In an effort to reduce paper in the cockpit, low-fare carrier easyJet has taken another step to cut down on waste and weight by digitising its Aircraft Technical logs.
The new system, provided by Ultramain, will be rolled out across its 346-strong Airbus A320 fleet in 2025. The new e-logs will, according to the carrier, save over 300,000 sheets of paper from being used and boost efficiency for its flight crew, cabin crew, and engineering teams.
David Morgan, Chief Operating Officer at easyJet, said: “Rolling out Ultramain’s state-of-the-art technology across our fleet of aircraft will not only improve the reporting processes for our crew and engineering teams but will also see fewer delays on the ground, which will help further enhance the travel experience for our customers.”
The new e-techlog system will help streamline the maintenance reporting process for flight crew, cabin crew and engineering – enabling easyJet to increase line maintenance productivity in the process.
Mark McCausland, President and CEO of Ultramain Systems, added: “We are thrilled to welcome easyJet as our newest ULTRAMAIN ELB partner and user. By embracing a paperless process for their electronic technical and cabin logbook, easyJet has demonstrated a dedication to excellence and innovation.
“Together, we are paving the way towards a more efficient future in aviation. We are excited to support easyJet as they transition to a more efficient, paperless operation.”
