A device for determining a maximum lateral separation of a follower craft with respect to a lead craft. The device includes a first unit for deducing automatically from minimum turning radii of a lead craft and from a maximum turning radius of a follower craft, the maximum possible lateral separation of the follower craft with respect to the lead craft, on each side of the trajectory of the latter.

A method and device for determining the lateral path of a moving body determine, from a first lateral path and a lateral distance dependent on external visibility, a second lateral path corresponding to a lateral flight path that is followed by the moving body.

Method and device for determining the lateral path of a moving body, in particular of an aircraft

System for displaying on a first moving object a position indication dependent on a position of a second moving object. The system () comprises measurement means () for carrying out position measurements relating to at least one position dependent on the second moving object, processing means () mounted on the first moving object, and connected to the measurement means (), and intended for the processing of said position measurements so as to produce a characteristic position, a display device () mounted on the first moving object, connected to the processing means (), and presenting on a viewing screen (), on a display illustrating at least partially the environment of the first moving object, a position indication which is situated at said characteristic position, and triggering means () for triggering the implementation of measurements by said measurement means ().
