ARINC and IATA Offer RVSM Help In South America And Caribbean

Better, Faster Cheaper, Right?

ARINC Incorporated has teamed with the International Air Transport Association (IATA) to help aircraft operators in the Caribbean and South American flight region (CARSAM) achieve the compliance they will need for operation in RVSM (Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum) airspace.

IATA will help commercial and business aircraft operators obtain aircraft modifications and approvals, and ARINC will provide a broad range of aircraft services, along with convenient local RVSM monitoring from airports in the region, using new technology.

RVSM airspace, already used in Europe, saves time and fuel by permitting optimal flight paths in congested areas. North America will implement RVSM in January, 2005, and IATA has taken a leadership role in assisting the CARSAM Regional Monitoring Authority, CARSAMA, with implementation to meet the same schedule.

"IATA is proud to take a leadership role in RVSM implementation in the CARSAM region, and is very pleased to partner with ARINC, a company with extensive experience in RVSM," stated Peter Cerda, IATA's Regional Director of Safety, Operations & Infrastructure. "The combined talents of IATA and ARINC will provide customers with the highest quality RVSM information, as well as efficient, professional service."

ARINC will perform RVSM modifications either at customer locations in the CARSAM region, or at its FAA/JAA-certified repair station in Colorado Springs, Colorado. For -MORE-CARSAM aircraft that are registered in the U.S., ARINC can also prepare the RVSM approval applications required by the FAA, supporting airworthiness of the aircraft, training of flight and maintenance crews, and correct RVSM maintenance practices.

"This is another step in our mission to support the aviation community with timely implementation of RVSM," stated Dave Poltorak, ARINC Vice President of Business Aviation Services. "ARINC brings to this program more than 7 years of experience in RVSM monitoring and aircraft systems integration. Our goal is to be the first place the customer turns for assistance-a complete source of RVSM knowledge and capability."

ARINC now offers same-day/next-day scheduling of RVSM monitoring flights from 8 North American locations: San Francisco (SAN), Oklahoma City (OKC), Colorado Springs (COS), Toronto (YYZ), Baltimore and Washington (BWI/IAD), Virginia (SHD), and Miami (MIA). Many ARINC flight specialists are bilingual in Spanish and English for better service to customers from the CARSAM region.
