Emirates chooses UK's Vistair for cloud-based e-manuals plus “touch” read & sign services

Following a selection process spanning two years, Vistair will provide, manage, and update cloud-based e-manuals for the airline’s fleet of Boeing 777s, and Airbus A330s, A340s, and the new A380s.

Vistair’s founding managing director, Ian Herbert, said:  “It is especially pleasing that we have been chosen by such a premier league airline after so rigorous a selection process”.

According to Captain Alan Stealey, Emirate’s vice president of flight operations:  “We spent more than two years with the sole aim of selecting the best solution for the management of our flight operations manuals.  That selection process was very thorough, as Emirates operates to the highest standards as a worldwide airline, and we needed a supplier with the same high standards.

“In a nutshell, we set out to select the world’s best provider of e-manuals for the world’s best airline.

“Vistair was the clear choice, as they have a real understanding of airlines and are constantly maximizing the technology.  They even deliver added value for our aircraft, supplementing Boeing and Airbus’s software tools,” he added.
