A planning exercise gives us a manageable way to explore a change. A departure moves, a route deviates or a feed stops, and we can examine what the application shows the person reviewing it.
Aerlattice includes eight exercises covering traffic, weather, route detours, timing, radio contention and monitoring incidents. They provide a starting point for exploring the application’s workflow.
Follow the sequence over time
The shared exercise clock makes timing visible. Users can follow recorded or simulated positions and review alerts for deviations, feed loss and projected collisions.
This allows a discussion to move beyond a single screenshot. When did the situation change? What information was available then? Did the proposed replacement address the finding, and what needed review before it could replace the accepted plan?
Replacement routes remain drafts for a person to consider. The exercise therefore includes the decision process as well as the movement of aircraft.
Keep a record you can revisit
Plans, assessments, decisions and recordings stay together in the local workspace. Replaying an exercise can help someone look more closely at a moment they missed or explain a decision to another reviewer.
The core planning and exercise workflow runs offline.
Know what an exercise demonstrates
A supplied scenario shows behaviour under one set of conditions. How the application performs in other settings, and how a team would use it during an operation, are learned there. That distinction lets us take from the demonstrator what it can show.
