Abstract

A device for revising a low-altitude flight phase of a flight path of an aircraft includes an input unit configured to allow an operator to input parameters to define an intermediate flight section (Si) which has to be inserted into a low-altitude flight phase, and a processing unit configured to calculate a profile relating to the intermediate flight section (Si) using input parameters, and to automatically insert this profile into the flight phase between a first upstream part (P1) and a second downstream part (P2) so as to establish a revised flight phase (PR).
