AVIATAR’s Technical Logbook enables the completion of flight logbook input and maintenance pre, during flight, and upon arrival as it is seamlessly integrated in Vietjet’s maintenance and engineering system. Furthermore, the application’s advanced features and enhanced back-end capabilities will lead to decreased turnaround times while increasing fleet’s technical reliability and operational safety.
