Abstract

See full text

An automated avionics system for determining a modified descent path of an aircraft includes a memory operable to store a database of flight information related to a flight plan and a processor operably coupled with the memory. The processor is operable to receive an indication to initiate descent of the aircraft associated with a position of the aircraft, receive information related to the flight plan from the database, and based on the information received, perform modifications to the path of descent. The processor is further operable to, based on a comparison of an original position of descent and the indicated position, determine a modified position of descent for the aircraft and calculate a modified path of descent, the modified path of descent complying with the of altitude constraint(s) of the flight plan.
