Could you build this?

No Commercial aviation flight operations software requires stringent DO-178C/FAA/EASA software compliance, certified aeronautical data ingestion, and mission-critical safety guarantees.

What it would actually take: This system requires ingesting ARINC 424 navigation data, live FAA/ICAO NOTAM feeds, and METAR/TAF weather feeds, mapped against official Aircraft Flight Manual (AFM) performance charts. The compute engine must perform deterministic safety-critical computations for weight and balance, runway takeoff/landing performance (takeoff field length, obstacle clearance), and dispatch release generation adhering to Part 121 regulations.
