A method (400/500) for verifying flight information, comprising: retrieving (402/504) a first message comprising flight information associated with a flight that is to be input into a flight information system for an aircraft, wherein the flight information comprises status information that is tracked from a ground-based computer and/or messaging service comprising one or more of: an amount of fuel remaining, a weight of the aircraft , a wind speed, an air pressure reading, and/or the speed of the aircraft , and wherein the flight information system uses the flight information to maintain or adjust flight settings for the aircraft ; querying, subsequent to the flight information in the first message being input into the flight information system for the aircraft, the flight information system for the flight information that was inputted into the flight information system; receiving (404/506) a second message comprising the queried flight information associated with the flight that has been input into the flight information system based on the first message; verifying (406/508) that the flight information in the first message does not match the flight information in the second message when the flight information in the second message is not within a predetermined threshold of the flight information in the first message; and providing (408/512) a notification in response to verifying that the flight information in the first message does not match the flight information in the second message, the notification comprising times that the messages were sent and a status of the aircraft when the messages were sent. retrieving (402/504) a first message comprising flight information associated with a flight that is to be input into a flight information system for an aircraft, wherein the flight information comprises status information that is tracked from a ground-based computer and/or messaging service comprising one or more of: an amount of fuel remaining, a weight of the aircraft , a wind speed, an air pressure reading, and/or the speed of the aircraft , and wherein the flight information system uses the flight information to maintain or adjust flight settings for the aircraft ; querying, subsequent to the flight information in the first message being input into the flight information system for the aircraft, the flight information system for the flight information that was inputted into the flight information system; receiving (404/506) a second message comprising the queried flight information associated with the flight that has been input into the flight information system based on the first message; verifying (406/508) that the flight information in the first message does not match the flight information in the second message when the flight information in the second message is not within a predetermined threshold of the flight information in the first message; and providing (408/512) a notification in response to verifying that the flight information in the first message does not match the flight information in the second message, the notification comprising times that the messages were sent and a status of the aircraft when the messages were sent. <EOS>
