Azul selects Safran Landing System’s PresSense to reduce AOG downtime post landing

Azul has chosen the Safran’s PresSense connected tire and its pressure measurement system to equip its fleet of Airbus A320s and A321s, and Embraer 195-E1s and 195-E2s, nearly 110 aircraft. PresSense is intended to simplify airline maintenance operations by allowing for remotely measuring aircraft tire pressures, just 45 minutes after landing. Many operators perform these mandatory daily maintenance checks manually, using a pressure gauge positioned on the valve. However, in order to be performed in complete safety, the operation requires waiting for the tire to cool, i.e., at least 3 hours after landing Commenting on the first deal for PresSense,
