GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

Entered by: Conor McAuley

French to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Aerospace / Aviation / Space / aircraft status
French term or phrase: contexte de mission
Context:
une interface de saisie et/ou de chargement d’un contexte de mission contenant des données de contexte de mission d’au moins une mission à venir de l’aéronef.

Is mission aims OK for this or am I missing something?
TIA Chris.

trip context
Explanation:

Unfortunately "context" is unavoidable.

Not flight, because a "mission" would be a round-trip, or several in one day (ref. Ryanair), or even a roundabout trip starting and ending at the aircraft's home airport -- thus trip and not flight.

Not assignment either.

Predetermined flight list (data)


Explanation:
I'm basing this on my reference and the passage

Une mission d’avion consiste à effectuer une liste prédéfinie de vols sous certaines conditions opérationnelles et de maintenance.

You could add more of the above into the translation but tthen it's not so much a translation as a definition

disagree  Daryo: "flight list" = list of passengers [on one flight] or = list of all flights on a given day to / from a given airport or by a given airline (+ possibly few other possible meanings - didn't have time for more digging) - too vague.

  -> Too vague ??? Well, the question was "contexte de mission" which is vague too. The explanation is in the reference material and I said you could add more to the translation but then it would be a definition
agree  philgoddard: I gave up trying to hack my way through Daryo's jungle of eccentric punctuation, but he/she seems to be suggesting that a flight list is a passenger list, which is nonsense.

neutral  Daryo: not convinced that all and any "mission" is a round-trip // more likely "une mission" = one or more successive flights between two periods where airplane is parked on the ground, in the same OR a different airport.
6 hrs
  -> "Not flight, because a "mission" would be a round-trip, or ***several in one day***" or in more than one day.
