摘要: A system and a method for operating an aircraft during a climb phase of flight include a control unit configured to receive data regarding one or both of a current flight or one or more previous flights of the aircraft from one or more sensors of the aircraft. The control unit is further configured to determine efficient climb phase parameters for the aircraft based on the data. The aircraft is operated during the climb phase of one or both of the current flight or one or more future flights according to the efficient climb phase parameters.

摘要: An aircraft system, computer-implemented method, and computer program product for optimizing a flight plan for schedule, ride quality, and efficiency is provided. Tradeoff preferences between on-schedule operations, ride quality, and efficiency are received. A multi-axis chart that includes axes for on-schedule operations, ride quality, and efficiency is displayed. Values are arranged along the respective axes based on the tradeoff preferences. When a flight plan is received, values for on-schedule operations, ride quality, and efficiency are extracted. A triangle is overlaid on the multi-axis chart such that apexes of the triangle intersect the respective axes at locations corresponding to the extracted values. When multiple optional flight plans are received, multiple triangles corresponding to the respective flight plans can be overlaid on the multi-axis chart. The pilot can identify a most-preferable flight plan based on visual differences between the triangles.

摘要: A computer-implemented method and associated aircraft system and computer program product are disclosed. The method comprises receiving a first tradeoff preference representing a tradeoff between a first flight plan characteristic and a second flight plan characteristic; receiving a first flight plan corresponding to a first value of the first flight plan characteristic; and displaying a graphical representation of the first flight plan on a display of the aircraft. Displaying the graphical representation of the first flight plan comprises displaying a chart; displaying one or more predefined values on the chart that are referenced to the first flight plan characteristic, wherein a visual arrangement of the one or more predefined values is based in part on the first tradeoff preference; and displaying a first geometric overlay representing the first flight plan on the chart, wherein the first value of the first flight plan characteristic is displayed relative to the visual arrangement.
