Air Canada has selected Rockwell Collins’ DispatchSM 100 avionics service and asset management program for its new fleet of 37 Boeing 787 Dreamliners, which are scheduled to be delivered starting in 2014.

Under the agreement, Rockwell Collins will provide Air Canada with guaranteed spares availability, systems configuration updates, technical repairs and performance monitoring on Rockwell Collins’ comprehensive suite of communications, surveillance, displays and pilot controls systems. The total life cycle solution is coordinated by a dedicated program manager.

“Our in-depth knowledge of Rockwell Collins’ state-of-the-art avionics for the 787, coupled with our total life cycle Dispatch support solution tailored to Air Canada requirements, will maximize aircraft availability and provide predictable maintenance costs,” said Thierry Tosi, vice president and general manager, Service Solutions for Rockwell Collins.
