With a turnaround time (TAT) of five days and expedited 24 hour aircraft on ground (AOG) TAT, Flight Data Systems' superior customer service and more than 440 in-house databases covering fixed wing and rotorcraft airframes position it as a leading option for operators seeking compliance and safety.
