Abstract: A method for assembling aircraft panels by welding improves the flexibility thereof. Panels are butted together along longitudinal joining lines and fixed to one another via their longitudinal edges by welding without the longitudinal ends of their welded edges being connected to one another. Longitudinal hoops are fixed to partially cover the concave surface of the panels at least partially at the ends. The absence of welding at the ends introduces the desired flexibility. The disclosure also covers the fuselage portions formed by assembling panels according to this method and the aircraft including such portions.

Abstract: An aircraft including at least one system rack positioned under a floor and including a series of vertical first uprights, distributed in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft. The aircraft includes at least a first upper connecting system connecting at least one of the first uprights and a rail of the floor oriented parallel to the longitudinal axis. In so far as the first uprights of the system rack are not connected to the crossbeams of the floor, they can be positioned irrespective of the position of the crossbeams, and this contributes to simplifying the design of the system racks and allows these to be standardized.

Abstract: A rudder bar includes a main module provided at least with pedals and with all the elements subject to maintenance, the main module being one-piece and detachable relative to a support frame integrated into the floor of the cockpit of the aircraft, so as to exhibit significant flexibility with respect to its maintainability, particularly in the event of the failure of a component, by allowing quick intervention both on a local level and an overall level.

Abstract: A side console for an aircraft cockpit includes a structure for mounting of an item of aircraft equipment and a complementary structure. The mounting structure and the complementary structure are formed of single-piece components articulated about an axis of articulation between a storage position in which the single-piece components are more or less folded against one another, and a position of installation in which the single-piece components extend respectively in substantially mutually perpendicular planes.

Abstract: An aircraft control of the rudder bar type, which includes a box-shaped pedal, a support, a first rotation shaft connecting the pedal to the support with a first rotation axis, a first pivot connection configured to allow the pedal to pivot about the first rotation axis relative to the support, a rod, a second rotation shaft, distinct from the first rotation shaft and connecting the pedal to the rod with a second rotation axis, and a second pivot connection configured so as to allow the pedal and/or the rod to pivot about the second rotation axis.

Abstract: In order to facilitate the thermoacoustic insulation of an aircraft portion, a method for manufacturing a thermoacoustic insulation module for an aircraft comprises a step of providing a mat configured to provide thermoacoustic insulation of an aircraft portion, followed by a step of attaching a bendable structure to the mat, followed by a step of bending the bendable structure, along a bending axis parallel to a longitudinal direction of the mat, such that the bendable structure forms a load-bearing structure supporting the mat in a curved shape.

Abstract: In order to facilitate the thermoacoustic insulation of an aircraft portion, a thermoacoustic insulation module for an aircraft comprises a mat and a load-bearing structure detachably attached to the mat and supporting the mat in a curved shape, with an axis of curvature parallel to a longitudinal direction of the mat. A thermoacoustic insulation method for insulating an aircraft portion comprises a step of inserting the thermoacoustic insulation module into the aircraft portion, followed by a step of detaching the mat from the load-bearing structure, followed by a step of attaching the mat to an aircraft structure delimiting the aircraft portion, followed by a step of removing the load-bearing structure from the aircraft portion.

Abstract: To facilitate the thermophonic insulation of an aircraft section, a method comprises engaging first respective parts of flexible structures, respectively connected to two flat mattresses, with a support device, by leaving free respective second parts of the flexible structures arranged at a distance from the first parts, then curving the two mattresses, by virtue of the mutual bringing together of the second parts, then inserting the support device into the aircraft section, and detaching each mattress from the support device and fixing each mattress to an aircraft structure delimiting the aircraft section.
