August 22, 2024 – Tabula, a leading provider of aviation GPS guidance and job management systems for the agricultural industry, has completed an integration with the Reabe Hopper Quantity Gauge to keep the pilot up to date with how much coverage they can expect before heading back to base to refill.
Designed to help pilots plan their runs before heading back to base, the system uses the current target rate and actual tank volume to determine coverage area before empty, displaying the total on the AirVision tablet as hectares or acres remaining – removing the distraction of in-the-head calculations as the job progresses.
Back at base, loaders can keep track of the area remaining for individual aircraft through Tabula’s online platform Tabula Live, allowing them to anticipate arrival order and prepare appropriate volume and spray mixes for incoming aircraft, decreasing turnaround time between runs.
Reabe Air thanked Tabula for their collaboration on this project. Troy Reabe, owner of Reabe Air states, “Our industry’s greatest asset is each other and we, as vendors, should work together so we can create the best products for the customer. Reabe Air is committed to making innovative, reliable, and safe products that are designed with the mechanic and pilot in mind.”
While there is a small cost for cabling, the feature is available free of charge for all Tabula AirVision customers with standard Reabe Hopper Quantity Gauge installations.
