For example, an over-water flight of longer than a specific duration may require the flight plan to include reserve fuel.

Because it is accepted by most airlines and backed by IATA it simplifies the sharing of data between airlines, airports, reservation systems and many other aviation entities. The SSIM format includes structured data elements such as flight numbers, departure and arrival times, airport codes, aircraft types, and other information.
The successful first flight was not followed up, due to the ungainliness of the composite in takeoff and its vulnerability in flight. From 1921, a series of types were adapted as carriers for gliders used as aerial targets. The Short Mayo Composite mailplane comprised the S.21 Maia carrier flying boat and S.20 Mercury parasite seaplane. It made ...
A SID clearance is issued to the pilot based on a combination of the destination, the first waypoint in the flight plan, and the takeoff runway used. A standard instrument departure procedure consists of a number of waypoints or fixes, which may either be given by their geographical coordinates or be defined by radio beacons , such as VOR or ...
