It provides an integrated solution for managing essential flight documents, real-time weather information, flight routes, and various regulations.
Individual flight information is displayed immediately, so flight crew members no longer need to manually enter routes or flight schedules. They can also intuitively find the information they need. Jin Air expects that this will significantly enhance both the operational efficiency and flight safety of its crew members.
Jin Air plans to further strengthen its investment in safety. Next month, the airline will establish a next-generation flight control system to greatly improve its operational support capabilities. This system will allow complex and extensive flight information to be viewed at a glance on a single screen, eliminating unnecessary redundant tasks and supporting fast and accurate decision-making.
Next year, Jin Air will make a large-scale investment of approximately 22 billion KRW to introduce additional flight training devices, such as simulators. Simulators are training devices that allow for simulated flights in an environment identical to an aircraft cockpit. Pilots can train for various scenarios, such as adverse weather or airport takeoffs and landings, thereby enhancing their emergency response capabilities.
Jin Air has also been actively investing in maintenance. In March, the airline adopted ACT, an Airbus training program. ACT allows trainees to practice everything from simple equipment location checks to maintenance tasks in the event of a malfunction, all within a 3D environment identical to an actual aircraft. In November last year, Jin Air introduced AHM, a platform that provides real-time updates on defects or conditions for the B737-8 aircraft model.
In terms of talent development, Jin Air requires flight crew applicants to have a minimum of 1,000 flight hours, the highest standard in the industry, in order to secure highly experienced personnel. The airline is also fostering outstanding pilot talent through training collaborations with Boeing.
