    Abstract: A flight deck system for converting a clearance message into sub-tasks for flight crew to execute is provided. The flight deck system comprises a controller configured to: receive the intent of instructions in a clearance message; determine a set of flight-crew executable instructions for performance to meet the intent of the instructions in the clearance message; group the set of instructions as a list of tasks; retrieve aircraft state information from one or more onboard avionics systems; determine context sensitive elements related to the set of instructions in the list of tasks using the retrieved aircraft state information; add the context sensitive elements to the list of tasks; and cause the list of tasks, which includes the set of instructions and the context sensitive elements, to be displayed for flight crew viewing on a display device.

    Abstract: Systems and methods directed to evaluating potential loss of separation are provided. The method continuously receives a host status data, as well as traffic flight information for neighbor traffic. Responsive to a controller pilot data link communication (CPDLC) message with a flight profile change, the method continues by processing the host aircraft status data and the traffic flight information, to (i) construct a modified host flight path based on incorporating the host profile change without delay, and (ii) construct a neighbor aircraft trajectory for a neighbor aircraft. The method processes the modified host flight path and the neighbor aircraft trajectory with loss of separation (LOS) rules, to identify a potential loss of separation (LOS) event. Responsive to identifying the potential LOS event, the method continues by annunciating information describing the potential LOS and its location.
