The report describes the current functions of flight operations management at typical United States' airlines. It emphasizes the role of dispatchers and their interactions with air traffic management (ATM) and the aircraft. These functions and interactions, collectively referred to as airline operations control (AOC), are described for different-sized airlines. The goals of this report are: (1) To provide greater understanding, in the aviation industry, in the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and in other government agencies, of the functioning, needs and requirements of AOCs; and (2) To emphasize AOC needs in the evolution of ATM automation and the design of aircraft Flight Management Systems (FMSs) intended to interact with the AOC and ATM. This information provides part of the baseline for the Flight Management System (FMS) - ATM Next Generation (FANG) project to identify the functional capabilities required to implement an integrated FMS-ATM-AOC system.
