Japan Airlines to expand use of Boeing software

August 18, 2011

Boeing Co. said Thursday that Japan Airlines will expand its use of the aerospace company’s Airplane Health Management software system to its future Boeing 787 fleet.

Financial terms were not disclosed.

The system monitors, collects and analyzes airplane data to give customers real-time, in-flight maintenance information that would allow them to immediately begin maintenance work upon landing, Boeing said.

Japan Airlines has 35 of the 787 aircraft on order, and has licensed the system for those airplanes in addition to its existing fleet of 46 Boeing 777 aircraft, Boeing said.
