FLIGHT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
• FMS CONSISTS OF A COMPUTER AND CDU.
 ACARS works with FMS closely
 The purpose of FMCS in conjunction with other interfacing
equipment such as Auto Flight System , Electronic Flight
Instrument System , and Auto throttle system is to provide
the flight crew with fully automatic, full flight regime
control of lateral navigation , vertical guidance and thrust
management, map display , autopilot commands, and
flight performance optimization.
 This combination of interfacing equipment is called FMS
Flight Management System programming:
Pilots should make maximum use of the FMS
capabilities to monitor the operation and operate
the flight as efficiency as possible
The quality of the information entered in FMS
maximize its usefulness and improve safety while
reducing cost
Accurate programming for long range flight is
more critical

Items which should be inserted in FMS accurately :
Departure runway
Standard Instrument Departure
Speed limit during climb
Route of flight
Planned altitude
Cruise wind and temperature at different points
Top of descent wind
Speed limit during descent
Standard Terminal Arrival Route
Instrument approach
Landing runway
Destination wind and temperature
Cost index

Is the ratio between the cost of the time versus the cost of fuel
The higher mach No. flying increases the fuel burn but the time is lower
and conversely
Establishing a proper Cost Index for each aircraft type for a specific
airline is critical
Commercial department should calculate proper cost index for each
flight
Example :
Crew cost
$7/min
Incremental maintenance $ 15/min
Total time cost
$22/min
Fuel cost
$0.6/kg
22 divided by 0.6 equals to cost index of 37
If we put this number into the FMS it gives us cost saving speed
during all phases of flight

The followings should be inserted in FMS
Cruising altitude
Top of descent wind and temperature
Lower altitude wind if available
Descent speed
Altitude and speed restriction for the first point
Proper STAR and APPROACH
Runway in use
Wind and temperature for that runway

The essential target is the elimination of DRAG in all its form
Inspection of pneumatic manifolds , throttle, air cycle
machine, auto pilot, aileron , spoiler control , wing leading edge
, leading edge flap, slats, rough surfaces, flight control seal
integrity, rudder control , flap system all control surfaces, fuel
tank indication, fuel tank, hydraulics system, fuel system, drain
systems, wheel well doors, cabin and cargo doors, aircraft
fuselage, antennas , cockpit windshield, engine cowling

A good flight planning includes selection of:
-Safest routes
-More economic routes
-Shortest routes
Concerning: route structure ,route availability,
limitations ,NOTAMS, MEL items, overfly fees, etc….
Proper and up to date data should be inserted in the
flight plan.
Crew uses these data for Flight Management System
programming
WHERE POSSIBLE AND PRACTICABLE
