CONTROLLER FOR AN AIRCRAFT TRACKER A method, apparatus, and aircraft tracker system for reporting state information for an aircraft (202). A state (212) of the aircraft (202) is identified using sensor data (210) received from an aircraft sensor system (206) in the aircraft (202). The state information (222) is transmitted at a reporting rate (224) set using the state (212) of the aircraft (202) identified from the sensor data (210), at least one of a crew command (214) or a ground command (218) when at least one of the crew command (214) is received from a crew interface or the ground command (218) is received from a ground source (220), and a policy (518) defining priorities for reporting that are based on at least one of the crew command (214), the ground command (218), or the state (212) of the aircraft (202) identified from the sensor data (210). 202 AIRCRAFT 209 AIRCRAFT TRACKING SYSTEM 212N\ STATE REPORTING J 224 204 AIRCRAFT TRACKER -4 ESTATEE 210 fl SENSORDATA INFORMATION 222 AIRCRAFT COMMUNICATIONS 206 SENSOR SYSTEM SYSTEM 208 CREW GROUND 214-L COMMAND COMMAND K 2 18 CREW GROUND 216 INTERFACE SOURCE 220
