Zusammenfassung:A method and apparatus for managing a flight of an aircraft. Conditions in an environment around the aircraft are monitored during the flight of the aircraft. In response to detecting a number of changes in the environment around the aircraft, determining whether the changes affect a current route. If so, a determination is then made as to whether the aircraft has the capability to make changes to the route in response to the number of changes in the environment.
