surpassed one million flights onboard customer aircraft.
Bill Tempany, CEO of FLYHT said: "The steady growth of flights
is exciting. The value received by our customers using AFIRS
continues to grow as we add services to our existing applications.
FLYHT's focus for the coming years will be to increase the
applications available to our customers and the value we can bring
to them on each and every flight."
Customer feedback highlights the value AFIRS provides.
"FIRST [Fuel Initiative Reporting System Tracker] is a key
element to any fuel conservation initiative, it is the big "M"
within the PEMC framework - Plan, Execute, Measure, Correct. And
the system does it accurately and timely, always"
"FLYHT knowledge and flexibility to accommodate specific
requirements is remarkable and makes the AFIRS and FIRST solutions
a "must have" solution for the aviation companies engaged to be the
