NBAA: Bombardier launches Smart Link service

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.
