Abstract
Apparatus and methods for assisting a flight crew with (e.g., pre-flight) functional testing of aircraft systems are disclosed. An aircraft condition can be used to select one or more functional tests that are applicable based on the aircraft condition. The aircraft condition can be used to initiate the execution of the one or more applicable selected functional tests. The aircraft condition can also be used to identify the one or more functional tests that are applicable on a display device so as to guide the flight crew during the execution of the functional tests.

-49. (canceled)
An apparatus for assisting with functional testing of systems of an aircraft, the apparatus comprising:
- one or more data processors;
- and
- non-transitory machine-readable memory operatively coupled to the one or more data processors, storing instructions executable by the one or more data processors and configured to cause the one or more data processors to:
- select, based on data indicative of a condition of the aircraft, two or more selected functional tests of respective two or more systems of the aircraft;
- and
- generate an output for initiating the two or more selected functional tests.
A computer-implemented method for assisting with functional testing of systems of an aircraft, the method comprising:
- receiving data indicative of a condition of the aircraft;
- selecting, based on the data indicative of the condition of the aircraft, two or more selected functional tests of respective two or more systems of the aircraft;
- and
- initiating the two or more selected functional tests.
A computer program product for assisting with functional testing of systems of an aircraft, the computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable storage medium containing program code, the program code being readable/executable by a computer, processor or logic circuit to perform a method comprising:
- receiving data indicative of a condition of the aircraft;
- selecting, based on the data indicative of the condition of the aircraft, two or more selected functional tests of respective two or more systems of the aircraft;
- and
- initiating the two or more selected functional tests.
