Device to aid the positioning of a pilot in an aircraft
First Claim
1. A device (1) for aiding the positioning of a pilot in an aircraft by means of a visual aid, said positioning being provided by an axial movement of the pilot, called movement along the X axis, in an aircraft reference coordinate system, and by a vertical movement of the pilot, called movement along the Z axis, in the aircraft reference system, said movements in the X and Z axes defining a vertical XZ plane, said device comprising two geometric shapes (3, 4) separated in space and designed to be visually aligned when the pilot adjusts his position, characterized in that said two geometric shapes each have a visual reference (31, 41) on their surface, approximately in the same horizontal plane, perpendicular to the vertical XZ plane.

Abstract
A visual aid is used by a pilot in an aircraft to position himself in the cockpit by an axial movement, called movement along the X axis, in an aircraft reference coordinate system, and by a vertical movement, called movement along the Z axis, in the aircraft reference system. The visual aid comprises two geometric shapes (3, 4), separated in space and designed to be visually aligned by the pilot; these shapes have the characteristic that each has a visual reference (31, 41) on its surface, approximately in the same horizontal plane perpendicular to the vertical XZ plane.
