1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having logic stored thereon that, in response to execution by one or more processors of a restriction management system, causes the restriction management system to perform actions for automatically generating notifications of flight restrictions, the actions comprising:
receiving, by the restriction management system, flight plan information, wherein the flight plan information includes a planned flight area and a planned flight period of time;
querying, by the restriction management system, a restriction data store to retrieve an initial set of restriction definitions relevant to the flight plan information;
generating, by the restriction management system, information for presenting a checklist based on a comparison of restriction definitions from the initial set of restriction definitions to a set of checklist items; and
transmitting, by the restriction management system, the information for presenting the checklist to a user device for presentation;
re-querying, by the restriction management system, the restriction data store to retrieve an updated set of restriction definitions relevant to the flight plan information;
comparing, by the restriction management system, the updated set of restriction definitions to the initial set of restriction definitions;
periodically repeating at least the re-querying and comparing actions at a rate that increases over time up to the planned flight period of time;
in response to detecting a difference between the updated set of restriction definitions and the initial set of restriction definitions, transmitting, by the restriction management system, a notification to the user device; and
in response to detecting a failed checklist item:
automatically transmitting, by the restriction management system, a command to an aircraft associated with the flight plan information, to cause the aircraft to maneuver to address the failed checklist item.
