Systems are provided for providing distributed flight management capability for flight management systems (FMS) of a fleet of aircraft. The system comprises an FMS located on board and electronically integrated into the avionics system of each of the aircraft in the fleet. The system also has a digital twin FMS that contains identical software components and capabilities of the FMS. The digital twin FMS is located off board the aircraft and is in communication with each of the FMSs via a digital communications link. The digital twin FMS is configured to provide pre-flight planning for each aircraft that is dispatched to each FMS via the digital communications link.
