  • Patent number: 11665517
    Abstract: An aviation-related communication network includes a plurality of base stations configured to communicate with in-flight aircraft, a plurality of aviation-related communication network radios disposed on selected aircraft where the aviation-related communication network radios are configured to communicate with base stations of the aviation-related communication network via aviation-related communication network communication links using a first communication standard, and a first wireless access point on each of the selected aircraft to define a first wireless local area network on each of the selected aircraft. At least some of the selected aircraft include a second wireless local area network that defines a priority access network. Devices of the priority access network may be provided with priority access to bandwidth supplied by the aviation-related communication network relative to devices of the first wireless local area network.

  • Patent number: 11475719
    Abstract: Systems and methods for integrating data related to aircraft operations such as data from flight logs, flight tracker, maintenance, connectivity, router into modules, for a specific aircraft that can be communicated to and displayed on a single device display in real-time. Systems and methods for integrating data related to aircraft operations into modules, that is both aircraft-specific (engine data, take-off and landing times) and personnel specific (i.e. crew scheduling, passenger manifestos), that includes a web-based interface which incorporates multiple data fields, and can display and communicate on devices, including but not limited to desktop computers, portable devices, such as smart phones, tablets and laptops.

  • Patent number: 10275952
    Abstract: A method for monitoring aircraft operation status comprising the steps of transmitting aircraft operation data from an on-board monitoring system of an aircraft while in a cruising phase of flight in at least one of a continuous transmission and a batched transmission while in flight and receiving aircraft operation data in the form of at least one of the continuous transmission and the batched transmission from the aircraft in flight, the form of the aircraft operation data being responsive to at least one of phase of flight, network traffic across a communication device associated with the aircraft, or network traffic across a network associated with the aircraft. The method further comprises identifying the aircraft associated with the aircraft operation data and recording the aircraft operation data to an aircraft database.

  • Patent number: 9607445
    Abstract: A method for monitoring aircraft operation status comprising receiving aircraft operation data, identifying an aircraft associated with the aircraft operation data, recording the aircraft operation data to an aircraft database, and determining whether the aircraft operation data complies with rules governing aircraft operation. Upon determining the aircraft operation data complies with the rules governing aircraft operation, the compliance is recorded to the aircraft database. Upon determining the aircraft operation data comprises a non-compliance, a non-compliant aircraft system or component associated with the non-compliance is identified, the non-compliance to the aircraft database is recorded, and an action responsive to the non-compliance is performed.
