Problems solved by technology

In this case, the pilot has to perform performance calculations during the landing in order to select a new aiming point which must allow the landing to be performed in complete safety, which significantly increases the workload of the pilot and allows the risk of errors to remain

Embodiment Construction

[0054]According to the present invention and in the appended figure 1 The device 1 shown schematically in , is intended to assist the flight management of an aircraft AC during the landing phase at an airport. The aircraft AC may in particular be a civil or military aircraft, a passenger transport aircraft or a cargo aircraft.

[0055] Typically, during the landing phase of the airport runway 15, the aircraft AC follows the final approach path 16 (at figure 2 ), the final approach path 16 has a predetermined slope (typically 3°) and intersects the used runway 15 at aiming point (or touchdown point) P1i (downstream of runway 15 entrance 15A). In this case, the flight path 17 actually followed by the aircraft AC is superimposed on this path 16, up to the vicinity of the runway, passing over the entrance 15A at a predetermined altitude (at point P0i) (typically 50 feet), and then 15 shows a level before 18 touches.

[0056] According to the invention, said device 1 installed ...

Abstract

A method and apparatus for assisting in flight management of an aircraft during a landing phase. The device comprises means for automatically determining an adaptive aiming point (P1f) which is offset in the downstream direction along the runway (15) and which can be used by different common landing aids of the aircraft.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and a device to assist flight management of an aircraft, in particular a transport aircraft, during the landing phase at an airport. Background technique [0002] In the context of the present invention, the landing phase includes the approach phase and the touchdown of the aircraft wheels on the runway. [0003] It is known, usually according to standard procedures, that for landing, the aircraft descends from a starting descent altitude to a predetermined altitude (usually of the order of 3000 feet), while maintaining a constant speed. When it reaches this predetermined altitude, the aircraft decelerates downward to an intermediate speed. The aircraft then enters a landing alignment path corresponding to the airfield and runway used. The standard slope during the final approach was fixed at -3°. During this phase, the aircraft continues to decelerate while extending the slats, flaps, and landing gear in order to c...
