A method for assisting the piloting of an aircraft landing on a runway comprising determining current flight conditions of the aircraft, determining, with the help of the current flight conditions, the following distances between projections, in a horizontal plane, of the current position of the aircraft and a position of contact with the ground: a minimum approach distance; a standard approach distance; and a distance to destination according to a predetermined flight path. The method includes placing the three distances in order according to their respective values, and displaying, along a scale of a screen in the aircraft cockpit, a first, a second and a third symbol respectively associated with the minimum approach distance, with the standard approach distance and with the distance to destination, these three symbols being placed in order on the scale according to the order of the distances with which they are associated.

Method and system for assisting the piloting of an aircraft

The device comprises a flight management system which comprises means for generating requests, for requesting the results of performance functions and a performance function server which is external with respect to the flight management system and comprises means for calculating predictions which are capable of processing the requests and transmitting the results to the flight management system.

Method and device for calculating predictions on a flight plan of an aircraft

A piloting system including a performance functions server which is linked to all the computers of the piloting system, which hosts all the performance functions of the piloting system and which is able to supply the results of performance functions to at least said computers of the piloting system.
