Abstract

A method for checking the maximum available power of a turbine engine of an aircraft equipped with two turbine engines configured to operate in parallel and together to supply a necessary power to the aircraft during a flight phase includes: placing one of the turbine engines in a maximum take-off power regime, and adjusting a power supplied by the other turbine engine, such that the turbine engines continue to supply the necessary power to the aircraft during the flight phase; determining a power supplied by the turbine engine placed in the maximum take-off power regime, and processing the supplied power determined in this way, in order to deduce a piece of information relating to the maximum available power.
