Abstract
A process and device for detecting on an aircraft an overshoot of design loads at the level of a structural part of the aircraft. The detection device includes a speed measuring device for measuring an effective speed of the aircraft. A first comparator compares the measured effective speed with a maximum speed relating to the current flight configuration of the aircraft. A vertical load measuring device measures a vertical load factor of the aircraft, and a second comparator compares the measured vertical load factor with a limit value of the vertical load factor. An inspection determining device determines whether a structural inspection needs to be performed at the level of the structural part, based of the results of the first and second comparisons.
