  • Changes to the aircraft age calculation

  • Accident information on aircraft profiles

    Aircraft accident information was included as part of the new PDF aircraft profiles released earlier this week, and today’s release will bring the same data to our web based aircraft profiles. Rather than being a single line event within the existing aircraft history table, accident data resides within its own dedicated table, located directly below the history table on the ‘A/C History’ tab.Continue reading

  • PDF Aircraft Profiles

    We’re pleased to announce the release of a new version of our aircraft profiles. This new version, available in PDF format, has been designed specifically for download\print. For each Commercial aircraft (other market groups to follow) you will now be able to download a version of the profiles not just from the aircraft profile pages themselves, but also directly from the search result pages.Continue reading

  • Better aircraft profile search

    In this release we are very pleased to announce an update to the Quick Profile Search. The old version of this search allowed you to search for an aircraft via MSN or registration (old, current and future). We had a lot of feedback from users stating that after entering an MSN or registration they still had to scroll through multiple results to find the specific aircraft they were searching for. In this update you can now append your MSN/Reg search with the manufacturer or type in order to further filter your results. This will typically return only a single aircraft. View the animations below to see the new feature in action.Continue reading

  • Updates over the Christmas period

    From next week (WC 23rd) the 25 members of the UK based data team will be taking a well earned break to enjoy the festive period.

    During this time there will be limited fleet data updates, but rest assured, we will be back in early January to catch up with all the changes.

    We wish all Cirium customers a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year!

    Best Wishes

  • The way we calculate the age of an aircraft is going to change

    Due to the recent change to the definiton of Build Date, we are changing our definition of age.

    Currently

    Age is calculated as the duration since the date of the aircraft’s first flight, if we have no recorded first flight, then we use the delivery date.

    New

    Age will be calculated as the duration since the Build Date. Build Date is taken as the delivery date, unless the aircraft’s first flight was more than 12 months prior to delivery date, in this scenario Build Date is taken as the first flight date.

    These changes will take effect from 20th January 2020.

    For more information on how we determine the Build Date, please see the article on the Cirium Thought Cloud.
