Just a quick message to let you know that the UK based Data Teams will be taking a well-earned break over the Christmas period. From Monday 21st December through to Monday 4th January 2021 there will be minimal data updates across our Fleets, MRO, and Interiors datasets.

Despite the backdrop of COVID, it has been our busiest year ever for updates on the commercial, business aviation, helicopter, and military fleets:

• We have created an additional 159,986 events in the Aircraft Histories
• We have updated 234,416 aircraft in the database
• We have added an additional 9,824 aircraft to the database

For the MRO and cabin interior data:

• We have added 1000 MRO contracts
• We have added 2500 more cabin interior records (passenger seating, IFE, Internet).

We wish all Cirium customers a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, and rest assured the team will be back raring to go in the new year.

Customers will need to be mindful of the above change when using any future fleet date in Analyzer as the aircraft will now still show in storage in the coming years.

During the peak period of commercial aircraft being placed into storage as a result of COVID-19 (March), we applied a “default” return to service of 30 September 2020. At that time, it was very much unknown what the lasting impact would be of the pandemic, but, from observing the fleet activities of the last few months, we have now started to review any remaining scheduled return to service dates. In reviewing the scheduled return dates until the end of the year, we have applied the following logic: Continue reading “”

As the Covid-19 Pandemic continues to impact the Aviation industry and in particular commercial passenger services we are making some further adjustments to how we track the ongoing usage of aircraft. Continue reading “”
