METHOD FOR MANAGING THE AIR DATA OF AN AIRCRAFT

The invention relates to a method for managing altitude data of an aircraft in which a main baro-inertial computation loop is used that uses signals originating from an inertial unit and a standard altitude information item supplied by a main air data reference, and at least one standard altitude information item supplied by a secondary baro-inertial deviation loop respectively using signals from said inertial unit of the main loop and a to standard altitude information item originating from the second air data reference, and a baro-inertial altitude deviation, a vertical speed deviation and accelerometric bias deviation visible on the vertical between the main loop and at least one of said secondary baro-inertial loops are computed.
