The paper is in two parts. Part One is a general description of the problem involved in planning the operation of large numbers of long-range aircraft and a brief description of the particular part of the problem which is addressed by the Flight Operations Planner(FLIOP). This Part is designed to be of interest to the general reader. Part Two is, in its main body, a somewhat more technical description of the technique. It is believed that Part Two will be of interest to those people who might consider using or preparing to use the routine here described. The appendices should be of interest to FLIOP users. Although the B-47 and KC-97 aircrafts are used in the subsequent parts of this paper for illustrative purposes, the techniques described have proved to be equally applicable to the various models of the B-52, B-58, B-66, KC-135, KB-50, F-101, C-124, C-130, C-133 and can be applied to any fixed wing type aircraft.
