Empire Aviation Group is releasing a flight information management app for its business jet owners, to complement the company's aircraft management services. The app was developed in partnership with Skytech Solutions and allows aircraft owners to check the status of their aircraft and obtain flight, route and destination information from a smart device. EAG has around 23 business jets under management for owners across the Middle East, Africa and India.

The web and mobile based application enables owners to book their aircraft for private use. It calculates routes with flight timings, provides destination and weather information, and allows the user to calendar-view booking schedules. It is complete with alerts and notifications, and is data-secured for owners.

EAG executive director Paras Dhamecha is pleased with the innovation: “EAG and Skytech have been working together to bring new information solutions for aircraft owners, and we are pleased to be one of the company's first aviation customers in the Middle East. Skytech is developing an array of e-services and m-services to connect our owners to key information about aircraft availability, destinations, flight planning and support. This fits well into our aircraft management model.”
