It is critical to determine the appropriate actions for safe landing of an aircraft in an emergency situation. An expert system can be very useful for this purpose. An expert system specifically for jet fighter $F-igcircigcirc$ has been developed. Its knowledge base contains the standard procedures provided by various flight manuals and the expertise of human specialists such as pilots and emergency management personnels. Advising procedures are represented by an IF-THEN format in the developed rule-based expert system. Advises are provided in real time during the entire flight processes of ground, takeoff, inflight, and landing. The developed system would significantly increase the survivability of pilots and aircraft, while decreasing operational costs of emergency management personnels. By modifying the knowledge base, the developed system can also be applied to other types of aircrafts including civilian airlines.
