Abstract

An automated optimization system for generating training plans for airline pilots covering both pilot transitions and assignment to training classes for pilots who have received a system bid award, wherein such training plans are generated in less than one hour by first solving a MIP Model of the training/transition problem with an LP relaxation to determine a first level of feasibility, and then solving the MIP Model for an optimized feasible solution from which the training plan is derived.
