience that cuts through alert fatigue and fragmented data with contextual, AI-driven insight; and Maverick Ground Ops™, which delivers high-fidelity lightning alerting and predictive airside intelligence to protect people and throughput for airline ground teams, airports, and FBOs.

Next, you will see how that same intelligence travels from ground to air with a look at Pilotbrief®, the in-cockpit EFB trusted by 80,000 users a day, and Maverick WXAlert™, which delivers critical enroute alerts to the cockpit via ACARS, even when connectivity is limited. Finally, The Weather Company experts will share the benefits of managing weather with one proven partner, preflight to touchdown.

The Webinar is divided into the following key sections:

1. Introduction to The Weather Company Aviation

The Webinar will open with a short introduction to The Weather Company and why the partner airline’s and operator’s choice matters as weather intensifies. You’ll learn what sets The Weather Company foundation apart: recognized by ForecastWatch as the world’s most accurate forecaster – nearly 4 times more likely to be the most accurate than the next closest competitor, and backed by nearly 30 years of aviation forecasting and a global, FAA EWINS-compliant meteorology team. You’ll see how The Weather Company combines operational data with the world’s most accurate weather, applies industry-leading AI and weather science, and delivers tools built specifically for the cross-functional teams critical to operational success: dispatchers, air traffic managers, ground operations, and pilots.

2. The Maverick® platform overview and its benefits

Next, the Webinar will look at the connective tissue that ties the entire suite together – one modern, enterprise-grade SaaS foundation. How do you keep the ops center, the ramp lead, and the flight deck all working from the same source of truth? And how do you cut through alert noise without missing what matters? You’ll see how the Maverick Platform answers both with an overview of the following key features:

• A unified cloud experience with real-time parity across web and mobile for common situational awareness across teams, roles, and tenants;
• The condition manager: a flexible alerting engine spanning lightning, wind, ceiling, visibility, flight rule, precipitation, temperature, and more powering actionable alerting across Dispatch, Ground Ops, and WXAlert;
• Leading weather science built in: the rapid-updating GRAF® model, Forecasts on Demand™ and Currents on Demand™, and proprietary AI (TrACR, AAR/ADR) embedded directly into the workflow;
• A lean, feature-flagged platform that scales with your operation and reduces IT burden.

3. Maverick Dispatch™ Demo – Next-Gen flight following solution with embedded AI:

Dispatchers sit at the heart of flight operations, yet they’re overwhelmed with data and starved for actionable intelligence, with one design-partner dispatcher observed working across 22 open browser tabs. The Weather Company will show why it’s time for a new dispatch experience, followed by a deep-dive live demo focusing on the following:

• Contextual weather alerting that highlights critical information: convective and turbulence hazards, airport holding, taxi delays, route changes; to reduce cognitive load;
• Rapid-updating GRAF® map layers plus an expanded overlay suite (satellite, tropical tracks, volcanic ash, turbulence, oceanic tracks, aeronautical charts, NAVAIDs, and airways), with Forecasts on Demand™ surfacing airport-level risk at a glance;
• Embedded AI and analytics: TrACR (terminal airspace convective risk), airport capacity insights, taxi time and de-icing risk for faster IROPS decisions;
• Integrated Route Manager to plot, search, and compare routes, CDRs, and preferred routings on the map with weather and hazards in the same view;
• Smart NOTAMs that use AI to group and prioritize what matters, plus authorized-airport alerting for built-in compliance and safety;
• Global Surface Movement with NOTAM visualization keeps you informed through real-time updates on aircraft positioning with impacting NOTAMs visually displayed;
• Real-world results from design partners, including reduced system-switching and measurable reductions in turbulence-related safety reports and fuel burn.

4. Maverick Ground Ops™ Demo – Predictive lightning and airside intelligence:

On the ground, every minute of an unnecessary ramp closure cascades missed connections, congested gates, slipped turn times, but close too late, and you put crews at risk during a lightning strike. Built for airlines, airports, and FBOs, Maverick Ground Ops ends that impossible trade-off. You’ll see why the era of reactive operations is over, followed by a deep-dive live demo:

• High-fidelity lightning alerting with airport-configurable, color-shifting caution and warning range rings, delivered via visual banners, audio signals, and toast notifications;
• All-weather foresight: See how Forecasts on Demand™ (FOD) helps users know exactly when critical conditions change, from sudden wind shifts to freezing precipitation and high heat;
• Unified situational awareness: One source of truth synchronized across web and mobile, from the ops center to the ramp lead to ground handlers, with mobile push reaching crews who aren’t at a computer;
• One solution across the airfield: Airlines, airports, and FBOs can manage multiple locations from a single portal using standard ICAO codes.

5. From ground to air: Pilotbrief® and Maverick WXAlert™ Overviews – EFB and ACARS cockpit tools:

Weather intelligence pays off fully when it reaches the cockpit. Next you will see how the decisions made with the ops center and at the ramp, follow the flight into the air.

