    Generally, a flight navigator is responsible for planning the course that will take an aircraft to a location in the least amount of time without compromising its safety and that of its passengers. A flight navigator also has to keep the plane on course once in the air. And that aspect of the job has not changed. They are still responsible for getting a plane from one point on the map to another. Navigators today rely on global positioning systems and inertial navigation systems. They just have to punch in the coordinates of where they want to go, and most planes today can get there almost without any human help. The basic eligibility

    A flight navigator is often in charge of charting a path that will get an aircraft to its destination in the shortest period of time without endangering its passengers. After the plane is in the air, the flight navigator must maintain the jet's path. And nothing has changed in that area of the work. They are still in charge of arranging for a JET to travel from one location on the map to another. Most modern planes can arrive nearly entirely on their own; all they need to do is enter the coordinates of the destination. One needs a Bachelor's degree in aircraft operations, aviation, aeronautical engineering, or a closely related discipl
