Performance Calculation Software Purchase in Indonesia Airlines

Deskripsi

The purpose of this study was to analyze procedures for EFB use in airlines in Indonesia and the benefits obtained from the use of the EFB. It is an electronic device inside the cockpit of an aircraft used by pilots to carry out analysis and technical calculations during flight. Performance calculation is a process of aircraft technical calculation to determine the limits of each flight from takeoff to landing. For airlines in Indonesia, EFB is still an aircraft technology that is not too familiar, both from the airline side and the government as a regulator. However, there are already many in this country that run this program.

The method used to analyze the use of EFB is to conduct a survey of the pilots who have run this program, both before implementation and after the program is running. In addition, other benefits such as the efficiency value obtained from this program will be seen and compared to before the program was implemented.

In the first part of the paper, the concept of efficiency is determined and requirements of flight operations planning procedures are investigated with literature review. In the second part, electronic flight bag is defined with the properties, types, services, and usage conditions. In the last part, the efficiency of EFB usage is estimated with the data which is collected by survey method and descriptive analysis. The efficiency produced from EFB use is also taken into account. The research was completed with Garuda Indonesia as an airlines companies in Indonesia. In this research, it will be seen how the use of EFB software can provide benefits from the operational and efficiency aspects that are produced.
