A method for providing landing lights operation data during a flight of an aircraft is provided. The method obtains a standard operating procedure (SOP) for operating landing lights onboard the aircraft during the flight, wherein the SOP comprises a customary industry-recommended practice for at least one of extension and retraction of the landing lights on the aircraft, and wherein execution of the SOP produces a flight efficiency level including at least fuel burn and drag parameters; determines an optimized operating procedure for the landing lights to increase the flight efficiency level to achieve an increased flight efficiency level, based on real-time contextual data; and presents an advisory comprising at least graphical elements associated with the optimized operating procedure, a potential cost savings for the optimized operating procedure, and the increased flight efficiency level onboard the aircraft, via a display device.
