1. A method for utilizing audio commands onboard an aircraft, the method comprising:
- identifying a flight phase for the aircraft, resulting in an identified flight phase;
receiving an audio input, resulting in received audio input;
filtering the received audio input in a manner that is influenced by the identified flight phase for the aircraft, resulting in filtered audio input; and
validating the filtered audio input as a first voice command of a first plurality of possible voice commands.

13. A method for utilizing voice commands onboard a vehicle, the method comprising:
-
determining a current operating state for the vehicle; recognizing a received voice command as a first voice command of a plurality of possible voice commands, the first voice command being associated with one or more allowed operating states; and in response to recognizing the received voice command, executing the first voice command when the operating state of the vehicle corresponds to an allowed operating state of the one or more allowed operating states. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15)

16. A system for an aircraft comprising:
-
an avionics system onboard the aircraft; an audio input device onboard the aircraft, the audio input device being capable of receiving audio input; a data storage element comprising a first plurality of possible voice commands; and a processing system coupled to the avionics system, the audio input device, and the data storage element, wherein the processing system is configured to; identify a flight phase for the aircraft, resulting in an identified flight phase; filter the audio input based on the identified flight phase, resulting in filtered audio input; recognize the filtered audio input as a first voice command of the first plurality of possible voice commands; and provide the first voice command to the avionics system in response to recognizing the filtered audio input as the first voice command, wherein the avionics system is configured to execute the first voice command. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)

20. A system for an aircraft comprising:
-
an avionics system onboard the aircraft; an audio input device onboard the aircraft, the audio input device being capable of receiving audio input; a data storage element comprising a first plurality of possible voice commands, each voice command of the first plurality of possible voice commands being associated with one or more allowed flight phases; and a processing system coupled to the avionics system, the audio input device, and the data storage element, wherein the processing system is configured to; identify a flight phase for the aircraft, resulting in an identified flight phase; recognize the audio input as a first voice command of the first plurality of possible voice commands; and when the identified flight phase corresponds to a flight phase of the one or more allowed flight phases for the first voice command, provide the first voice command to the avionics system, wherein the avionics system is configured to execute the first voice command.
