A method for monitoring aircraft operation status comprising the steps of transmitting aircraft operation data from an on-board monitoring system of an aircraft while in a cruising phase of flight in at least one of a continuous transmission and a batched transmission while in flight and receiving aircraft operation data in the form of at least one of the continuous transmission and the batched transmission from the aircraft in flight, the form of the aircraft operation data being responsive to at least one of phase of flight, network traffic across a communication device associated with the aircraft, or network traffic across a network associated with the aircraft. The method further comprises identifying the aircraft associated with the aircraft operation data and recording the aircraft operation data to an aircraft database.

System for automated recording of aircraft flight and maintenance information and associated methods

A method for monitoring aircraft operation status comprising receiving aircraft operation data, identifying an aircraft associated with the aircraft operation data, recording the aircraft operation data to an aircraft database, and determining whether the aircraft operation data complies with rules governing aircraft operation. Upon determining the aircraft operation data complies with the rules governing aircraft operation, the compliance is recorded to the aircraft database. Upon determining the aircraft operation data comprises a non-compliance, a non-compliant aircraft system or component associated with the non-compliance is identified, the non-compliance to the aircraft database is recorded, and an action responsive to the non-compliance is performed.
