Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100152927METHOD AND DEVICE FOR OPTIMIZING THE FLIGHT OF AN AIRCRAFT - The invention relates to a method for optimizing the flight of an aircraft comprising a flight management system, the said flight management system using a first cost index (CI06-17-2010
20100161156DEVICE FOR ASSISTING IN THE CHOICE OF A DIVERSION AIRPORT - The invention relates to a device for assisting in the choice of a diversion airport for an aircraft piloted by a crew (06-24-2010
20100168936Method of Constructing a Vertical Profile in the Event of Depressurization in an Area with Risks and Associated Devices - The method of generating a secure flight plan portion in the event of depressurization corresponding to a time-conditioned descent profile that may include a succession of levels, comprises: 07-01-2010
20100198433Flight Management System with Optimization of the Lateral Flight Plan - Flight management system for aircraft comprising computation means capable of determining a gain or a loss in terms of flight time remaining to a point of arrival, and in terms of fuel consumption, following the input by an operator of a modification of an initial flight plan using the Direct To function. The computation means are capable of suggesting to the operator a modification of the lateral flight plan that procures an optimum gain. The flight management system also comprises a display interface capable of presenting to the operator the information concerning the gain or the loss in time and/or consumption, and of prompting the operator to accept or refuse the modification.08-05-2010
20100324812Method of short-term rejoining of a flight plan by radar guidance of an aircraft - Method of formulating a lateral flight trajectory for the rejoining by an aircraft (12-23-2010
20110082605AIRCRAFT PILOTING ASSISTANCE METHOD AND CORRESPONDING DEVICE - An aircraft piloting assistance method and system including determining at least one flyable slope with which the aircraft is assumed to be able to fly, based on a value of at least one flight parameter including the weight of the aircraft. The step for determining said slope or slopes with which the aircraft is able to fly, called flyable slopes is performed by a computer, and presenting the flyable slope to a decision-maker.04-07-2011
20110087428DEVICE FOR AIDING THE FLIGHT MANAGEMENT OF AN AIRCRAFT - A device for aiding the flight management of an aircraft includes a navigation display, a personalized database capable of storing navigation-aid data, each datum comprising a classification type representative of a family or of one or more categories of navigation-aid data, one or more periods of validity of the said datum, information relating to at least one geographic zone of the said datum, one graphic and/or textual representation of the said datum, selection means allowing an operator to choose one (or more) type(s) of classification, called selected type(s), extraction means capable of extracting from the personalized database the navigation-aid datum or data called extracted data of which the type is equal to at least one selected type, of which at least one geographic zone is situated at a distance, from the flight plan or from the aircraft, that is less than a predetermined maximum distance and of which at least one period of validity verifies a predefined display time criterion, the said extraction means transmitting the said extracted datum or data to the said navigation display capable of displaying the representations of the said extracted data.04-14-2011
20110137495Method for Assisting in Rejoining a Vertical Descent Trajectory and Associated Device - A method is provided for assisting in rejoining a vertical descent trajectory that an aircraft is assumed to have to follow, using a flight management system FMS embedded onboard the aircraft, and includes the following steps: calculation of a vertical deviation VDEV, in the vertical plane, between the aircraft and the vertical descent trajectory, and comparison between the vertical deviation VDEV and a predetermined deviation threshold SVDEV; when the vertical deviation VDEV reaches the deviation threshold SVDEV, a step during which the activation of an optimized mode for catching up on the vertical descent trajectory is authorized; if the optimized mode for catching up on the vertical descent trajectory is activated, piloting of the aircraft by the flight management system FMS in optimized catch-up mode, that is to say at minimum thrust with a target rejoining speed in level VCRP and a target rejoining speed in downward trajectory, the target rejoining speed in level VCRP being equal to the maximum L/D ratio speed of the aircraft uprated by a first value V06-09-2011
