1. A flight deck, comprising:
- a display system including a plurality of display screens each configured to display a plurality of different applications and at least one cursor associated with the applications that is movable between the plurality of display screens;
an interaction device for interacting with the display system and which includes an activation unit configured to activate and control the at least one cursor and a configuration unit that automatically configures the activation unit so as to update a visual presentation and function thereof; and
at least one control panel for a flight-deck system,wherein the interaction device includes a touch-sensitive display screen configured to, in a mode of interaction with the display system, display the cursor, the activation unit being configured automatically according to the application implemented on one of the plurality of display screens of the display system, and, in a mode of virtual representation of a control panel, for displaying a visual representation of the at least one control panel of the flight-deck system, an action on the touch-sensitive display screen configured to control the flight-deck system,wherein the touch-sensitive display screen includes a button for selection of a display and use mode chosen between the mode for interaction with the display system and the mode for virtual representation of the control panel,wherein the touch-sensitive display screen is configured to implement a note-taking function, and the note-taking function is started by selecting a virtual key that is displayed at a same position irrespective of a present application displayed, andwherein the configuration unit reconfigures the visual representation of the activation unit and the function of the activation unit.

13. A flight deck, comprising:
-
a display system including a plurality of display screens each configured to display a plurality of different applications and a cursor associated with the applications that is movable between the plurality of display screens; and an interaction device including a touch-sensitive display screen for interacting with the display system and which includes an activation unit configured to activate and control the cursor, and a configuration unit that automatically re-configures the activation unit based on a determination that one of the applications displayed on one of the display screens is an active application when the cursor is positioned on said one display screen displaying said one application, so as to update a visual presentation and a function of the activation unit, wherein the touch-sensitive display screen is reconfigurable by updating different virtual key configurations displayed thereon responsive to the determination that one of the applications displayed on said one of the display screens is the active application when the cursor is positioned on said one display screen displaying said one application.
