Safety aircraft flight system
First Claim
1. A system for protecting aircraft operation at all times while an aircraft is in service, the aircraft having a pilot-operated control system to operate aircraft flight and taxi controls and an on-board autopilot coupled to the control system to automatically operate the aircraft flight and taxi controls, the system for protecting aircraft operation comprising:
- an anti-crash system on the aircraft that automatically and without human intervention transmits commands to prevent the aircraft from crashing into the ground and into objects on the ground and in the air;
an auto-controlling and piloting system on the aircraft that receives the commands from the anti-crash system and is configured to prevent control by the pilot-operated control system and the on-board autopilot, the auto-controlling and piloting system overriding the pilot-operated control system and the autopilot to control movement of the aircraft on the ground and in the air;
a monitoring device system that monitors aircraft operation at all times while the aircraft is in service, the monitoring device system communicating with said anti-crash system; and
a secondary aircraft controller system on board the aircraft and coupled to the auto-controlling and piloting system for controlling the aircraft flight and taxi controls independent of the pilot-operated controls and the on-board autopilot.

Abstract
The present invention is a computer system designed to use the conventional devices and special programming of the present invention that will ensure the safe operation of aircraft. The present invention is an anti-terrorist and Anti-Crash System to ensure and maintain complete control of an aircraft on the ground, during taxiing and even in the air. With the present invention in place, an aircraft can be kept a safe distance from any building and other aircraft, and the aircraft can be remotely controlled. The system provides greater national security. Utilizing the On-Demand audio and visual monitoring components of the present invention, simultaneously, proper authorities can access all factual data from all onboard flight systems before a crash is imminent. Equipment lockouts are in place as well, so that if an aircraft is commandeered, the actual person in the cockpit is unable to effect aircraft travel, virtually eliminating human error.

11. An aircraft protection system for use at all times while an aircraft is in service, the aircraft having a control system to operate aircraft flight and taxi controls and an on-board autopilot coupled to the control system to automatically operate the aircraft flight and taxi controls, the system for protecting aircraft operation comprising:
-
an on-board monitoring system configured to monitor the aircraft at all times while the aircraft is in service and to transmit communication signals; an anti-crash control system on board the aircraft and coupled to the monitoring system and responsive to the communication signals to automatically and without human intervention transmit commands to prevent the aircraft from crashing into objects; an auto-controlling and piloting system on board the aircraft that receives the commands from the anti-crash system and prevents control of the aircraft by the control system and the on-board autopilot, the auto-controlling and piloting system overriding the autopilot to control movement of the aircraft on the ground and in the air; a secondary aircraft controller system on board the aircraft to control the aircraft flight and taxi controls in response to the auto-controlling and piloting system; and an authorities security aircraft flight equipment computer remote from the aircraft that communicates with the anti-crash system, the auto-controlling and piloting system, and the monitoring system. - View Dependent Claims (12)

13. An aircraft management system for an aircraft having flight and taxi controls and an on-board autopilot coupled to the flight controls, the system comprising:
-
a monitoring system that monitors the operation of the aircraft at all times while the aircraft is in service to automatically detect when the aircraft is on a collision course with an object or the ground and automatically generating a detection signal when a collision course with an object or the ground is detected; and an anti-crash system coupled to the monitoring system for receiving the detection signal therefrom and coupled to the autopilot and coupled to the flight and taxi controls via a secondary control system on the aircraft, the anti-crash system responsive to the detection signal to send commands to an auto-controlling and piloting system on board the aircraft to automatically bypass the autopilot and control the path of the aircraft without any human intervention to avoid a collision with the object or the ground, the anti-crash system configured to prevent control by the on-board autopilot when the anti-crash system is activated.

14. A system for protecting aircraft operation, comprising:
-
an anti-crash system that automatically prevents an aircraft from colliding with other objects; an auto-controlling and piloting system, receiving commands from said anti-crash system; a monitoring device system communicating with said anti-crash system; an authorities security aircraft flight equipment computer communicating with said anti-crash system, said auto-controlling and piloting system, and said monitoring system; and a secondary aircraft controller system, wherein a course set before lift off in the aircraft can be changed during flight only by use of the authorities security aircraft flight equipment computer installed in the ground-based object by three separate authorities entering three separate codes. - View Dependent Claims (15)
