Abstract
This device for displaying information relative to a flight configuration of the aircraft provided with at least one propulsion system, able to generate a thrust force on said aircraft comprised in a thrust range, said information comprising information relative to an energy variation of the aircraft, is characterized in that the energy variation of the aircraft is expressed by a size representative of this energy variation and homogenous at a gradient of the aircraft, and in that said device is capable of representing a range of energy variations that can be achieved by said aircraft and a current energy variation of said aircraft. Corresponding method and system for displaying an energy variation.
