Abstract

A device for monitoring a plurality of systems of an aircraft includes a monitoring unit that monitors the systems and detects a failure of one of the systems. A display device, upon detection of a failure and throughout a corresponding failure-handling procedure, displays on a visual-display screen information identifying the failure-handling procedure, a list of the actions already performed relating to the procedure, and a list of the actions still having to be performed. An information device actuated by an operator informs the monitoring device that a particular action relating to the failure-handling procedure has been performed.
