    Abstract: A flight deck system for providing task management assistance in managing the flight path to the flight crew is provided. The system is configured to: mine flight plan data for a current flight plan, navigational data, and vertical situation display (VSD) data; obtain notification data items originating from onboard avionics systems and systems external to the aircraft that indicate upcoming conditions that will affect the current flight plan; automatically analyze the mined flight plan data and the notification data items to identify a sensed deviation condition; automatically identify an aircraft-related deviation condition from an aircraft failure event; receive flight crew notification of a non-sensed deviation condition; automatically generate a plurality of flight plan deviation options to accommodate a sensed deviation condition, an aircraft-related deviation condition, or a non-sensed deviation condition; and present graphical elements representative of the flight plan deviation options to the flight crew on an integrated interactive graphical user interface.

    Abstract: A method of displaying information is provided. The method comprises: displaying, on a GUI page that displays a primary function, a plurality of top-level graphical control elements in a row on the GUI page; displaying, on the GUI page responsive to selection of one of the top-level graphical control elements, one or more second-level graphical control elements adjacent to the selected top-level graphical control element and an outline that encompasses the selected top-level graphical control element and the one or more second-level graphical control elements; receiving data entry for affecting the state of a system parameter via a graphical control element while simultaneously providing access to one or more unselected graphical control elements; and transferring the entered data value to appropriate equipment on the vehicle for implementation. The display size of the top-level and second-level graphical control elements allows the display device to continue to display the primary function.

    Abstract: A method for providing task management assistance in managing the flight path to the flight crew is provided. The method comprises: mining flight plan data and navigational data from an aircraft system; obtaining notification data items originating from systems external to the aircraft; determining an estimated flight time to reach each of the plurality of waypoints, course data items, and the upcoming conditions; causing a timeline graphical user interface (GUI) to be displayed on an aircraft display, wherein the timeline GUI is configured to display a timeline, waypoint graphical elements representative of the waypoints, course data item graphical elements representative of the other course data items, and notification data item graphical elements representative of the upcoming conditions; automatically analyzing the mined flight plan data and the notification data items to determine if deviation from the flight plan is suggested; and providing a notification of the suggested deviation from when deviation is suggested.
