Aviation airworthiness enhanced with innovative software from Air Worthy

MILAN - Jan. 8, 2025 - PRLog -- The critical job of monitoring aircraft airworthiness has been strengthened with the launch of innovative computer software, created by Italian-based Continuing Airworthiness Management Organisation (CAMO), Air Worthy.

Following over 18 months of programming, development and testing, AWAS (Air Worthy Aircraft Software) has gone live with Air Worthy customer, Challenge Air Cargo.

Whilst there are existing CAMO applications in the market, Air Worthy decided to build its own software, with the support of a software specialist in Milan. Unique to the aviation sector, AWAS can be customised to specific operational needs, as well as delivering an improved level of flexibility and usability across the CAMO process.

Hosted in the cloud with no server requirement, AWAS provides a more secure, intuitive user interface, which enables workflow and project progress to be monitored in real time by Air Worthy's CAMO team. A new portal also facilitates customer access, so that all stakeholders can view an aircraft's live documentation and compliance status.

The CAMO designation, also referred to as Part-M, is a mandatory part of EASA's Implementing Rules EU 1321/2014 - Continuing Airworthiness, which ensures that all aircraft operating within the jurisdiction of a National Aviation Authority (NAA)  are maintained to the highest level of safety and compliant with the necessary aviation safety regulations.

The role of a CAMO is highly complex. It requires many disciplines, all focused on aircraft safety, including: liaison with relevant authorities on behalf of an aircraft owner/lessor; finding solutions to technical issues; STC (Supplemental Type Certificate) modification, updating of aircraft technical manuals; performing  physical inspections and safeguarding records. Typically, a CAMO representative from Air Worthy is permanently based on-site during an aircraft's heavy maintenance check, in order to oversee the process and ensure the AMP (Aircraft Maintenance Programme) schedule is kept on track.

Commenting on the launch of AWAS, Air Worthy's co-founder and Continuing Airworthiness Manager, Lucia Soffientini, said:

"By providing comprehensive airworthiness consultancy, Air Worthy offers a total solution for aircraft owners and operators. The launch of AWAS is an evolution of Air Worthy's mission to  uphold aircraft safety and deliver asset value throughout the service life of an aircraft and it will bring many benefits to the CAMO process.  In addition, the market for P2F conversions is growing, so our new software will help us to manage this critical process more seamlessly."
