GE Aerospace announced a significant new Safety Insight contract with South Korea’s leading global airline Korean Air. The deal will see the airline use GE Aerospace’s Flight Data Monitoring system across the company.
Safety Insight will empower Korean Air and its leading low-cost carrier, Jin Air, to enhance safety protocols and operational effectiveness through advanced analytics, automation, and high-speed processing of big data with high fidelity and quality. GE Aerospace’s Event Measurement System (EMS) and Flight Analytics solutions will further enable the airline to refine operational practices, manage data flow across its operations, and process thousands of flights in minutes—a task that previously took up to a half day to complete.
As Korean Air expands the use of its Full Flight Data for diagnostics, operational analysis, and improved flight training, GE Aerospace’s Aviation Insight Portal will provide intuitive visibility and understanding of fleet status, data availability and simplified data sharing across the company to enable high value activities critical to its operational safety, efficiency and reliability.
“By partnering with GE Aerospace, we are confident that our flight operations are equipped with top-tier software solutions capable of performing at a large scale,” said Do Kun Kim, Vice President and Head of Corporate Aviation Security Strategy, Korean Air. “Their alignment with our growth objectives and shared commitment to safety and excellence made them a natural partner.”
“For over half a century, Korean Air has set the highest standard for excellence in global aviation. We are proud that our Safety Insight solutions will enable Korean Air to leverage their flight data to achieve even greater safety and operational performance,” said Andrew Coleman, General Manager, GE Aerospace, Software as a Service.
