Software as a service provider Bluetail will launch its second-generation digital business aviation records platform Mach 2 Search at the end of this month, offering major improvements over its predecessor.

“When we introduced our Mach Search engine in 2021, it set the standard as the first machine learning search engine purpose-built to meet the specific needs of aircraft owners and operators,” said company co-founder and CEO Roberto Guerrieri. “The many improvements we’ve built into Mach 2 are the results of what we’ve learned and what our customers and partners have asked for over these past two years.”

Bluetail’s engineers incorporated a series of enhancements to the search algorithms, enabling optimized queries, machine learning, and auto-filters to provide answers to complex questions 10 times faster. The system can even learn to recognize the handwriting and signatures of A&P technicians and inspectors.

“While the technology behind Mach 2 is proprietary, the real differentiator is just how much it can do to help our customers achieve faster turns on each maintenance, compliance, or conformity event,” added Greg Baynham, Bluetail’s v-p of development and delivery. “Mach 2 auto-recognizes all major filters, so maintenance personnel just have to click on the link to view, search, or share logbooks, forms, ATA codes, filenames, dates, or whatever the job requires.”
