Heli Malongo
,For almost a decade, Air Maestro has been an integral part of Heli Malongo’s aviation operation in Angola. We have used it extensively for flight and duty management as well as for our safety (SMS) system, both on the fixed wing and rotary wing sides.
We are proud to have been one of the first OGP operators in the region to have moved into an almost entirely paperless environment and brought all departments into the online space. The support from the Avinet team has been outstanding from day one and the system has continued to evolve and grow with our needs.
The flexibility and adaptability of the system has been one of it’s strongest features in a sector which has been constantly challenged in recent times to remain both cost effective and safety oriented.
Sarah Smith
Starlite Aviation Operations
,We chose Air Maestro to replace our previous Aviation Management System, a system we tried to development on our own which came with great difficulty and cost.
Air Maestro gave us the most complete solution for our Flight Operations Department. Air Maestro has many different modules to suit your needs. We have found great value in the Timesheets Module, this manages Flight and Duty on a real-time basis which has helped improve our Safety Management Systems for e.g. when duty times are exceeded, our management team is notified immediately making problem-solving a lot more efficient.
Another module on Air Maestro that has proved to be of great benefit is the Scheduling Module. Our Base-Coordinators make use of this module to schedule crew on base. When scheduling crew it notifies Base-Co of any recency or flight and duty exceedances which again has improved our overall Safety Culture.
The helpdesk is always patient and willing to help with our queries. Thank you Air Maestro Team.
