1 Introduction
Crew Group
This topic covers the Crew group on the Plan Screen. You will learn how each option in the group is used by the N-FP system.
We estimate that this will take 3 minutes to complete.
2 Detailed Explanation
Crew group
The Crew group on
the Plan screen allows you to enter information on the crew
being utilized for the flight in question.
It also
displays the Signatory label (the currently logged in user's
auto-signature), provided that N-FP is configured to do so.
Contact Support to
configure this feature. Once configured, the auto-signature also
appears on the formatted flight plan.
These steps show you how to add crew members and their rank to to a flight.
Click the
dropdown button in the Crew group.
Click
the CPT list
item.
Select a rank for the crew member.
Choices for rank are:
■ Dispatcher (DXR)
■ Captain (CPT)
■ First Officer (FO)
■ Second Officer (SO)
■ Navigator (NAV)
■ Flight Engineer (FE)
■ Load Master (LM)
■ Purser (PR)
■ Reserve Officer (RO)
■ Senior Flight Attendant (SA)

■ Jump Seater (JS)
■ Maintenance (MX)
■ Additional Crew Member (ACM)
■ Supernumerary Crew (SNM)

The OBS and DH designations are not available in the FOMS 160 Flight Operations Personnel as crew members do not hold these as qualifications. You can manually add in a crew member with these codes or the system can be configured to read this information from AIMS Crew Integration. A format change is required if you want to add these designators to your flight plan. Contact Support for more information.
