SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING AIRCRAFT LANDING INSTRUCTIONS
First Claim
1. A system for providing aircraft landing instructions comprising:
- a memory component configured to store specifications for an aircraft;
a controller configured to operate in either of a first mode or a second mode, wherein the first mode comprises a fly-along mode, and wherein the second mode comprises an emergency mode;
wherein, in the fly-along mode, the controller is configured to generate, based on a received operator indication of a destination, a map, wherein the map comprises at least an indication of a current location of the aircraft and a destination indication; and
wherein, in the emergency mode, the controller is configured to generate a series of instructions for controlling and landing the aircraft, wherein the series of instructions are generated at least in part based on the stored specifications for the aircraft; and
a presentation component configured to provide the generated series of instructions to an operator of the aircraft.

Abstract
A system for providing aircraft landing instructions is provided. The system comprises a memory component configured to store specifications for an aircraft. The system also comprises a controller configured to operate in either of a first mode or a second mode, wherein the first mode comprises a fly-along mode, and wherein the second mode comprises an emergency mode. In the fly-along mode, the controller is configured to generate, based on a received operator indication of a destination, a map, wherein the map comprises at least an indication of a current location of the aircraft and a destination indication. In the emergency mode, the controller is configured to generate a series of instructions for controlling and landing the aircraft, wherein the series of instructions are generated at least in part based on the stored specifications for the aircraft. The system also comprises a presentation component configured to provide the generated series of instructions to an operator of the aircraft.
