AI Drone Inspections
JetAviation.com
From our roots in Swiss precision, to our commitment to the latest industry innovations, we are dedicated to ensuring that you and your aircraft are always in safe hands. Jet Aviation utilizes automated drone and AI-enabled technology to enhance aircraft inspection workflows across MRO operations. The technology supports and augments maintenance processes by providing enhanced visual data and trend comparison capabilities. Applications include lightning strike inspections, General Visual Inspections (GVIs), regulatory marking inspections, and paint quality checks. Our exclusive pre-dispatch cosmetic survey service offers a sophisticated 3D digital mockup of your aircraft, including six-month access via cloud-platform to all images captured by the drone. By capturing detailed records of the aircraft, the technology can enhance the accuracy of existing services such as Pre‑Purchase Inspections (PPIs), while offering potential for new services centered around predictive maintenance.
