    Abstract: A Real-time Allocation Flight Management System and method, which defines specific roles functions for crew during the implementation of the flight plan. The flight control system requires crew input during pre-programmed way points during the flight. When fully functional, the system can control all aspects of a flight, including attitude and power control as well as all ancillary systems necessary for flight from takeoff to touchdown. In the event that the crew is incapacitated, the system can select the most probable approach procedure in use based on whatever information is available such as current and forecast destination weather, prevailing winds, and approach possibilities, such as available runways. Adjustment of the flight plan trajectory, allows the system to follow the adjusted trajectory. Included is a simulator software program, a free-standing flight simulator and methods of incorporating training protocols for flight crews.
