This has been an interesting week for a number of reasons, understanding first hand what real heat is Bahrain has been in to the mid 40s all week with a couple of days above that, trying to work in that heat and the humidity that can go with it.

Challenges for a CAMO
Monday, May 3rd, 2010I have been out this week seeing our software developers and looking at the developments in our website; we started talking about technology and how to use it to support Part M organisations.

I am a firm believer that the technology available today, in mobile devices should be able to assist organisations in overcoming issues such as unavailable aircraft utilisation data. It does not need to be a full-blown electronic tech-log, just the ability to bring the fax machine into the 21st century.
