I found this in a comment on the above article. All three legacy US airlines (AA, UA, and DL) use SCEPTRE as their primary maintenance and engineering system. It’s old, as Gary described, and is mainframe driven. It also has no central owner but is essentially maintained by armies of consultants from firms like IBM or DXC. Each airline’s implementation of SCEPTRE is quite different. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Itschak Mugzach Sent: Monday, July 26, 2021 1:19 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [External] Any Sceptre user here? Interesting. I thought that all deprecated Sceptre. Who is supporting the current users? בתאריך יום ב׳, 26 ביולי 2021 ב-21:11 מאת Pommier, Rex < [email protected]>: > Yup, several of the big US based airlines use it. Delta does, as does > American.
