Abstract: A system for automatically constructing a flight plan that aligns with a boundary line is provided. The system has a controller that is configured to: automatically select a set of geographical (geo) coordinate waypoints along a boundary line using waypoints from the geographical database responsive to flight crew input; refine the set of geo coordinate waypoints using a calculated turn initiation distance and a turn completion distance for every waypoint; further refine the refined set of geo coordinate waypoints based on the course change between waypoints; generate a set of courses and distances between waypoints through computing, for each set of two consecutive waypoints in the further refined set of geo coordinate waypoints, the course and distance between the two consecutive waypoints; and construct the flight plan based on the waypoints in the further refined set of geo coordinate waypoints and the set of courses and distances between waypoints.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses and systems for use of a magnetometer calibration (MAG-CAL) application to calibrate a magnetometer while an aircraft is in-flight including: generating a MAG-CAL calculated pattern based on a set of aircraft parameters for the in-air magnetometer calibration, the set of aircraft parameters at least comprise: speed, bank angle, altitude and position of the aircraft; generating a set of waypoints that define a calibration flight path corresponding to the MAG-CAL calculated pattern; Configuring the calibration flight path of the MAG-CAL calculated pattern to be part of the original flight path of the in-flight aircraft to enable the aircraft while flying the original flight to proceed in part on the calibration flight path corresponding to the MAG-CAL calculated pattern; and enabling the aircraft to deviate while in-flight from the original flight path to the calibration flight path to enable a sufficient level of calibration for accurate magnetometer operation.

Abstract: A method for providing circling approach data onboard an aircraft is disclosed. For a current, circling approach of the aircraft to a destination airport, the method identifies a circling approach procedure applicable to an optimal runway, by a processor communicatively coupled to a system memory element configured to store a database of circling approach procedures and a source for temporary restrictions; determines a circling boundary to the optimal runway, based on the circling approach procedure; determines temporary circling restrictions for the aircraft, based on conflicting traffic from at least a second airport; constructs a lateral path and a vertical path to guide the aircraft to the optimal runway of the destination airport, based on the circling approach procedure, the circling boundary, and the temporary circling restrictions; and presents graphical elements and text associated with the circling approach procedure, the circling boundary, and the temporary restrictions, by a display device.
