10 Tanker Equips Fleet with SkyTrac Systems’ Flight Data Monitoring Solution

SkyTrac Systems announces that 10 Tanker Air Carrier has chosen to utilize the company’s flight data monitoring solution in its fleet of aerial firefighting DC-10 jets.

SkyWeb, SkyTrac’s web-based aircraft mapping and management program, combined with the ISAT-200A transceiver, supports aerial firefighting operations by making flight data, such as aircraft position, speed and exceedances, as well as operational load monitoring capabilities and drop placement available in real-time. The critical flight tracking data is transmitted to operations centers that coordinate the firefighting efforts on the ground and in the air.

SkyTrac’s High Resolution Data feature can be activated to provide high fidelity 1-second position updates for extreme accuracy in aircraft position. This gives operators access to enhanced fleet situational awareness and enables them to make quick decisions that can have a positive impact on the safety and effectiveness of aircrews and ground crews.
