JEPPESEN AND FLYVIE INC. TEAM TO DEVELOP FLIGHT TRAINING RECORDING AND DEBRIEFING SOLUTION

Jeppesen and Flyvie Inc., a developer and manufacturer of video capturing and debriefing systems for the aviation industry, have entered into a strategic relationship to develop and introduce a video flight recording and debriefing solution to enhance the general aviation training experience. The new flight capture solution combined with Jeppesen’s industry-leading aviation training programs and course materials will create a dynamic integrated training solution. The new video capability also will be used as a component of the Jeppesen Skymanager system, which is used by flight training organizations to coordinate and manage student pilot training programs.

“Implementing web-based training solutions developed with Flyvie technology and Jeppesen expertise and integration capabilities will revolutionize the experience for student pilots throughout their flight training program,” said David Wright, Jeppesen senior manager, Training Solutions. “Through this partnership with Flyvie, we have the opportunity to improve the effectiveness of flight training and the methodologies used train the next generation of general aviation pilots.” To develop training solutions that resonate with a new era of student pilots, Jeppesen continues to partner with the aviation community, flight schools and industry associations. Enhanced training capabilities developed through relationships with industry partners such as Flyvie help Jeppesen to maintain and increase critically important student pilot retention rates.

Igal Yaari, COO of Flyvie said, “We are anxious to join forces with Jeppesen. I am happy to say that we share the vision and dedication to soaring above and beyond standardized products and services and I am confident that we can make the pilot training experience more effective and memorable.” Flyvie Inc. systems capture and record video from two cameras, and also GPS data and audio from internal and external aircraft communication. Captured imagery includes the pilot’s view as well as the instrument panel and the pilot’s manipulation of the flight controls. The recorded flight path can then be viewed through Google Earth using Flyvie’s web based applications.

Flight for the Human Spirit and Flyvie onboard an Historical Cross-Country Flight

Hope One and Michael Combs took off last week for 40 flight days across our 50 states. Onboard the Remos LSA with Michael is the Flyvie Pro Recorder, which records the flight using two high resolution video cameras, audio inputs and GPS. The entire flight experience is captured and saved to a personal SD memory card. The Flyvie Pro Viewer offers a feature-rich mashup of the flight experience through a unique web service leveraging technologies such as Google Earth.

“I have experienced Flyvie as a multi-faceted recording device which I can see being used for many different types of flights – from adventurous cross-country flights to casual day trips with family and friends”, said Michael Combs. “This is a once in a lifetime experience and documenting this journey with Flyvie is a perfect match for this mission. It will enable me to review and re-experience my flights and share the excitement of flight with all of our fans who are following and supporting this flight”.

Flyvie’s Erez Freibach stated “I am happy that Flyvie can help in promoting the Hope One story and the excitement of flight to the thousands who are following this historic journey. We look forward to sharing this flight with the Flyvie technology in the coming days. Stay tuned for more news and press releases available on our website at www.flyvie.com/news and at the Flight for the Human Spirit website.
