| 20080288169 | Terrain Avoidance System for Transport Aircraft - This system accompanies the “Avoid terrain” type alarms indicating to the pilot that he has passed the limit-point of success of a standard vertical avoidance maneuver either with complementary indications such as the azimuth sectors suitable for a disengagement maneuver or a predefined disengagement path, or an automatic engagement of a predefined avoidance path. To determine the limit-point, it monitors a penetration of a model of the terrain being flown over into a first protection volume ( | 11-20-2008 |
| 20090138145 | METHOD OF PROTECTING AN AIRCRAFT BY SIGNALLING AGAINST THE RISKS OF COLLISION WITH THE TERRAIN IN PROCEDURES WITH REDUCED PROTECTION CORRIDOR WITH SPECIFIC FUNCTIONS - The present invention relates to a method of protecting an aircraft in approach by signalling against the risks of collision with the terrain in steep-sided environments, in order to avoid unwanted warnings emanating from the clearance sensors of the onboard TAWS system while protecting the aircraft when it fails to observe the published procedure, and this equally in a landing procedure and in a take-off procedure. The method includes conferring an additional function on the conventional TAWS functions, specific to the detection of the potential risks of collision of the aircraft with the terrain when following procedures of reduced protection corridor type, and this without modifying either the logics or the characteristics of the clearance sensor or sensors as currently defined in the TAWSs of the state of the art. | 05-28-2009 |
| 20090157241 | METHOD OF PROTECTING AN AIRCRAFT BY SIGNALLING AGAINST THE RISKS OF COLLISION WITH THE TERRAIN IN PROCEDURES WITH REDUCED PROTECTION CORRIDOR - The present invention relates to a method of protecting an aircraft in approach by signalling against the risks of collision with the terrain in steep-sided environments, in order to avoid unwanted warnings emanating from the clearance sensors of the onboard TAWS system while protecting the aircraft when it fails to observe the published procedure, and this equally in a landing procedure and in a take-off procedure, and it is characterized in that it consists in modifying the characteristics of the clearance sensors according to the position deviation of the aircraft relative to the imposed RNP trajectory. | 06-18-2009 |
| 20100042273 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR AIRCRAFT, FOR AVOIDING COLLISION WITH THE TERRAIN - This system accompanies the alarms of TAWS type and in particular the alarms of “Avoid terrain” type indicating to the pilot that he has passed the limit point of success of a standard vertical avoidance maneuver, indications ( | 02-18-2010 |
| 20100042312 | SYSTEM FOR SELECTIVE DISPLAY OF AIRPORT TRAFFIC INFORMATION - This system for displaying, on the flight deck of an aircraft travelling on the surface of an airport, an airport map mentioning the surface traffic, for the purpose of a taxiing aid and protection of the ground movements of the aircraft, shows on the airport map only the traffic occupying the airport thoroughfares close to the aircraft, this closeness being defined by the existence of a joining path comprising a number of thoroughfare sections that is less than an arbitrary limit of the order of 1 or 2. | 02-18-2010 |
| 20100052973 | Device and Method for Monitoring the Location of Aircraft on the Ground - The invention relates to a monitoring device and method allowing surveillance of the location and the displacement of an aircraft in relation to aircraft and/or craft on an airport displacement zone. | 03-04-2010 |
| 20100057276 | Method of Monitoring Atmospheric Areas for an Aircraft - The invention relates to a method and a device for monitoring risky atmospheric areas. | 03-04-2010 |
| 20110291861 | Device for Communication with an Aircraft - A device for assisting in understanding the traffic surrounding an aircraft during communications between aircraft with one or more ground control organizations performed via a digital data link set up on a frequency, each of the control organizations communicating and exchanging digital messages with a plurality of aircraft on said frequency, includes: reception means for the aircraft to receive the messages exchanged between the aircraft and the ground control organization on said frequency, means for storing the messages received by the aircraft and means for displaying all or some of the received messages. | 12-01-2011 |
