Blue Sky Network, the global logistics solution provider for
two-way linking and managing transportation assets via satellite,
today announced that Rotorcraft Leasing Company selected Blue Sky
Network's communication solution for its entire fleet of nearly 100
aircraft. Working seamlessly with SkyRouter, its robust online asset
management portal, the D1000C and ACH1000 provide Rotorcraft with
instant, reliable two-way messaging, information regarding all flight
plans, and the exact locations of all aircraft for improved oil and
gas support operations in the Gulf of Mexico and surrounding areas.
The solution allows any authorized person at Rotorcraft to track and
communicate with aircraft in flight.
By replacing the previous system of manual aircraft tracking, Blue
Sky Network delivers to Rotorcraft a convenient, Iridium Satellite and
GPS-enabled solution. The Blue Sky Network solution reduces
Rotorcraft's reliance on its offshore radio network for manual
location reporting by flight crews. Blue Sky Network also provides a
consistent stream of data from each aircraft which Rotorcraft can use
for a wide range of maintenance monitoring, operational control issues
and billing functions.
"We firmly believe Blue Sky Network is the best choice for our
satellite communication needs, as its solutions are reliable and
surpass competing options," said Gerry Golden, vice president and
general manager for Rotorcraft Leasing Company. "Blue Sky Network
offers superior customer oriented service and a more user friendly
flight tracking and dispatching solution and cockpit interface, which
significantly ease and expand the reach of our operations."
"Being selected by Rotorcraft, the largest private operator in the
Gulf of Mexico, is important validation of our solution and overall
strategy. We know there are other flight tracking options available,
and we are proud to have been chosen as the preferred solution
provider," said Jon Gilbert, president, founder and CEO of Blue Sky
Network. "We look forward to working closely with Rotorcraft to
provide the most efficient and economic fleet operations possible."
The D1000C is a portable, GPS-equipped solution combining an
Iridium transceiver and telemetry data link for near real-time fleet
tracking and position reporting. Paired with the ACH1000 control head,
Rotorcraft also has access to voice and two-way messaging connectivity
between ground and flight crew.
The D1000C and ACH1000 solution, integrates seamlessly with
SkyRouter, an interactive and secure online portal. SkyRouter works
with Google Earth for asset tracking, communications and interactive
updates on all fleets. The in-flight unit transmits reports from the
remote assets directly to the site for review by operations or
dispatch, providing a real-time view of asset locations.
Blue Sky Network will be attending the Dubai Airshow, November
11-15, at booth E104.
