Through an agreement with the Russian Ministry of Transportation, Jeppesen has added Ramenskoye (UUBW) airport data to bolster its industry-leading NavData flight information database for operators in Russia. Ramenskoye data is available to all operators during the MAKS 2011 International Aviation and Space Salon, and will be available to Russian domestic operators on an ongoing basis after the show. With access to Russian domestic airspace and airport data such as Ramenskoye, Jeppesen, a unit of Boeing Flight Services, provides a complete flight information solution for Russian operators that includes navigation, operations and optimization services to increase operational efficiency.

Jeppesen processing of Russian domestic data helps to enable the transition from paper to electronic charting information for Russian operators. With key data points such as Ramenskoye airport available, a complete Russian flight information solution from Jeppesen includes domestic and international NavData services, JetPlan flight planning, OpsData aircraft performance analysis and paper and digital charting services for operators in Russia.

“Complete and accurate aeronautical information related to Russian domestic airports and airways is critically important and we are pleased to offer new additions such as Ramenskoye airport in our database to provide a complete flight information solution,” said Gregor Schneider, Jeppesen data product manager, Aviation. “The Jeppesen flight information solution increases efficiency and optimizes operations on the ground and in the air, which provides cost saving opportunities for our customers.”

Jeppesen is in the process of adding domestic Russian approach, arrival and departure procedures to the NavData database and Ramenskoye airport charting data has been included with the August 5 NavData revision process. Jeppesen databases contain all Russian airways as well as international and domestic airport and runway data. Aircraft flight management systems are now able to process this data.

Russian domestic airway system and domestic airport information may only be used by operators registered in the Russian Federation. There is a procedure in place for foreign operators on how to receive permission to use domestic airports and airways of the Russian Federation, if required for flight operations.
