CAE Unveils Flightscape: A New Frontier in Airline Operations

On May 6, 2025, CAE, a leading name in aviation technology, revealed its rebranded airline operations solutions, now known as Flightscape – Powered by CAE. This innovative platform promises to trace a new path in operational intelligence, harnessing data-driven insights to bolster the performance of airlines across the globe.

In today’s fast-paced aviation landscape, operational efficiency is more crucial than ever. Flightscape emerges as a comprehensive solution, designed with airlines' unique challenges in mind. It grants Operations Control Centre (OCC) stakeholders real-time insights aimed at preventing disruptions while optimizing operational performance, even under the most demanding circumstances.

Pascal Grenier, Division President of Flightscape, stated, “Our platform is built for the dynamic environments airlines operate in, equipping them to seize opportunities for performance enhancements while optimizing costs and resources. With continued support, we aim to be more than just a vendor; we aspire to be lifelong partners with our airline clients.”

Over the past three years, CAE has heavily invested in enhancing its operational solutions, ensuring customer focus remains at the core of its developments. This commitment culminated in the creation of a unified, modular platform capable of evolving alongside the needs of the industry. The early implementation of Flightscape in the French airline HOP! serves as a testament to its effectiveness, where the initial operations control solution module was deployed successfully earlier this year.

Eric Chaumette, Chief Information Officer at HOP!, shared his enthusiasm about the collaboration: “We are absolutely thrilled with the results achieved from our first module. The customized setup was not only efficient but also marked a crucial transition from outdated systems to a more advanced, cloud-based solution, which we believe positions us for better future performance.”

The Flightscape platform incorporates a modular design, permitting airlines to choose specific functionalities tailored to their operational needs. These include solutions for operations control, crew and flight management, airport oversight, and in-flight services. A notable feature is the Unified Task Board, which amalgamates data from various OCC systems, establishing a streamlined approach for critical decision-making.

Delivered as a cloud-native Software as a Service (SaaS), Flightscape is noted for its agility, cost-efficiency, and future-proof nature in comparison to traditional proprietary software. With continuous updates, clients can expect the latest features, security improvements, and adherence to regulatory standards, eliminating the necessity for manual upgrades. Furthermore, Flightscape provides seamless integration with existing systems through secure APIs, presenting a low-risk, long-term investment for modern airlines aiming to stay ahead in a competitive market.
