Abstract

A system (1) including an identification unit (2) for identifying at least one actuation element to be actuated to implement a current control from a check-list, a signaling unit (3) for visually highlighting the identified actuation element, a detection unit (4) for detecting a position of a hand of a pilot, a checking unit (5) for checking whether the detected position of the hand of the pilot is consistent with the position of the identified and highlighted actuation element for the actuation thereof, an alert unit (6) for alerting the pilot to a risk of incorrect actuation, in case of absence of consistency between the detected position of the hand of the pilot and the position of the actuation element, and a recovery unit (15) for identifying, in case of incorrect actuation, at least one suggest correct actuation element.
