The present invention relates to a method for selective filtering of a flight plan according to the operational needs, and it is characterized in that elements specific to the structure of the flight plan are added by the flight management system according to the nature of the elements inserted by the operator onto the flight plan, in order to determine whether these elements should or should not be taken into account for their use in the computations relating to the flight plan. This operator may, on his MMI (man-machine interface) carry out visual filterings of certain characteristic points or portions of the flight plan. This method makes it possible to add elements to a flight plan without modifying its essence and above all the maneuvers that are associated therewith.

1. A method for selective filtering of a flight plan of an aircraft according to operational needs, comprising the steps of: adding elements specific to a structure of the flight plan by a flight management system by an operator of the aircraft onto the flight plan; andfiltering the added elements of the flight plan by applying at least one of the following filters: terminations of legs and transfer points, “Along Track Offsets”, “Abeams”, “offsetted” points and of offset joining points, “terminal waypoints”, airports and overfly set points,whereinthe filtered elements are ignored during computations relating to the flight plan, andsaid one of the applied filters is determined according to the operational needs of the computations relating the flight plan. 2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the aircraft operator determines whether each added element remaining in the flight plan is used in a computation of a trajectory of the aircraft. 3. The method according to claim 1, wherein the added elements are characteristic points or portions of the flight plan. 4. The method according to claim 1, wherein each added element is at least one of the following elements: APF (“Along Path Fix”) element, ATO (“Along Track Offset”), orthogonal projection of a point on a trajectory, intersection of a ray with the trajectory, intersection of a circle with the trajectory, crossing of latitude or longitude by the trajectory. 5. The method according to claim 1, wherein a trajectory of the aircraft is slaved to a computed trajectory taking account of the elements. 6. The method according to claim 1, wherein the added elements are filtered by the operator with the aid of a man-machine interface. 7. The method according to claim 6, wherein the method is applied to a tree structure flight plan. 8.

The method according to claim 8, wherein the filtering is applied to branches of the tree structure flight plan and that the method comprises at least one of the following filterings: filtering of a “missed approach”, filtering of an EOSID, filtering of a diversion flight plan. 11. The method according to claim 1, wherein the method is applied for at least one of the following needs: generation of a lateral trajectory and of a vertical trajectory, slaving of the aircraft to a computed trajectory, a downwards transmission of the flight plan to air traffic control, viewing of all pertinent information on a man-machine interface of the operator. 12. The method according to claim 1, wherein the method is applied to a tree structure flight plan. 13. The method according to claim 2, wherein the added elements are characteristic points or portions of the flight plan. 14. The method according to claim 2, wherein each added element is at least one of the following elements: APF (“Along Path Fix”) element, ATO (“Along Track Offset”), orthogonal projection of a point on the trajectory, intersection of a ray with the trajectory, intersection of a circle with the trajectory, crossing of latitude or longitude by the trajectory. 15. The method according to claim 3, wherein each added element is at least one of the following elements: APF (“Along Path Fix”) element, ATO (“Along Track Offset”), orthogonal projection of a point on trajectory, intersection of a ray with the trajectory, intersection of a circle with the trajectory, crossing of latitude or longitude by the trajectory. 16.
