A method for using an Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) located on an aircraft to communicate with a remote aircraft system data communications unit concerning aircraft systems problems and malfunctions, is disclosed. The method may include receiving aircraft systems data from one or more aircraft systems, identifying any problems or malfunctions in the aircraft systems, automatically communicating any identified problems or malfunctions in the aircraft systems to the remote aircraft system data communications unit, receiving information concerning a solution to the identified problems or malfunctions in the aircraft systems from the remote aircraft system data communications unit, and implementing the solution to the identified problems or malfunctions in the aircraft systems.

Method and apparatus for remote e-Enabled aircraft solution management using an electronic flight bag (EFB)

A method for using an Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) located on an aircraft to communicate Flight Operations Quality Assurance (FOQA) data to a remote aircraft flight data collection unit is provided. The method is directed to receiving FOQA data from one or more aircraft systems with an EFB on an aircraft while the aircraft is in-flight, and automatically transmitting the received FOQA data from the EFB to a remote aircraft flight data collection unit for analysis.
