Abstract
The system includes a plurality of engines that generate a thrust of an aircraft, each of the engines controlled by a first controllable actuator. A plurality of brakes reduce the speed of the aircraft when it is taxiing, each of the brakes controlled by a second controllable actuator. A control unit generates a piloting setpoint that relates to the longitudinal behavior of the aircraft. A central processing unit automatically determines, from the piloting setpoint, a plurality of individual control commands that are applied automatically to the first and second actuators and used to satisfy the piloting setpoint and a usage objective for the actuators.
