Equivalent Terms: System Operations Centre (SOC), Flight Control, CCO (French or Spanish) Operational Flight Plan (OFP)
The operator’s plan for the safe conduct of the flight based on considerations of aircraft performance, other operating limitations and relevant expected conditions on the route to be followed and at the aerodromes concerned.
An OFP is completed for every intended flight, approved and signed by the pilot-in-command and, where applicable, signed by the flight operations officer/flight dispatcher. A copy of the OFP is typically filed with the operator or a designated agent, left with the aerodrome authority or left on record in a suitable place at the point of departure.
