Abstract
The invention concerns an approach assisting device (1) comprising a flight management system (2) which determines an approach paths, an inertial reference system (3) which prepares inertial position data, which receives position data of the aircraft, and which determines a hybrid position of said aircraft, a landing assisting multimode receiver (4) which receives data concerning said approach path and said hybrid position, and which deduces therefrom lateral and vertical angular differences, at least when said approach axis is captured, and a guiding system (7) which receives said lateral and vertical angular differences and uses same for guiding the aircraft, at least when said approach path is captured.

9. A device for assisting an approach which is mounted on an aircraft and which is intended to assist said aircraft at least during an approach with vertical guidance following an approach axis, said device (1) comprising a guidance system (7) which receives lateral and vertical deviations and uses them for the guidance of the aircraft, wherein it comprises, moreover:
-
a flight management system (2) which determines said approach axis; an inertial reference system (3) which formulates inertial position data, which receives position data for the aircraft, and which, with the assistance of said position data received and of said formulated inertial position data, determines a hybrid position of the aircraft; and a multimode landing assistance receiver (4) which is connected to said flight management system (2) and to said inertial reference system (3), which receives information relating to said approach axis and to said hybrid position, which deduces therefrom lateral and vertical angular deviations, at least as soon as said approach axis is captured, and which transmits these angular deviations to said guidance system (7). - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
