Abstract
A method may include detecting (400), during a flight of an aircraft system, a conflict with a planned route of the aircraft system, determining (402) one or more alternate routes for the aircraft system to avoid the conflict, wherein each of the one or more alternate routes avoid secondary conflicts with active flight operations, transmitting (412) first data to cause first visual information indicating the conflict and second visual information indicating the one or more alternate routes to be displayed to a user, receiving (414) second data indicating one of the one or more alternate routes being selected by the user, and updating (416) the planned route of the aircraft system to include the alternate route selected by the user.
