Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for providing a runway awareness system for an aircrew of an aircraft. The method comprises receiving a first data stream that provides operational characteristics of a primary aviation parameter on approach to the runway. A second data stream is also received that provides operational characteristics of an alternative aviation parameter on approach to the runway. The first data stream and the second data stream are then displayed in a comparative layout format on a flight display for the aircrew of the aircraft during the approach to the runway.

Abstract: Methods and systems for an aircraft entering a terminal radar approach control (TRACON) airspace to identify a number of feasible target traffic for a paired approach for the aircraft. Traffic data is filtered to identify a plurality of neighbor traffic that are entering the TRACON airspace or within the TRACON airspace when the aircraft is entering the TRACON airspace and estimating, concurrently, for each neighbor traffic of the plurality of neighbor traffic: a trajectory, a traffic arrival time at an ideal location for a respective paired approach with the aircraft, a spacing interval between the neighbor traffic and the aircraft for the respective paired approach, and a respective target location for the aircraft to begin the respective paired approach, as a function of the spacing interval. Based on the estimations, the method identifies feasible, marginally feasible, and infeasible targets, and displays this information in an intuitive lateral display.

Abstract: A method and system for aircraft management for selecting a speeding profile mode for phases of a flight plan including: retrieving assigned space goals (ASG) corresponding to a plurality of achieve by point (ABP) designations for a target flight path of the aircraft wherein the target flight path is associated with a target aircraft; determining a target air speed and applicable speed profile modes by retrieving prior information of traffic history and flight plans of the target aircraft to achieve the ABP designations corresponding to an ASG retrieved; selecting from a plurality of applicable speed profile modes, at least one applicable speed profile mode for a phase of the target flight plan for the aircraft; and comparing statuses of the aircraft of at least a status of fuel remaining for a combination of the selection of the applicable speed profile mode and the phase of the target flight plan.
