SkyTrac to Provide SatCom and Flight Following to CAE Aviation

February 5, 2010

Kelowna, BC, Canada– SkyTrac is pleased to announce that it was selected by Luxembourg based CAE Aviation to supply SatCom/flight following solutions for CAE’s fleet of Cessna Grand Caravan, Fairchild Merlin III, Turbine Islander, CASA 212-200 & 300, and Skyvan’s.

CAE Aviation operates in remote areas where airspace management, air traffic services, and search and rescue are scarce or even nonexistent. As such, SkyTrac’s systems are crucial to provide management a real time view of its aircraft, no matter the location. Bernard Zeler of CAE commented, “SkyTrac has become an essential component of CAE Aviation’s fleet management. SkyWeb provides invaluable situation awareness of ongoing and past fleet activities through user friendly interfaces.”

Kathleen Wallace, President and CEO of SkyTrac stated, “We are pleased to have been chosen by CAE not only on the basis of our reputation, products and services, but for our software capabilities in SkyWeb and FlightTrac Suite. We are glad to see that CAE finds our sophisticated software features valuable and easy to use in its day to day operations.”
