SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPTIMISING FLIGHT EFFICIENCY

Abstract: a method and system for improving the fuel efficiency of an aircraft flight, and a method for training a machine learning module to predict the most probable descent flight trajectories are disclosed. the machine learning module uses two stages of clustering and regression analysis to analyse historical flight data, so that the trained model can determine the most probable flight trajectory for the descent phase of a future/ongoing flight. this can then be used to determine an adjusted top of descent and output to the pilot of the future/ongoing flight, or used to control an associated autopilot system.
