Abstract
The system for securing an aircraft flight plan has a flight management system delivering: a flight plan and points comprising passage setpoints in terms of speed, altitude and time; an avionics computer; at least one resource for storing environmental data constituting a hazard for the aircraft; a performance model of the aircraft defining limiting flight conditions according to the performance capabilities of said aircraft; at least one resource for processing the aircraft's avoidance trajectories. It makes it possible, based on a sampling of points of the flight plan, to calculate a set of avoidance trajectories and correlate them with the environmental data in order to detect the engagement points requiring a corrective maneuver.
