A piloting system having a control stick configured to control the aircraft with respect to its three piloting axes, namely the pitch axis, the roll axis and the yaw axis, and an auxiliary control device configured to automatically control the aircraft during one of the following phases: a landing phase and a takeoff phase. The auxiliary control device automatically controls the aircraft with respect to at least one of the piloting axes, and the other piloting axes, which are not controlled automatically by the auxiliary control device, then being controlled manually by a pilot with the aid of the control stick.

1. A system for piloting an aircraft, said piloting system comprising: at least one control stick configured to be actuated by a pilot so as to control the aircraft with respect to three piloting axes, namely the pitch axis, the roll axis and the yaw axis, andan auxiliary control device configured to automatically control the aircraft during one of the following phases: a landing phase and a takeoff phase, the auxiliary control device configured to automatically control the aircraft with respect to at least one of said piloting axes while the control stick is simultaneously configured to manually control the other piloting axes which are not controlled automatically by said auxiliary control device. 2. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein said auxiliary control device comprises at least one control module configured to automatically determine, with the aid of at least one integrated control law, a control order which is applied to control surfaces of the aircraft to control the aircraft with respect to at least one corresponding piloting axis. 3. The system as claimed in claim 2, wherein said auxiliary control device comprises, as control modules: a module configured to slave the yaw rate of the aircraft, which is configured to automatically maintain the yaw rate at zero to within a margin, on the ground, during the takeoff phase;a module configured to automatically maintain the wings level, on the ground, during the takeoff phase;a module configured to automatically compensate turning, in flight; anda module configured to automatically align the yaw, during the landing phase. 4. The system as claimed in claim 3, wherein said auxiliary control device further comprises: a module configured to slave the aircraft on a given axis in yaw, during the takeoff phase; anda module configured to automatically control a flare, during the landing phase. 5. The system as claimed in claim 4, wherein said auxiliary control device comprises: an automatic takeoff set comprising for the takeoff phase:a module configured to automatically slave the aircraft to a virtual axis in terms of yaw;the module configured to automatically maintain the wings level; andan automatic rotation module; andan automatic landing set comprising for the landing phase:the module configured to automatically align yaw;the module configured to automatically control flare; anda module configured to automatically maintain a lateral axis in flight and on the ground with respect to roll. 6. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the control stick comprises a lever provided with a handle, and the control stick is configured: to pivot as a whole in a first plane, to control the aircraft in relation to the pitch axis; andto pivot as a whole in a second plane different from said first plane, to control the aircraft in relation to the roll axis, andto pivot with respect to the lever to control the aircraft in relation to the yaw axis. 7. The system as claimed in claim 6, wherein the handle is configured to return automatically to a neutral position, when it is released after having been previously actuated to control the yaw axis. 8. The system as claimed in claim 6, wherein the control stick comprises a resistance element configured to generate a resistance in the handle during its actuation with a view to controlling the yaw axis. 9. The system as claimed in claim 6, wherein the maximum angular travel of the handle to control the aircraft in relation to the yaw axis is larger in one direction than in the other, relative to a neutral position. 10. A method for piloting an aircraft, said aircraft comprising at least one control stick configured to be actuated by a pilot so as to control the aircraft with respect to its piloting axes, said control stick being configured to control the aircraft with respect to its three piloting axes, namely the pitch axis, the roll axis and the yaw axis, and said method comprising: simultaneously automatically controlling the aircraft, during an automatic piloting step, with respect to at least one of said three piloting axes, during one of the following phases of the aircraft: a landing phase and a takeoff phase; andsimultaneously manually controlling the aircraft by a pilot, during a manual piloting step, the other of said three piloting axes with the aid of the control stick, during the one of the landing and takeoff phases. 11. The method as claimed in claim 10, wherein the automatic piloting step comprises automatically controlling the aircraft with respect to the set of its piloting axes during the landing and takeoff phases. 12. An aircraft comprising a piloting system for piloting an aircraft, said piloting system comprising: at least one control stick configured to be actuated by a pilot so as to control the aircraft with respect to at least some of three piloting axes, namely the pitch axis, the roll axis and the yaw axis, andan auxiliary control device configured to automatically control the aircraft during one of the following phases: a landing phase and a takeoff phase,the auxiliary control device configured to automatically control the aircraft with respect to at least one of said piloting axes while simultaneously the control stick is configured to manually control the other piloting axes which are not controlled automatically by said auxiliary control device.
