Abstract: A method for securing a provisional aircraft itinerary with respect to potential threats associated with geographical coordinates, according to which the provisional itinerary includes geographical coordinates of waypoints, two successive waypoints defining an anticipated route segment with the two waypoints as ends, the method comprising carrying out a first risk detection, as a function of at least the geographical coordinates of the ends of each segment between two waypoints and threats to identify potentially at-risk (segment, threat) pairs, wherein each segment is split into segment sections, and carrying out a second risk detection for each pair, in order, based on at least the geographical coordinates of the sections of the segment of the pair and at least the geographical coordinates of the threat of the pair, to determine whether the threat is confirmed as presenting a collision risk with the segment.

Abstract: A method for monitoring the flight trajectory of an aircraft comprises the steps reiterated in time consisting in receiving and comparing two trajectory objects, the trajectory objects being associated with two initially identical flight trajectories determined independently of each other over time; and, in case of difference between the two trajectory objects, determining a failed trajectory from the two flight trajectories by comparison with the last known state without fault, the last known state without fault corresponding to two identical trajectory objects. Developments describe the use of flight plan segments, of signatures, fault isolation simultaneously to a change of current leg, the use of levels of operational safety according to an RNP-AR procedure and the notification of the pilot of the trajectory determined as having failed. Software and system aspects are also described.

Abstract: A method for processing an error when performing a predetermined avionics procedure, related computer program and detection and alert system is disclosed. In one aspect, the method is carried out automatically by the detection and alert system of an aircraft, the method including monitoring the operation of one or several avionics device(s) of the aircraft, the monitoring based on the tracking of a sequence representative of the predetermined avionics procedure being carried out. The method further includes: detecting a break of the sequence due to an incorrect command and/or skipping of at least one expected command according to the predetermined avionics procedure being performed, and retrieving at least one piece of information representative of the break in the sequence.
