AVTECH today announces a new partnership agreement with the Met Office (UK) ensuring world leading aviation weather forecasts.

The Met Office has been at the forefront of global weather and climate science for 160 years. ”We combine the latest science with ground breaking advances in technology and local understanding to deliver operational advantage to all sectors of the aviation industry - airlines, airports, air traffic control and management, ground handling, airport construction and maintenance. Our work helps the industry increase safety and achieve operational efficiencies and cost savings” says Jonathan Dutton, Met Office Business Manager.

As part of this partnership AVTECH has received a Superior Weather Forecast Quality Assurance from the Met Office. This ensures that our Aventus NowCast product line customers are getting the best available aviation weather forecasts existing in the world today.

Premium weather from the Met Office will further increase the value for airline users of the Aventus NowCast service as it increases the accuracy of the data uplinked to the aircraft.

Accordingly, the Met Office will be AVTECH’s first choice weather forecast supplier for the benefit of all AVTECH’s present and future customers.

Additionally, AVTECH and the Met Office will engage in joint marketing activities to further promote the enhanced Aventus NowCast product offering.

“It is with great satisfaction we have reached this long term agreement with the Met Office. In the near future we will also see a number of exciting product enhancements springing from this partnership” says Christer Fehrling, CEO AVTECH.
