Case Study - Pascan Aviation/AvTech, Qc, Canada

 

Pascan Aviation

Pascan is a Quebec airline company founded in 1999. The company operates within Canada, and more precisely in Quebec, Labrador and Ontario.

Background

To increase its team’s safety, Pascan was looking to upgrade its equipment so that its operators could work effectively with the refueler truck. The company’s tankers were previously equipped with LCD displays. Despite this technology, which is designed to be visible from a distance, the operators were struggling to do their jobs. Unfortunately, operators were not able to read the LCD display due to the sun’s glare or a lack of light.

“It’s a tool we need in 2017, there is no reason why tankers shouldn’t be equipped with LED displays like the Eagleview” - Jason Côté, Ground Supervisor

Our proposed solution

Replace one LCD tanker display with an Eagleview LED display

Objectives

• Reduce back and forth between the aircraft and the register

  • Prevent having to use a second operator (checker)

  • Increase delivery efficiency

  • Increase precision of quantity delivered

Confirmed results

• No reflection, even in direct sunlight!

• Speeds up refuelling

  • The additional visual support allows operators to focus on other tasks

• Linemen prefer using tankers equipped with an Eagleview LED display

• There is a significant difference between LCD displays and the EAGLEVIEW display.

Following the project

Following the trial’s positive results, Pascan confirmed that it will equip all its tankers with Eagleview displays.

“I’d put them on all the trucks!” - Michel Amaral, Ground Operator
