Abstract
System for deriving an information, warning or alarm signal on board an aircraft in the event of an anomaly during take-off. According to the invention, the system comprises: PA1 means (4) for calculating the position D.sub.stop on the runway where the aircraft must stop if the pilot decides to interrupt the take-off procedure immediately, that is to say representative of the stopping distance of the aircraft during the acceleration phase of the latter at take-off; means (5) for comparing D.sub.stop to the length of runway L available so as to determine whether an interruption of the take-off is still possible.
