Enhancing aviation safety

Operational safety starts with understanding the root causes of accidents and incidents. Black Boxes and Quick Access Recorders (QAR) have long been critical in improving aviation safety, but retrieving this data can be challenging and time-consuming, especially in remote locations. The CGI VirtualFlightRecorder simplifies this by offering a secure, real-time solution for continuous flight data monitoring, aligned with the Global Aeronautic Distress and Safety System (GADSS).
