AIRCRAFT FUEL OPTIMIZATION ANALYTICS

摘要

Method and system for providing optimal, achievable flight plans for a flight of an aircraft and for providing accurate fuel load calculations. The method and system can check for and correct inaccurate assumptions in a flight plan. The method and system can also perform statistical analysis to recognize and account for real-world limitations on flight plans. The method and system can also perform statistical analysis to determine actual aircraft wear that can affect aircraft performance and account for such wear when calculating fuel load.

主权项

1. A method for optimizing a flight plan for an aircraft, comprising:
comparing aspects of an operator flight plan to criteria, wherein the criteria relate to aspects of the operator flight plan; upon determining that the operator flight plan deviates from at least one of the criteria, amending aspects of the operator flight plan to minimize the deviations; and outputting an amended flight plan, wherein the amended flight plan includes the amended aspects.
