flight management

Flight management refers to the systems and processes pilots and airlines use to plan, monitor, and control a flight. It involves selecting the optimal route, altitude, and speed for efficiency and safety, using onboard computers called Flight Management Systems (FMS). These systems integrate navigation, weather data, and aircraft performance to automate tasks like course adjustments and fuel management. During the flight, pilots monitor these systems to ensure the aircraft stays on plan and responds to changing conditions. Overall, flight management enhances safety, efficiency, and precision in operating the aircraft from takeoff to landing.
