GPA FAQ

What data source types do Jet-Care process?

There are 5 primary data sources for engine trend data:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Air-Sync - post flight data transmission via cellular connection to Air-Sync server, with engine data transferred to Jet-Care via FTP.
  5. 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.
