Abstract
A method for aiding the landing of an aircraft on a landing runway comprises the following steps implemented automatically by a processing unit: a) acquiring information relating to the runway; b) acquiring information relating to a current situation of the aircraft; i) determining a landing position of the aircraft on a central longitudinal axis of the runway, as a function of a trajectory determined between a current position of the aircraft and this landing position to comply with at least one constraint relating to a roll angle of the aircraft; j) determining a parameter relating to the landing position; k) determining a deviation between this parameter and a reference value; l) comparing this deviation with a predetermined threshold; and m) as a function of the result of the comparison carried out in step l), commanding, if appropriate, the signaling of an alert via the signaling system of the aircraft.
