Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2463844A1] The method involves generating a new section of a flight trajectory by using a virtual trajectory that comprises a best score with respect to an objective set by an operator. The new section is evaluated and assigned with a score representing ability to reach the objective. The evaluated new section is registered with the score. The above processes are repeated until the downstream end corresponds to a target point such that the virtual trajectory represents an optimum flight trajectory. The optimum flight trajectory is transmitted to a user unit (12). An independent claim is also included for a device for determining an optimum flight trajectory for an aircraft such as transport aircraft, comprising a storage.
