FlightEdgePDA: Automated Post-Flight Data Analysis

Know What Passed. Know What Didn't.

FlightEdgePDA checks flight test recordings against your requirements and shows what passed, what failed, and what the data could not evaluate. Nothing leaves your network.

Why It Matters

Flight Test Produces Data Faster Than Teams Can Verify It

Manual post-flight analysis costs schedule, and it leaves evidence that is hard to defend at review.

  • Faster Turnaround

    TodayEvery flight is checked by hand, one requirement at a time, and the queue grows with each software release.

    With FlightEdgePDASubmit one recording or a whole folder of them, and the analysis runs unattended.

  • Repeatable Results

    TodayResults depend on who ran the analysis and how much time they had.

    With FlightEdgePDAThe same recording, interface definitions, requirements, and settings produce the same verdicts, no matter who runs the analysis.

  • Visible Gaps

    TodayGaps in coverage are easy to miss and hard to prove.

    With FlightEdgePDARequirements the data could not exercise are reported apart from passes and failures, so open items stay visible.

  • Engineers Back on Engineering

    TodayVisualization tools, spreadsheets, and one-off scripts each hold part of the answer.

    With FlightEdgePDAThe tool does the line-by-line checking. Your engineers work the failures and the open items.

How It Works

Recording In. Results Out.

  1. Ingest

    Loads standard IRIG 106 Chapter 10 flight test recordings, including MIL-STD-1553 bus traffic and avionics Ethernet.

  2. Interpret

    Reads the data through your program's own interface definitions, so values appear in engineering units, under the parameter names your engineers already use.

  3. Evaluate

    Checks recorded behavior against your requirements and gives each one a result: passed, failed, or could not be evaluated from the data.

  4. Report

    Produces review-ready PDF and Word reports with example evidence for each failure, plus spreadsheet exports.

Built for Secure Environments

Your Data Never Leaves Your Network

  • Fully On-Premises

    Runs entirely on your hardware, inside your enclave. No cloud services and no internet connection required.

  • Air-Gap Ready

    Delivered as a self-contained installation package built for disconnected networks.

  • Controlled Access

    Role-based permissions, with optional integration with your enterprise directory.

  • Protected and Audited

    Encryption at rest for decoded flight data and video, audit logging, and configurable handling markings on screens and reports.

All analysis, including machine learning, runs locally. Nothing is sent to an outside service.

Capabilities

More Than Pass and Fail

  • What-If, Without Re-Flying

    Re-runs a recorded flight against adjusted limits or what-if scenarios, without flying it again.

    Patent Pending
  • Requirement Import

    Turns your existing system and subsystem requirement documents into proposed checks. An engineer reviews and approves each one before anything is graded.

  • Requirement Closure Tracking

    Tracks each requirement toward closure across flights, with engineer approval and an exportable evidence workbook.

    Patent Pending
  • Campaign Insight

    Compares results across flights to show how a test campaign is trending.

  • Change Impact

    Shows what changed between versions of your interface definitions and which requirements are affected.

  • Avionics Bus Health

    Assesses MIL-STD-1553 and avionics Ethernet health on every flight and highlights communication problems for engineering review.

    Patent Pending
  • Anomaly Detection

    Machine learning flags unusual patterns beyond what the written rules check, for engineers to review.

Emerging Capabilities

Beyond Verification What's Coming Next

Capabilities in active development. Ask us for their current status in a briefing.

  • Cockpit Display Verification

    Cross-checks what the cockpit displays showed against what the data bus reported. Demonstrated on synthetic display video; evaluation on recorded flight video comes next.

    EmergingPatent Pending
  • Test-Card Matching

    Lines up flight data with the test points on your test cards, so results can be reviewed test point by test point.

    EmergingPatent Pending
  • Plain-Language Questions

    Ask questions about a flight in plain English and get answers drawn from the decoded data, from a language model that runs on your own network.
