Abstract: An aircraft includes a structure exhibiting a median plane XZ and including a fuselage, a fixed vertical stabilizer at the rear of the fuselage, an adjustable horizontal stabilizer rotatably mounted about a horizontal axis on a first section of the structure, and extending on either side of the median plane XZ, and at the rear, two elevators mounted rotatably about a horizontal axis on a second section of the structure on either side of the median plane XZ independently of the adjustable horizontal stabilizer. In an aircraft of this kind, the elevators no longer have any impact on the adjustable horizontal stabilizer, which allows, among other things, the dimensions of the adjustable horizontal stabilizer, and also of the actuator operating them, to be reduced.

Abstract: A taxiing system for an aircraft including an undercarriage having a wheel, includes an electric motor associated with the wheel, an electric controller of the electric motor, connected to an output of an electrical power supply, and a taxiing control computer configured to determine control instructions for the electric motor and to transmit these instructions to the electric controller. The taxiing control computer is configured to receive braking of the aircraft commands during the taxiing of the aircraft and to determine control instructions for the electric motor corresponding to operation of the motor in generator mode when it receives a braking command. The electric controller is connected to an energy absorber making it possible to absorb the electric energy produced by the electric motor when the latter is operating in generator mode.

Abstract: In a communications network including aircraft in flight and at least one ground station, which constitute communication nodes of the network, data are transmitted from a source node to a destination node following a non-predetermined path through the network that includes at least one node which is a so-called intermediate aircraft. Before transmitting data from a transmitting node to at least one receiving node, it envisages a step of selecting the receiving node defining a portion of the path without knowledge of the next portion of the path.

Abstract: A system with attachment clips designed to fix an attachment element of an aircraft fuselage frame onto a fuselage skin and/or to stiffeners fitted onto this fuselage skin is provided. The system includes tooling elements arranged alternately with the clips such that they connect to each other, in order to reduce the fabrication time and cost of an aircraft fuselage.

Abstract: A control system and method enabling comparison of first and second character strings, the control system comprising a first source of information supplying the first string and a second source of information embedded in an aircraft and supplying the second string. A first processing module can model the first character string, each first character string character divided into a given number H×W of standardized elements comprising sign elements and background elements. The first processing module can transform each character into a standardized image. A second processing module can model the second character string, each character divided into H×W standardized elements comprising sign elements and background elements, and can transform each character into a standardized image in which each standardized element is associated with a comparison code. A comparison module can load the first string into the first module and load the second string into the second module for processing.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for managing aircraft radiofrequency communications on board an aircraft are disclosed. In some aspects, a method can include determining at least one communication frequency, the at least one communication frequency corresponding to a communication center within a radio horizon of the aircraft, displaying the at least one communication frequency at an interface, and where there is more than one communication frequency displayed on the interface: filtering the more than one communication frequency according to a flight step of the aircraft in order to reduce a number of the more than one communication frequency displayed on the interface, and sorting the more than one communication frequency according to occupation rate in order to prioritize the more than one communication frequency displayed on the interface, and thereby aid in predicting a communication frequency communicated to the aircraft.
