  83. Damage assessment time minimised Dent and buckle – augmented reality • Aircraft damage causes multiple delays per day, complex assessment processes • All damage has to be recorded and tracked for the life of the aircraft • Augmented reality allows pilots and engineers to see previous damage super- imposed onto the aircraft, minimising time taken to assess new damage 93 93

  84. Drone and robotic technology Remote inspections - drones • Modify existing technology • Drones programmed to scan and assess any damage • Enhanced ability to undertake remote checks More time efficient o Greater accuracy o • In development with Coptercraft, Measurement Solutions and Bristol Robotics Laboratory • Trialling in coming months 94 94

  85. What can prognosis do for us? • Prognosis systems can be used to send real time data of components (e.g. time to open and close, temperature, pressure) • Live data can be used to establish when a unit is about to fail • Ability to monitor each individual unit and predict a failure before it actually happens HOW IT would WORK… Data Snapshot ACARS A ir-ground Engineering datalink Processing Pattern Component Matching Engineering SITA Ground Rectification/ Dept. & MOC System Network Alert Removal Generation Costumer Notification Goal of prognosis is to minimise aircraft on the ground, standby aircraft, delays and passenger compensation 95 95

  86. Summary • Innovation cost saving improvements in easyJet engineering is part of the Company’s DNA • Innovations are a mix of shorter term solutions which have already been implemented and longer term research projects • A focus on efficiency allows easyJet to ‘future - proof’ easyJet’s operation and leverage greater cost and efficiency savings as the fleet grows • Key driver behind easyJet innovation is to drive sustainable cost out of the business and improve operational efficiency 96 96
