| Abstract: | An unheralded development in aviation technology has been the evolution of aircraft control system which enable pilots to engage, in real-time, in the cost management of aircraft operations. Drawing on the specialist aviation literature, the authors examine the properties of, and potential behavioural problems associated with, the cost-minimization "menus" provided in the flight management (cockpit computer) systems of modern commercial airlines. |
