1. A dynamic comprehensive hazard flight planning apparatus, comprising:

  • a processor; and

    a memory disposed in communication with the processor and storing processor-issuable instructions to;

    receive parameter data for an initial anticipated flight plan;

    determine aircraft data for an aircraft associated with the initial anticipated flight plan, the aircraft data including an airfoil type;

    obtain atmospheric data based on the flight plan parameter data;

    determine a plurality of four-dimensional grid points based on the flight plan parameter data;

    determine corresponding comprehensive hazard data for each point of the plurality of four-dimensional grid point based on the airfoil type, the comprehensive hazard data including comprehensive turbulence data and icing data;

    determine an at least one alternative flight plan based on the flight plan parameter data and the determined comprehensive hazard data for the initial anticipated flight plan; and

    provide the determined at least one alternative flight plan.
