FAA Names OperatorOS as an Authorized System for Electronic Signatures and Recordkeeping

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Surf Air Mobility Inc. (NYSE: SRFM) (“Surf Air Mobility” or the “Company”) today announced that the Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) has approved OperatorOS, Surf Air Mobility's proprietary flight operations software, as an authorized systems of record for the Company’s airlines to operate with electronic alternatives to paper signatures, records, and manuals.

The approval from the FAA covers the Part 135 certificate under which both Southern Airways Express and Mokulele Airlines operate. By using OperatorOS, the Company’s pilots, mechanics, dispatchers, and trainers can now work from screens rather than paper binders. Crew records, training, weight and balance, bulletins, and safety reports are now electronic, as is every aircraft manual on the certificate, including the pilot operating handbook.

Louis Saint-Cyr, President of Airline Operations of Surf Air Mobility, said: “OperatorOS has helped us transform our business, making our airline operations more efficient, reliable, and profitable. Many Part 135 operators still run on paper records and manual processes, and we see the FAA’s authorization of OperatorOS as a system of record as a vote of confidence in our software that will help unlock the commercial opportunity for OperatorOS as we bring it to other operators."

OperatorOS is developed and tested within Surf Air Mobility's own airline operations before external release.
