Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for validating at least one position stored in a database of an aircraft comprising a satellite positioning system, the database containing at least one radionavigation beacon position, a runway threshold position, and a displaced runway threshold position on a runway, on which the aircraft is intended to land, the validation of said at least one position comprising a consistency check between at least:
a signal received by the aircraft from a radionavigation beacon associated with said at least one position, and
the position of the aircraft provided by the satellite positioning system, and
the value of the position stored in the database.
a signal received by the aircraft from a radionavigation beacon associated with said at least one position, and
the position of the aircraft provided by the satellite positioning system, and
the value of the position stored in the database.
