Flightman, originally founded in 2000 under the name Aircraft Management Technologies (AMT), is a global leader in the provision of “Connected Aircraft” solutions to airlines. The Flightman Solution Suite allows airlines to achieve optimised regulatory compliance, total operational efficiency, and enhanced in-cabin passenger service and revenue opportunities by seamlessly connecting and integrating the aircraft within the Enterprise IT infrastructure.

Flightman’s early market engagements were typically in consulting and systems integration projects with global carriers in “Lean Flight” consulting workshops and projects. This led the company to identify a significant opportunity in the Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) software solutions area.

In April 2001, the company launched its first product, the eTechlog – an electronic version of the current paper-based technical log held aboard an aircraft. Following an extensive review of airline feedback and a number of value proposition workshops and focus groups with flight and engineering crews worldwide, the initial product offering has developed and grown in line with airlines’ specific requirements.

The result of the developments to date is Flightman – the complete solution for the connected aircraft; covering business processes, technical documentation, and vendor management thereby enabling pilots, cabin crew, and maintenance to capture and utilise operational information more efficiently and ultimately reduce operational costs.
