How it works
All airlines must provide performance data to enable their flight crews to operate aircraft safely, economically and in accordance with their applicable certification rules and operating practices. Basic data has in the past been provided by the aircraft manufacturer in various manuals (AFM, Operations Manual, Performance Engineer's Manual) in hard copy form.
In order to reduce the development effort for the airlines and manufacturers there are clear advantages in standardizing the input/output features of these programs, and associated data formats. With the SCAP Library and SCAP Ops Bundle airlines and aircraft manufacturers alike can optimize the road to ensuring effective and efficient interfacing of aircraft systems and data.
