Poste Air Cargo, an Italian cargo airline headquartered in Rome, and a wholly owned subsidiary of Poste Italiane, has decided to implement Jeppesen Concert and the Boeing Alertness Model (BAM). Poste Air Cargo currently operates six aircrafts in full cargo configuration, including five Boeing 737s, from its hub at Brescia Airport.
Air cargo, such as mail and parcels, is often transported during off-peak hours overnight - meaning it may result in challenging working patterns for the pilots. According to Flight Operations and Safety Management Divisions at Poste Air Cargo, Jeppesen Concert will provide them with the capability to pin-point their fatigue risk hotspots and closely follow the development over time, throughout their crew management process. Poste Air Cargo considers BAM a very capable fatigue model and the company intends to draw as much insight as possible from it, keeping their risk profile well below any concerning levels.
Eduardo Dobashi Furuzato, Scheduling Safety Expert at Jeppesen, comments: "We are extremely pleased to welcome Poste Air Cargo onboard, joining our large family of operators now relying on Jeppesen FRM solutions for their FRM activities. We are excited to get going and confident we have many years of fruitful collaboration ahead of us. Welcome Poste Air Cargo!"
