Abstract

The guidance device of the aircraft includes a unit for constructing a flight trajectory of the aircraft, which adapts the height of the flight trajectory to a downstream relief so as to allow the aircraft to clear this downstream relief by implementing a rectilinear climb at maximum rate of climb of the aircraft, along a rectilinear lateral direction corresponding to the direction of the aircraft at the moment of the triggering of the maneuver.
