Bombardier launches Smart Link service

Bombardier has launched its Bombardier Smart Link service, which will be progressively rolled out for Learjet, Challenger and Global aircraft.

Smart Link's performance and operations monitoring and reporting services offer Bombardier aircraft operators information and reports that will improve the in-service performance of their aircraft, ensure faster return to service, and ultimately, enable pro-active maintenance. 

"Following extensive testing with our operators, we have developed a compelling data management solution based on some of the most advanced technology the industry has to offer," said Andy Nureddin, Vice President & General Manager, Customer Services, Bombardier Business Aircraft. "Bombardier's Smart Link services will provide customers with a new level of insight and significantly improve the way they manage their maintenance activities. We will also continue to broaden our portfolio of services under Smart Link, working hand-in-hand with operators." 

In-flight fault notification service testing on the Learjet 70 and Learjet 75 aircraft has been performed in collaboration with five operators-covering more than 10 aircraft-over a period of three months and provided significant data to help improve aircraft maintainability and enable a pro-active support model to rectify potential issues. This service now becomes standard on Learjet 70 and Learjet 75 aircraft and is offered as a complimentary upgrade by Bombardier Business Aircraft.
