TAP Air Portugal Increases Efficiency with NAVBLUE’s Integrated EFB Environment


Portugal’s flag carrier, TAP Air Portugal, has chosen NAVBLUE’s Mission+ FLIGHT and Flysmart+ solutions, which will support their evolving Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) requirements for a more integrated and connected digital Flight Operations environment TAP Air Portugal, that has been using NAVBLUE solutions since 2020, will now increase operational efficiency with Mission+ FLIGHT, the integrated electronic flight folder module of Mission+, NAVBLUE’s Electronic Flight Assistant, while reducing crew workload for pre-flight, in-flight and post-flight performance computations with Flysmart+.

Mission+ FLIGHT is the integrated electronic flight folder module for mission management that provides briefing packages, flight follow-up and reporting capabilities to pilots. The solution manages the data workflow between the Integrated Operations Centre (IOC) systems and the crew’s application on the flight deck. It also allows to monitor and archive all the exchanged mission data such as flight acceptance and post flight reports. Mission+ Flight increases efficiency reducing manual entries and risk of errors and enhances pilot’s situational awareness while reducing their workload. Before and during flight, the solution provides briefing packages automatically on pilots’, operations team’s and dispatchers’ tablets.

It is also compatible with FOMAX Aircraft Interface Device, a Flight Operations & Maintenance
Exchanger currently equipped across parts of TAP’s fleet, that allows automatic retrieval of mission
critical information overhead at each waypoint in the Mission+ FLIGHT Navlog.
Flysmart+, NAVBLUE’s aircraft performance and Weight & Balance calculation tool, is integrated
with Mission+ FLIGHT:
● Launch buttons for all modules directly from Mission+ FLIGHT;
● Data communications between both solutions, allowing automatic retrieval of information
from Mission+ FLIGHT to Flysmart+, such as departure and arrival airports, aircraft type,
or registration number.
