Abstract

A method and a system for determining an angular velocity in turning for a rotary wing aircraft in order to make turns that are coordinated relative to the ground or else relative to the air and in order to manage the transition between ground coordination and air coordination while taking account of the wind to which the aircraft is subjected. The method serving to determine an angular velocity in yaw using an anticipation value and a correction value on the basis in particular of speeds of advance of the aircraft relative to the ground and relative to the air of its lateral acceleration and of its lateral load factor.
