SkyPath — Real-Time Turbulence Intelligence
SkyPath is the aviation industry's leading crowdsourced turbulence network. By aggregating accelerometer and GPS data from EFB-equipped aircraft in real time, SkyPath delivers actionable turbulence intelligence to pilots, dispatchers, and operations teams — before the bumps happen.

The Problem
Turbulence costs airlines hundreds of millions of dollars every year — in crew and passenger injuries, unscheduled maintenance, and operational delays. For over three decades, the industry has struggled with Clear Air Turbulence: invisible, unpredictable, and consistently underserved by legacy forecast data. The information available to pilots today is slow, coarse, and uncertain.

How It Works
Every iPad in the cockpit is a sensor. SkyPath runs silently in the background on pilots' EFB tablets, continuously capturing motion data and transmitting it to the cloud. That data is processed and pushed back to every aircraft on the network — in real time. The more airlines fly SkyPath, the sharper the picture gets.

What SkyPath Delivers
Real-time awareness — Pilots receive live turbulence reports from aircraft ahead on the same route, with enough lead time to react. No waiting for a dispatcher call or a forecast update.
Safer routing — Crews can identify and avoid severe turbulence corridors during flight, reducing passenger and crew injury risk and keeping aircraft within structural limits.
Smarter maintenance — Precise G-force exceedance data lets maintenance teams assess actual structural exposure rather than defaulting to precautionary inspections. Significant cost savings on post-event checks.
Fuel efficiency — Better hazard awareness enables more confident route optimization. Less contingency fuel loaded, fewer precautionary deviations, more flyable airspace utilized.
Improved dispatch planning — The turbulence feedback loop is near-instantaneous. Dispatchers and flight planners gain a live, crowd-validated picture of enroute conditions.

Why SkyPath
• Plug-and-play deployment on existing EFB hardware — no new equipment, no installation cost
• Operates passively in the background — zero pilot workload overhead
• Network effect: every flight improves the data for every other flight
• Purpose-built for airline operations, with enterprise integrations for major EFB platforms
