Analyze Flight Mapping - A summary of the activity
This activity enables determining the expected utilization of an aircraft based on the real-time flight schedules available. The planner with the available flight schedule details virtually assigns the aircraft to Trip #, by analyzing the accumulated FH / FC of the aircraft. Assigning aircraft virtually to Trip # enables generating aircraft utilization for maintenance forecasting, while ensuring minimal variation in the utilization of all the aircraft.
The “Analyze Flight Mapping” activity allows mapping aircraft virtually to Trip # based on the aircraft data like cumulative flying hours and flying cycles calculated using the flight schedule details. You can unassign the aircraft mapped to the Trip #. You can also swap between two aircraft and plan maintenance activity for the aircraft using this page.
This activity allows you to accomplish the following:
Assign aircraft virtually to Trip #.
Unassign aircraft mapped to Trip #.
Swap Trip #between two aircraft.
Plan maintenance activity for an aircraft.
Record / delete notes against an aircraft.

What you can do in this activity
Plan maintenance activity for aircraft
Select the “Mapping” tab.
Select the ‘Aircraft Reg #’ to be mapped to the Trip #.
Select the Trip # in the ‘Trip #’ drop-down list box.
Select “Assign” in the “Mapping Type” drop-down list box.
Enter the date range in ‘From Date’ and ‘To Date’ during which mapping is to be done.
Click the “Map Aircraft” pushbutton to map the aircraft to Trip #.
Select “Aircraft Reg #” in the ‘Display Option’ drop-down list box in the header.
Select “FH” or “FC” in the ‘Parameter’ drop-down list box and select the ‘Display Month’.
The system displays the Trip # concatenated with expected utilization FH / FC in bracket against Aircraft Reg # against the respective date column, as ‘F2 72 (04:00)’. ‘F2 72’ is Trip #, 04:00 will be the expected FH for the particular date.
Select the ‘Mapping’ tab.
Select the ‘Aircraft Reg #’ which is required to be unassigned.
Select “Unassign” in ‘Mapping Type’ drop-down list box
Enter the date range in ‘From Date’ and ‘To Date’ during which aircraft is to be unassigned.
Click the “Map Aircraft” pushbutton to unassign the aircraft.
Select the ‘Mapping’ tab.
Select the ‘Aircraft Reg #” in the Aircraft Reg # drop-down list box, which is required to be Swapped.
Select the ‘Aircraft Reg #” in ‘Swap Aircraft’ drop-down list box, which will be swapped.
Select “Swap” in ‘Mapping Type’ drop-down list box.
Enter the date range during which aircraft need to be swapped.
Click the ‘Map Aircraft’ pushbutton to swap the aircraft.
Plan maintenance activity for aircraft
Select the ‘Mapping’ tab.
Select the ‘Aircraft Reg #” in Aircraft Reg # drop-down list box, which is required to be set for maintenance activity.
Select “Maint” in ‘Mapping Type’ drop-down list box.
Enter the date range during which aircraft needs to be set for maintenance activity.
Click the ‘Map Aircraft’ push button to set the aircraft for maintenance.
Select the “Notes” tab.
Select the “A/C Reg #”.
Enter the date range for which notes are entered.
Enter any remarks in “Notes” field.
Click the “Save” pushbutton to record notes against the aircraft.
You can delete the notes using the ‘Delete’ pushbutton.
