What encompasses all the specified information regarding a flight by an aircraft?

The flight plan is a comprehensive document that includes all relevant details necessary for the safe and efficient operation of a flight. This document typically outlines the intended route, departure and arrival airports, altitudes, estimated departure and arrival times, and the type of aircraft being used. It serves multiple purposes, such as allowing air traffic control to manage air traffic effectively, ensuring that the flight is conducted according to regulations, and providing critical information in the event of an emergency.

While air traffic instructions provide guidance for aircraft during flight, they do not encompass all the information related to the journey in advance. Navigation logs offer data about the path taken during the flight but do not include pre-flight details. Weather briefings provide important information about atmospheric conditions but are only one aspect of flight operation and do not include operational route planning or other particulars represented in a flight plan.
