Autonomous FDR Decoding

The Problem We Solve:

Every time an aircraft experiences a hard landing, engine anomaly, or turbulence event, the Flight Data Recorder (FDR) captures everything. But getting that data into a usable format traditionally takes hours. Someone has to manually download the file, run it through proprietary software, decode complex parameters, and generate a report. If it happens at 2 AM? You wait until morning.

For airlines and maintenance teams, every hour of delay means an aircraft stays on the ground longer. That costs money, creates schedule disruptions, and adds stress to already busy teams.

Our Solution:

SND Technologies offers a fully autonomous FDR decoding system that works 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Here is exactly how it works:

1. You email your .dlu file to fdr@sndtech.pk with "FDR" in the subject line.

2. Our system triggers instantly. The moment your email arrives, our autonomous platform begins decoding. It handles:

• Honeywell .dlu format conversion
• Complex parameter decoding (BNR, BCD, Discrete, ISO, ASCII)
• Precise unit conversions (feet to meters, °F to °C, etc.)
• Frame validation against parameter libraries

3. You receive your report in under 30 minutes. We deliver analysis-ready CSV files and clear PDF summaries. Everything is traceable, auditable, and ready to share with your team.

What You Can Do With Our Reports:

• Monitor engine health: Track performance trends and catch issues early.
• Evaluate hard landings: Get precise vertical load data to make structural assessment decisions.
• Analyze turbulence events: Understand exactly what happened during in-flight incidents.
• Support investigations: Access clean, organized data for safety teams.

Reasonability Reports:

We can provide reasonability report at competetive cost to meet regulatory requirement.

Supported Aircraft:

We currently have specialized parameter libraries for the A320 and A330 families. Need support for other fleets like the B777 or B737? Contact us. We can develop libraries on request.

Who This Service Is For:

• Airlines and MROs
• Flight safety investigators
• Maintenance planning teams
• Fleet operations managers
