METHOD AND DEVICE FOR AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGING AUTOMATED EMERGENCY DESCENT OF AN AIRCRAFT

摘要

The device (1) comprises a unit (11) for generating at least one engagement threshold for adapting an engagement threshold depending on the terrain, said engagement threshold corresponding to the sum of a terrain altitude; and a predetermined margin, a monitoring unit (5) for automatically comparing a current cabin altitude of the aircraft to said engagement threshold, and an activation unit (6) for automatically engaging an automated emergency descent when the current cabin altitude reaches said commitment threshold.