First, a brief look at Pilotbrief – the electronic flight bag (EFB) companion trusted by 80,000 users a day worldwide, which lets crews overlay their flight route with the world’s most accurate weather from surface to FL500, with RPM Turbulence Forecasting powered by GRAF®, centralized turbulence layers and alerts, and AI-summarized Smart NOTAMs, so pilots see, source, and avoid hazards from their seat.

Then a brief look at Maverick WXAlert™, which closes the information gap when it matters most: delivering clear, reliable enroute alerts (EDR, TAPS, PIREPs, SIGMETs, and FPGs) to the cockpit via ACARS, even in low-connectivity scenarios, and, powered by the Maverick condition manager, notifying dispatchers and pilots simultaneously and ahead of SIGMET and FPG amendments.

6. The value of common situational awareness

The Webinar will close by bringing it all together: one proven partner from preflight to touchdown. You’ll see how proven accuracy, trusted scale, and continuous innovation combine across a single integrated Maverick® suite to deliver safer operations, reclaimed network resilience, and confident decisions for every team, from the dispatch desk to the ramp to the flight deck, as weather continues to intensify.

(WNI), and see how AI-assisted decision support, built on 40 years of rigorously validated global weather intelligence, transforms the daily dispatch workflow from reactive monitoring to proactive risk management. During the Webinar, WNI product experts will provide a step-by-step demo of SkyAviators following a typical day for a dispatcher, including managing operations during adverse weather conditions.  You will see how dispatchers begin their day with a clear real-time, color-coded dashboard of global weather risks, allowing them to instantly pinpoint airports and locations that require immediate attention. You will then see how the solution recommends the optimal weather model for those locations, based on the specific operational scenario, answers any complex meteorological questions, and supports dispatch decisions alignedwith the airline’s policies. Next, you will see how dispatch can calculate extra fuel and select alternate airports for each flight by comparing multiple global models, removing guesswork and optimizing efficiency; plus, how the weather overview feature automatically generates briefing materials, ensuring crew and dispatchers share the same real-time operational picture.  Finally, you will see how the system automatically tracks flights en-route, continuously monitoring PIREPs, turbulence, etc., and enables dispatchers to send uplink comms to flight crew to mitigate risks.

The Webinar begins with a look at the challenges facing flight dispatchers and aviation meteorology teams today, with increasing operational complexity as weather volatility, fuel costs, and network efficiency pressures continue to grow. Relying solely on manual processes and individual experience is no longer scalable. Today’s challenge isn’t a lack of weather data—it’s turning that data into timely, consistent operational action. During the Webinar you will discover how the SkyAviators platform cuts through information overload, bridging the gap between raw meteorological data and immediate operational decisions—ultimately leading to safer, more efficient, and highly resilient flight operations.

The Webinar is divided into the following key sections:

1. Industry Challenges & The WNI Philosophy:
   
   The Webinar begins with WNI experts examining the macro forces reshaping flight operations: fuel cost pressures, extreme weather volatility, and the loss of veteran dispatch expertise. You will learn why unvalidated weather data is insufficient for high-stakes decisions, and how WNI’s philosophy of continuously validating forecasts against actual flight outcomes, and rigorously tuning AI models for aviation safety (balancing precision and recall to eliminate critical misses), creates truly actionable intelligence.
   
   
2. SkyAviators Demo 1: Strategic Decision Hub – Global Network Triage:
   
   Next, you will see how dispatchers start their shift not by manually stitching together data, but by viewing an instant, color-coded dashboard of global weather risks. The demo will show the system automatically groups airports by weather impact severity (High Wind Speed, Low Visibility, Low Ceiling, and Thunderstorm, etc.), allowing dispatchers to instantly pinpoint which locations require immediate attention; changing their posture from reactive to proactive.
   
   
3. SkyAviators Demo 2: Airport Intelligence and AI Agent Support:
   
   Next, for high-risk airports, the demo will dive into pinpoint forecasting. You will discover how SkyAviators’ Airport Intelligence recommends the optimal numerical weather model based on the specific operational scenario for that flight, allowing dispatchers to plan with confidence. You will also see the aviation-specialized AI Agent—trained on 40 years of WNI consulting data— is able to instantly answer complex meteorological questions and support dispatch decisions aligned with the airline’s policies.
   
   
4. SkyAviators Demo 3: Model Comparison and Weather Overview:
   
   Next you will how SkyAviators supports dispatchers to confidently calculate extra fuel and select alternate airports by comparing multiple global models side-by-side, giving dispatchers an objective, data-driven basis for their choices. You will see how visualizing the ‘uncertainty’ (spread) in forecast models removes dispatch guesswork and allows for optimum planning and efficiency.  Additionally, the demo will show how the Weather Overview feature automatically generates standardized briefing materials, ensuring crew and dispatchers share the exact same real-time operational picture.
   
