sSL
Sync and organize aviation manuals from FlySmart and Blink gateways with direct file access and secure connections.
- Syncs aviation manuals from FlySmart and Blink gateways to Apple devices
- Direct file access — no proprietary viewer required
- Available on iOS, iPadOS, and macOS with secure gateway connections
sSL (Sync Library) bridges the gap between airline EFB gateways and the flexibility that modern Apple devices offer. Instead of being locked into a proprietary viewer, sSL syncs your operational content from FlySmart and Blink gateways and makes it directly accessible.
What sSL does
- Synchronizes your aviation manuals, operational documents, and data from connected FlySmart or Blink gateways
- Organizes synchronized content in a clear library structure — easy to browse and navigate
- Provides direct file access — documents are accessible as standard files, not locked in a proprietary format
- Secure connections — all gateway communication uses secure protocols
Why direct file access matters
Standard EFB apps typically display documents through their own viewer, which limits how you can interact with the content. sSL gives you the underlying files — meaning you can open them in the best tool for the job, annotate with your preferred app, or integrate content into other workflows.
Platform support
sSL runs natively on:
- iPhone and iPad — full sync and library access
- macOS — same capabilities, native Mac interface
Who uses sSL
Pilots and flight crew who want more flexibility in how they access their EFB content. EFB administrators who need a reliable sync tool with secure gateway connections. Airlines looking for a lightweight client for distributing content to crew devices.
Frequently asked questions
What gateways does sSL connect to?
sSL connects to FlySmart gateways and Blink gateways — the two primary distribution systems used for Airbus EFB content in airline environments.
What does "direct file access" mean?
Unlike some EFB apps that lock content in proprietary formats, sSL makes synced files accessible as standard files on your device — you can open them with any compatible app, share them, or use them in other workflows.
Is the gateway connection secure?
Yes. sSL uses secure connection protocols for all gateway communication. The "sSL" name reflects this focus on secure connections.
Can sSL replace the native FlySmart or Blink apps?
sSL is a complementary tool — it handles synchronization and organization, giving you more flexibility in how you access and manage your content library. It works alongside your existing EFB environment.
