1. An airline operations control system for an airline having multiple aircraft and multiple routes formed by one or more flights, which are implemented by the aircraft flying the flights forming the routes, the system comprising: a computer searchable database comprising aircraft data, aircraft status data, route data, and maintenance data provided on a storage medium of a computer; a query module having at least one input, where the at least one input comprises at least one of the following: immediately repair the failure, delay the repair, delay the flight, cancel the flight, and swap the aircraft, and where the query module is configured to query the database for and output stable operating solutions that ensure completion of the multiple routes based on at least one failure of at least one aircraft flying one of the routes, wherein the query module is executed on a computer configured to access the database; and a prognostic module configured to continuously execute the query module while varying the at least one input and generate “what if” scenarios for the operation of the airline where the prognostic module executes a separate query for each of the aircraft to form a dedicated thread for each aircraft.
