Abstract

This method makes it possible to generate a resulting setpoint trajectory of an aircraft, a guiding system controlling the trajectory of the aircraft relative to the resulting setpoint trajectory. The generating method is implemented by an electronic device and comprises selecting at least one mode from among several operating modes, acquiring a setpoint trajectory prepared by a flight management system, obtaining an alternative setpoint trajectory from an element from among a module for computing a trajectory and an external generating system, and generating the resulting setpoint trajectory, which includes one or several segments of the alternative setpoint trajectory for the period of time corresponding to the selection of another mode.
