Abstract: This electronic configuration assist device of a flight of an aircraft includes: an acquisition module configured to acquire a flight modality, previously selected by a user from a set of predefined flight modalities; a determination module configured to determine a group of avionics functional component(s) as a function of the acquired modality, each functional component having an elementary score for each predefined flight modality, an overall score being calculated for each possible group of components from the elementary score or scores of the components of the said group for the acquired modality, the determined group being the one having the best overall score among the calculated overall scores; a display module configured to display information relating to each component of the determined group of avionics functional component(s).

Abstract: Methods and systems for assisting the piloting of an aircraft are provided. The system includes at least one avionics type system and at least one non-avionics type system. The method includes steps involving receiving avionics type data associated with a flying context of the aircraft; forwarding the avionics type data to a non-avionics type system or computer; determining, in the non-avionics computer, one or more adjustment recommendations for equipment based on the received flying context and/or on predetermined data; displaying one or more recommendations. Various developments are described, in particular the conditions for requesting and/or computing recommendations (e.g. ongoing adjustment of the avionics, similar previous configuration, etc.), the selection and the categorization of recommendations, the handling of adjustment data for the avionics, etc. Software aspects are described.

Abstract: A method for processing an error when performing a predetermined avionics procedure, related computer program and detection and alert system is disclosed. In one aspect, the method is carried out automatically by the detection and alert system of an aircraft, the method including monitoring the operation of one or several avionics device(s) of the aircraft, the monitoring based on the tracking of a sequence representative of the predetermined avionics procedure being carried out. The method further includes: detecting a break of the sequence due to an incorrect command and/or skipping of at least one expected command according to the predetermined avionics procedure being performed, and retrieving at least one piece of information representative of the break in the sequence.

Abstract: This decision aid method includes the following steps: acquiring (110) operating states of systems, the operating states being determined by a monitoring system; determining (120) an availability state of each operational capacity, based on the operating states of only the systems of the aircraft implementing that operational capacity, each availability state being chosen from among the group consisting of: a normal state, a downgraded state, an impacted state and a lost state; selecting (150) one or more operational capacities based on the current movement context of the aircraft; communicating (150) the availability state of each selected operational capacity to the pilot.
