Commercial Air Transport (CAT) has achieved remarkable improvements in safety over the past 25 years, with accident rates steadily declining. This success is largely due to in-depth analysis of incident causes and advanced safety technologies like crash-protected flight recorders, Safety Management Systems (SMS), Flight Data Monitoring (FDM), and Flight Operations Quality Assurance (FOQA) programs.

Now, we are transforming Business and General Aviation (BGA) safety with the Universal Virtual Flight Data Recorder (UVFDR). This innovative service, developed to meet ICAO’s Global Aeronautic Distress and Safety System (GADSS) standards, ensures Global Aircraft Tracking (GAT), Autonomous Distress Tracking (ADT), and timely recovery of flight data. By leveraging modern mobile satellite services, UVFDR brings sophisticated safety management systems within reach for small businesses and private aircraft owners.

Our UVFDR replicates traditional black box functions in a secure, cloud-based environment, ensuring critical flight data is preserved and accessible for forensic analysis and real-time monitoring. This service integrates seamlessly with existing SMS, FDM, and FOQA systems, offering a cost-effective, scalable solution supported by CGI TrustedFabric's blockchain technology for secure data storage.

Join CGI and partners like SatAuth, Cranfield University, and AWS in pioneering a global UVFDR service, supported by the UK Space Agency and ESA. Enhance safety, efficiency, and reliability in aviation with CGI's UVFDR - where the future of flight data recording meets today’s technological advancements.
