There are 5 primary data sources for engine trend data:
- Manual Data - collected by the pilot/crew from cockpit instrumentation readings and transferred to trend sheets or input into iECHO GPA, the Jet-Care iPad app, and then forwarded to us via email, fax or internet message.
- Electronic Data - downloaded by engineers/pilots in various file types from onboard computers. Typically Maintenance Data Computers, Engine Electronic Control Computers (e.g. MDC, FADEC, EEC, DEEC, etc) or trend recording systems with cockpit instrumentation systems creating files for download, such as Avidyne, Electronics International, Garmin and Shadin.
- ACARS - real time data transmitted directly from the aircraft by automated systems using on-board avionic equipment and via HF radio links and Satcom to ground stations, with engine data forwarded to Jet-Care.
- Air-Sync - post flight data transmission via cellular connection to Air-Sync server, with engine data transferred to Jet-Care via FTP.
- Flight Data Recorder - data, once downloaded, must be processed via a Flight Data Management company (FDM) to extract the GPA related data which is forwarded to Jet-Care.
If we trend your engine type, it is highly likely we can process and report using your data files. However, we will check and sample your data if it is a new type and confirm that we can process and evaluate your data before confirming enrolment.
If we do not currently trend your engine type Jet-Care will work with you to provide a service as quickly as possible. Please contact us to discuss your needs and for a quotation.

Supplying Engine Performance Data
It is not mandatory to record and forward trend performance data using both methods for Jet-Care GPA to provide a high quality service. However, Jet-Care does recommend that an enhanced trending service is provided when data is provided electronically and manually (cockpit recording). Click this link to consider the advantages.
If data is captured electronically, consider downloading more frequently to have the take-off data evaluated. If you have no electronic capture consider targeting specific flights to ensure recordings are taken. More than one recording can be taken in a single flight. We recommend the recordings are normally 30 minutes apart or at a different flight level/power setting. Please contact Jet-Care if you have any queries on manual recording.
- Jet-Care routinely process and report engine trend performance data every day of the year.
- Your data will be routinely reported at no more than 24 hours from receipt - 7 days a week.
- If you are aware you have an engine performance issue and need a quick turn time and report (fast track), contact Jet-Care on +44 (0) 1256 701777 to request your data be processed as quickly as possible by our engineers.
