FACILITATING CAPTURING AIRCRAFT FLIGHT SEGMENT

Abstract:

Systems, computer-implemented methods and/or computer program products that facilitate capturing aircraft flight segment are provided. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method comprises: respectively providing, by a mobile computing device comprising a processor, data sets, wherein the data sets include operation, location, altitude, speed, orientation, vibration data and noise data of an aircraft; classifying, by the mobile computing device, the data sets into current flight segment, state of aircraft engine and type of engine; and generating, by the mobile computing device, a visualization regarding the current flight segment, the state of aircraft engine and the type of engine. In another embodiment, a computer-implemented method comprises: performing, by a system operatively coupled to a processor, an Internet search and aggregates historical flight information relevant to a user to determine at least one of: user lifetime air mileage, flight segments traveled, aircraft traveled, engine usage, statistics on cruise speeds, altitudes or frequent flyer miles; and scanning, by the system, the Internet search for live information displayed via social media or news outlets that is relevant to the user's travel history.
