GE Aviation has been awarded two contracts from Gulfstream Aerospace to provide Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) technology for the Gulfstream G650 business jet. IVHM will power Gulfstream’s PlaneConnectHTM (health and trend monitoring) system as it continuously manages and analyzes data throughout the flight, logging health information for engines, avionics, power, cabin and other aircraft systems. Wireless connectivity links every aircraft to a ground services network, which will provide a Web-based service delivering a real-time picture of aircraft health.
Both GE Aviation (Booth No. N1833), and Gulfstream are showcasing IVHM capabilities here at the NBAA show. GE is running video that addresses the advances in predictive data analysis and anomaly detection. Meanwhile Gulfstream, at its display, is providing a walk-though demonstration and video of the PlaneConnectHTM process.
