A key factor in any successful flight operation is timely and accurate information flow between aircraft, company headquarters, base operators and end users.

For the aircraft contacting a ground support facility to pass on its information, the only real issue is that the facility being used must be staffed with competent operators that have the technical capability to receive and deliver this information to the proper recipient.

Communications from the ground, be it from the company, chartered, ground handler, etc., is further complicated by the fact that an aircraft in the air is moving from one communications network to another and the logistics of making contact can, and will, change minute by minute. In order to deliver any communication to an aircraft in the air, or on the ground, you first have to know where the aircraft is, then have the technical skill and equipment to pass on the information.

In addition to providing 24 hour flight watch services, Skyplan also maintains a world-wide network of government and commercial airborne communications providers and which gives us the capability to contact any aircraft, virtually anywhere on the planet, and at any time.
