Abstract
A monitoring device automatically monitors lateral guidance orders of an aircraft. The device includes a failure monitoring device for implementing comparisons between roll control orders generated by a number of equipments in order to be able to detect a failure of one of the equipments concerning the generation of lateral guidance orders of the aircraft. Additionally, the device includes a failure anticipation comparator device for analyzing inlet parameters of the equipments to determine when a failure of one of the equipments should be anticipated.
