Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) on Wednesday claimed to have launched its indigenous software 'Flight Information & Revenue Management System (FIRMS)' for maintaining the record and billing of all flights using Pakistani airspace. Director General, CAA, Air Marshal Muhammad Yousuf (Retd) praised the efforts of CAA's IT Department for developing and launching the software at a launching ceremony held at CAA Headquarter Karachi.
DG CAA said IT & Communications Department of CAA was regarded as one of the best in the current aviation industries, working on the same guidelines outlined by the 'International Aviation Authority'. DG CAA said "the development of aviation automated systems like 'FIRMS' and 'AMS' by CAA's own IT Department 'independently' proves our team's capabilities and the fact that CAA employees are completely motivated with a strong ambition to move forward."
"With the right motivation and direction for utilising our own resources, we can compete with any other country in the aviation sector," he added. With the launching of FIRMS software, the billing of all flights using Pakistani airspace has been converted to a fully automated system, which has also been linked with the Air Transport & Management System.
CAA's IT Department has also designed its second software 'Airworthiness Management System (AMS)'. Implementation of 'AMS' will make the Airworthiness Certificate, Inspection and Monitoring procedures online, helping engineers make online entries while reporting from any airport. All Directors and Managers of CAA were also present on this occasion.-PR
