DEVICE INTENDED FOR AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS TO ASSIST TRACKING OF AIRCRAFT ASCENTS AND DESCENTS

摘要

The device, intended for air traffic controllers and for assisting the tracking of aircraft ascents and descents, includes: a means for receiving data transmitted by an aircraft, said data including at least the spatial position of the aircraft and requests that are optionally transmitted by the crew; a display making it possible to display the path of a moving aircraft with a view to returning to a first altitude; and a means for giving the aircraft crew permission to reach a second altitude. The device includes an alarm manager that is configurable according to at least one aircraft flight condition calculated on the basis of the first altitude, thus enabling transmission of an alarm at a point in time when the condition is fulfilled.
