Unique waiver assures FAA performance
requirements are met; New inspection solution combines approval
services with aerial intelligence to help energy organizations
scale inspection operations
AiRXOS, part of GE Aviation, announces that it has received a
unique and industry-progressive FAA Part 107.35 waiver for multiple
unmanned aircraft operations (Multi-UA). AiRXOS’ Multi-UA waiver
uniquely allows operators to simultaneously fly any type of small
unmanned aircraft at any Part 107 location nationwide, provided
they meet AiRXOS’ FAA-approved checklist of aircraft and location
criteria.
Previous Multi-UA waivers limited the operation to a specific
aircraft type at a specific location. With the advancement of
AiRXOS’ Multi-UA nationwide waiver and pre-approved safety
criteria, customers using AiRXOS services are assured that the
FAA’s performance requirements for safety, pilot human factors, and
equipage are fully met. For Multi-UA operations beyond nationwide
Part 107 locations, additional airspace waivers and authorizations
can be applied for leveraging AiRXOS’ verified criteria. Choosing
AiRXOS provides organizations with more precision and confidence in
submitting for Multi-UA operations.
Introducing Asset Inspection Solution for Energy with Air
MobilityTM Ecosystem partner, Measure
Advanced operations like Multi-UA and Beyond Visual Line of
Sight (BVLOS) are well-suited to inspection operations as they
produce greater efficiency and safety, while enabling faster and
better asset decision making. AiRXOS in partnership with Air
Mobility Ecosystem partner, Measure, a leader in aerial
intelligence, will together provide a new, holistic inspection
solution for the energy industry to meet the demand for advanced,
cost-efficient, safe, and scalable energy inspections.
The new offering connects AIRXOS’ Air Mobility Approval
Services, a lifecycle consulting service that helps organizations
and independent operators conquer the complexity of UV waivers with
Measure’s aerial intelligence solutions. The partnership with
Measure stems from AiRXOS Air Mobility Ecosystem which brings
together innovators in Urban Air Mobility.
Energy inspections are complex, data driven operations that
demand better efficiencies, greater data intelligence, and
integrated solutions. In October 2018, AiRXOS helped Avitas
Systems, a GE venture, develop the processes, procedures and
training enabling Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approval to
fly an unmanned aerial system (UAS) BVLOS in Loving County, Texas,
a 22.5 square mile area owned by the Shell Oil Company. Using
BVLOS, customers have scaled well inspections 5X, with a 40%
savings target over time. Conducting multiple operations
simultaneously increases the geographic footprint of pipeline
monitoring, or flare stack inspections, while extracting more data
in less time.
“The intent of Measure and AiRXOS joining forces is to solve a
customer problem we hear repeatedly – that advanced operations like
BVLOS and Multi-UA operations are critical enablers for scaling
inspection operations,” said Ken Stewart, CEO, AiRXOS. “We’re
excited to welcome Measure as an Air Mobility Ecosystem partner.
Combined, we are an industry powerhouse solution – two
best-of-breed solutions that will help energy organizations truly
realize the full potential from their aerial inspections.”
“The partnership with AiRXOS extends Measure’s long history of
being at the cutting edge of commercial drone operations,” said
Brandon Torres Declet, CEO and Co-Founder of Measure. “By combining
Measure’s proven expertise in drone operations and data analysis
with AiRXOS’ exemplary track record in advanced waiver approvals,
we will be able to provide safe, compliant, and effective solutions
that maximize the benefits of deploying drones across energy
operations.”