   
5. SkyAviators Demo 4: Automated En-Route Hazard Detection & Uplink:
   
   Next, you will see how SkyAviators protects flights already in the air. The demo will show the automated en-route risk function that continuously monitors PIREPs, rapid cumulonimbus (Cb) development, and turbulence threats along planned routes. Watch how the system detects hazards and instantly identifies all affected aircraft, including those currently in or approaching the risk zone, and presents them for immediate dispatcher action. Dispatchers can then execute timely ACARS-based Uplink communications to alert flight crews, with the full uplink transmission history retained on the ground for operational accountability and post-event analysis, mitigating risks before they escalate.
   
   
6. Driving Business Impact & Standardizing Institutional Knowledge:
   
   Finally, WNI will discuss the tangible business impact of adopting AI-driven workflows. You will learn how shifting from manual interpretation to validated decision support directly translates into reduced disruption exposure, fewer unnecessary fuel buffers, and more consistent, high-quality decisions across the entire team, regardless of who is on shift, effectively bridging the knowledge gap left by retiring experts.  Specifically:

• SkyAviators’ 40% reduction in data collection time frees dispatchers to focus on decision-making rather than data-gathering, improving both operational speed and the quality of judgment under pressure.
• Weather Expert Presets and the Weather Overview briefing platform bridge the knowledge gap left by retiring experts, standardizing institutional meteorological knowledge across the organization.
• Every dispatcher, from the most experienced to the newest team member, operates with the same validated, WNI-quality intelligence that powers one of the world’s most trusted aviation weather services.

For CDPLC, you will see how dispatchers can follow the pilot’s communication with ATC via uplink – downlink to increase awareness.
  
  You will also see the power of the situational awareness design, and how complex data is easily visualized, rationalized, and prioritized in one App, so dispatchers are managing more, with less stress. You will see how dispatchers can quickly identify the set of flights that require immediate attention, via the alert visualization and alert panels, and how dispatchers can easily filter information to a customized view for optimum efficiency, for example a dashboard showing pre-departure flights or those flights en-route, filtered by alert type and severity, and more.
  
  As you will see, instead of monitoring all flights manually, dispatchers only receive alerts for deviations that require intervention. For example, if a flight deviates from its optimal fuel consumption plan, the system alerts the dispatcher, who can then suggest adjustments (altitude change, speed modification, etc.). Or if there is a significant weather event detected ahead on the flight’s route, the dispatcher will receive an alert and can suggest a deviation.
  
  
• SITA Mission Watch Demo 2: New Functionalities – FAA TMI, Predictive Data, Mobile App, more:
  Next the SITA team will showcase some new features including global traffic displays, FAA TMI, predictive data, high-resolution weather, and web and mobile versions. You will see how the App now provides global traffic and FAA TMI advisories, thus allowing all airlines flying in and out of FAA airspace to best comply with FAA regulations. With this data integrated, dispatchers are able to react quickly on replanning flights to align with different FAA airspace restrictions.
  
  You will see how the solution leverages advanced ML to provide more accurate predictions regarding landing times and taxi-in times; and new advances to the high-resolution weather data down to 1km grid resolution with hourly updates. Finally, you will see the new web and mobile versions which provide simpler installations and allow access from anywhere. These also unlock the possibility of integrating FPO solutions to be synched with the pilot’s App.
  
  
• SITA Mission Watch Demo 3: The Future of Flight Path Optimization (FPO) – Pilot-Dispatch Collaboration:
  Lastly you will see how SITA Mission Watch is shaping the future of Flight Path Optimization.  Airlines are increasingly demanding streamlined solutions allowing the dispatch tool to collaborate with the pilot tool, to optimize the flight path during cruising stage.  Dispatchers should be able to visualize the flight optimization recommendations, and also collaborate with the pilot via backend workflow integration.  As you will see the App allows for real-time collaboration between dispatchers and pilots, in one system, for flight trajectory adjustments, which can also include dynamic routing and fuel efficiency collaboration.

About the Aircraft IT Webinar Series:

Every 2 weeks the Aircraft IT website hosts a different live Webinar, each Webinar hosted by a different IT Vendor. These sessions represent the perfect opportunity to learn about a software solution in a more informal manner and to quickly gain an in-depth knowledge of all the major systems on the market, all from the comfort of your own office or home with no sales pressure.

The IT vendor provides a live software demonstration/masterclass of their solution and explains how it can benefit airlines, MROs, Operators, OEMs, Leasing Companies. Once logged on, online delegates can ask questions via the interactive sections of the Webinar or simply sit back and watch and listen to the demonstration. There are two sessions during the day, each differently times to accommodate all time zones.

Each Webinar session is recorded, and an On-Demand version is then posted back to the Aircraft IT website a few days after the live session to allow you to view the content again with your colleagues. The library of On-Demand Webinar recordings provides an invaluable reference source of Flight Operations software demonstrations from the World’s leading Flight Operations IT Vendors.
