Abstract

Aircraft enhanced vision system, equipped with an inconsistency detection system and corresponding method The system includes a display (36), and an inconsistency detection system between a displayed position of a synthetic representation (41) and the actual position on the display (36) of a landing strip (13) and / or an approach ramp (15).The inconsistency detection system comprises: - a module for identifying a line of lights (17) extending transversely across the runway (13); - a system for characterizing the identified line of lights (17) to determine a specific position of the line of lights (17) relative to the runway (13) from among a plurality of possible positions extending transversely across the runway (13); - a calculation module configured to calculate an actual position on the display (36) of the runway (13) and / or the approach ramp (15) using the determined position of the line of lights (17). See Figure 11 for abbreviations.
