The invention discloses a geometric-programming-based gliding aircraft terminal area energy management trajectory planning method which is used for solving the technical problem that an existing gliding aircraft terminal area energy management trajectory planning method is poor in practicability. According to the technical scheme, on the basis of the state of an aircraft entering a TAEM section, a geometric programming method is utilized for rapidly planning a reasonable and feasible TAEM plane trajectory; on the basis of the TAEM plane trajectory planning, height deduction is performed, and therefore a complete trajectory planning strategy is given. Due to the fact that the aircraft enters an entry of an automatic landing section in a spiral-line mode in the geographic planning process, the sudden overload change phenomenon is effectively avoided, and therefore the requirement for the aircraft maneuverability is lowered; meanwhile, during trajectory planning, the state of the aircraft at the TAEM section at the initial moment is considered, corresponding flight paths are planned in a classified mode for the entering state of the aircraft, the reasonable trajectory can be rapidly planned, the requirements for different entering directions are met, and the planning speed is high through simulation verification.
