Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for piloting a multi-engine aircraft (1) having an asymmetric operating mode during which at least one engine (10) is an active engine regulated by a control system (55), developing a non-zero active engine power that contributes to the rotation of a rotor (5), and at least one engine (10) is a passive engine in standby mode. During the asymmetric operating mode, the method comprises the following steps: - detection, with the control system (55), of operation of the engine (2) in a risky flight phase preceding a flight phase unfavorable to exiting the asymmetric operating mode; - following said detection of operation of the engine (2) in the risky flight phase, reactivation of the passive engine.
