  • Patent number: 11580872
    Abstract: A learning management system may be configured to retrieve roster data from a roster database and determine from the roster data whether a pilot has a scheduled downtime during a flight or a layover time before the flight. The system may further retrieve flight data associated with the flight from the learning management system and determine a training concept associated with the flight. The system may also select a training exercise from multiple training exercises, where the training exercise is associated with the training concept. A notification may be sent to an electronic device associated with the pilot, where the notification includes an offer to perform the training exercise.

  • Patent number: 11216146
    Abstract: A system for mid-fidelity simulation may include a memory configured to store data representing a flight scenario. The system may further include a display device configured to present a graphical user interface to a user, the graphical user interface including representations of a first set of control interfaces, the first set of control interfaces including one or more features that are common between multiple aircraft, the graphical user interface omitting one or more features of the first set of control interfaces that are not common between the multiple aircraft. The system may also include a processor configured to perform a simulation of the flight scenario while receiving user input and displaying user output via the representations of the first set of control interfaces.
