Ops Brief 2.0 allows for the notification, viewing, navigation, downloading, printing, and management of operational briefing packages provisioned by Universal® Trip Support Services and/or UVflightplanner.com.

"We understand the impact the iPad has had on our clients and the business aviation industry," said Randy Stephens, Division Vice President, Product Management and Specialty Services, Universal. "We give our clients a choice; some still want paper copies of their trip support briefings but we're averaging more than 7,800 briefings per month sent via our app straight to their iPads. That trend will continue upward with the addition of UVflightplanner.com operational briefing packages now included in Ops Brief 2.0."
New features and enhancements included in Ops Brief 2.0 include:
Availability of UVflightplanner.com briefing packages - Users can now access UVflightplanner.com flight plan and weather briefings
Printing - Users can print their briefings from within the app using Apple AirPrint
E-mail Forwarding - Users can forward briefing packages using the default iPad e-mail client
Ancillary Document Management - Users can save/recall ancillary trip documents (Flight Summary, Service Confirmations, etc.) to and from a local device
"Open In..." - Users can open/upload operational briefing packages within other PDF-compatible iPad apps and services such as GoodReader, iAnnotate, Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.
"We're committed to continuing to develop tools that allow our clients to work with us the way they want to," said Stephens. "If that means they want to call in and have a conversation with their trip support team, they can do that, but they also have self-service options. It all comes down to enhanced efficiency and making it easier for operators to get in touch with us in a variety of ways -- whichever is most convenient for them."
