Jet asks staff to extract key data before system blackout on June 1

TIL Desk/Business/Tokyo/ In deepening uncertainty about its revival, grounded Jet Airways has asked its engineering staff to extract all aircraft maintenance data from systems as IBM-supported servers would not be available from June 1.

The airline has written to its engineering staff that effective June 1, 2019 both Jet Airways and JetLite AMOS Production Environment (a software package provided by a Swiss company for managing aircraft data) will not be available for use.

“This is due to non-availability of servers and vendor IBM’s support only until May 31, 2019,” a company mail to staffers said. It further advised them to extract all the required reports and information out of Jet Airways and JetLite AMOS production Environment “as necessary at the earliest.”

According to Swiss Aviation Software Ltd, AMOS is a comprehensive, fully-integrated software package that successfully manages the maintenance, engineering and logistics requirements of modern airlines and MRO providers by fulfilling demanding airworthiness standards.
