Patent number: 8868259Abstract: A flight data service subscription system allows personnel to subscribe to flight data services using an electronic devices such as a multifunctional display (MFD) onboard an aircraft. The MFD is used to select regional areas of coverage and generate requests for subscriptions to flight data services. Flight data application software running on the MFD manages flight data and the subscription requests. A server operated by a flight data service provider receives the subscription requests from the MFD and dispatches flight data responsive to the requests for the selected region. A wireless local area network on the ground transfers flight data and subscription requests between the MFD and the flight data subscription server.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 2012Date of Patent: October 21, 2014Assignee: The Boeing CompanyInventors: Thiru Srinivasan, Mike Abbott, Samuel Gilliss, Scott Reagan
