1. A method of generating flight information in real time during flight operations using a computing device comprising a processor and memory, the method comprising:
- receiving, by the computing device, flight information indicative of one or more flight objects, the computing device executing an efficiency and operational flight object system operable to update a flight plan in real time, the one or more flight objects comprising a software container containing flight plan information;
extracting, by the efficiency and operational flight object system, the flight information from the one or more flight objects and rendering the flight information for viewing, the flight information including probable and predicted flight information;
receiving, by the efficiency and operational flight object system, a flight plan entry associated with the flight information;
determining, by the efficiency and operational flight object system, optimized and efficiency flight plan routing, fuel loading, departure, arrival, and approach procedure flight information based on the flight plan entry;
generating, by the efficiency and operational flight object system, an optimized and efficiency flight information advisory using the optimized and efficiency flight plan routing, fuel loading, departure, arrival, and approach procedure flight information; and
rendering the generated optimized and efficiency flight information advisory for viewing.
