A method and device for automatically estimating a degradation in fuel consumption and in drag of an aircraft. The device comprises a device for calculating a numerical value of the effect of a degradation in performance on the fuel consumption and/or the drag of the aircraft, and an arrangement for displaying this numerical value on a screen in the cockpit of the aircraft.

A trajectory analysis device automatically determines an auxiliary takeoff trajectory including a curvilinear lateral profile, which allows to maximize the takeoff weight of the aircraft. To this end, the device includes an initial data generation device, an auxiliary takeoff trajectory determination device, and a display device. The crew of the aircraft may then review the optimized auxiliary takeoff trajectory.

A method for checking takeoff or landing parameters of an aircraft including a step of determining takeoff or landing parameters on the basis of a series of input conditions. The method includes steps of calculating regulatory data on the basis of determined takeoff or landing parameters; and of comparing the calculated regulatory data with predefined threshold values, with a view to establishing whether the determined takeoff or landing parameters are valid or invalid.
