A process for cutting out a damaged area of an aircraft fuselage, in particular so as to repair the damaged area, includes in making at least one cut-out in the fuselage (20) so as to delimit a cut-out area (24) that encompasses the damaged area and that includes at least one flare-out, characterize

A process for cutting out a damaged area of an aircraft fuselage, in particular so as to repair the damaged area, includes in making at least one cut-out in the fuselage (20) so as to delimit a cut-out area (24) that encompasses the damaged area and that includes at least one flare-out, characterized in that it includes making a hole (34) at the flare-out of the cut-out area (24) with a tool whose diameter corresponds to that of the desired flare-out.

1. A process for repairing a damaged area of an aircraft fuselage, comprising: making at least one cut-out in the fuselage (20) so as to delimit a cut-out area that encompasses the damaged area; andblocking an opening that corresponds to the cut-out area with an element (28) compatible with a remainder of the fuselage (20),wherein the cut-out area has a polygonal shape bounded by a closed path and having sides (32) with one hole (34) at each angle of the polygonal shape of the cut-out area, wherein a portion of each hole extends outside of the polygonal shape,wherein each hole (34) is cut out with a tool whose diameter corresponds to that of a desired flare-out, said holes (34) being connected by cutting along said sides (32) using a saw, andwherein a flare-out at each angle is obtained by piercing a corresponding hole (34) whose diameter corresponds to that of the flare-out. 2. The process according to claim 1, further comprising re-drilling for several microns at at least one hole to improve surface quality of an edge of the hole. 3. The process according to claim 2, wherein the sides of the cut-out area and each hole are cross-cut. 4. The process according to claim 1, wherein the sides of the cut-out area and each hole are cross-cut. 5. The process according to claim 4, wherein the sides are arranged relative to each hole to delimit a curved arc at each hole extending approximately over 270°. 6. A process for repairing a damaged area of an aircraft fuselage, comprising: designating a polygonal area to be cut out, the polygonal area encompassing the damaged area;forming a hole at each vertex of the polygonal area, with a tool whose diameter corresponds to that of the hole to be formed, and wherein a portion of each hole extends outside of the polygonal area;using a saw to cut along each side of the polygonal area, from an edge of one hole to an edge of an adjacent hole, until the polygonal area including the damaged area has been removed, thereby to form an opening that corresponds to a cut-out area in the aircraft fuselage; andblocking the opening with an element compatible with a remainder of the fuselage.
