Navigation system for an aircraft and associated command process
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A navigation system for an aircraft with high-lift devices, comprising:
- means for calculating an estimated flight path for the aircraft;
means for determining an estimated value of a flight parameter that corresponds to an estimated speed, an extension of at least a portion of the high-lift devices of the aircraft being performed in view of the estimated value;
means for displaying on a display screen a symbol at a position representative of said estimated value,wherein the estimated value is a unique value of the flight parameter and the symbol is positioned on the display screen so as to distinctly represent the unique estimated value and show, in advance, a specific time for the extension of the portion of the high-lift devices of the aircraft.
