FIELD: physics, control.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to aircraft flight control equipment. The disclosed system consists of a ground-based (aerodrome) and an airborne (on-board) segment. The ground-based segment includes a panel of meteorological characteristic setting devices and an information unit connected to a national telecommunications network. A radio field of cellular transmitters arranged in the aerodrome approach area is formed at the output of the national telecommunications network. The airborne segment includes a cellular communication radio receiver, a panel of aerodrome password setters, a meteorological characteristic unit, a correction computer and a standard electromechanical barometric altimeter. The system enables to receive on-board and output on a display: an identification password (call signal) of the working direction and magnetic heading of the aerodrome landing strip, atmospheric pressure on the aerodrome, the transition level, vertical and horizontal visibility, wind direction and speed on the landing strip, the traction coefficient and state of the surface of the landing strip. The primary function of the system is to automatically bring the flight altitude to the level of standard atmospheric pressure or to the atmospheric pressure at the aerodrome.
EFFECT: safer landing approach and low probability of collision of aircraft in air by ensuring correct (automatic) correction of readings of the on-board barometric altimeter.
