Abstract
Method for generating a flight speed profile of an aircraft () according to an RTA constraint, characterized in that it permanently calculates, at any point of the flight plan, a speed setpoint V(X) of the aircraft determined on the basis of reference speed profiles, comprising at least a minimum speed profile V(X), and a maximum speed profile V(X). The method can also take into account an optimum speed profile V(X) determined, for example, on the basis of a cost or performance index.
