Abstract

See full text

A system for operating an aircraft door includes an operating handle having a lever and a grip, a slide arming means movable between a first position representing an armed state and a second position representing a disarmed state, a control unit coupled with the slide arming means, warning means arranged in the vicinity of the slide arming means and a sensor. The sensor is adapted for detecting the proximity of a hand of a user in a field around the grip, which field covers a distance of at least 10 cm and not exceeding 50 cm to the grip, and for producing a proximity signal representing the proximity of a hand of a person. The control unit is adapted for operating the warning means on receiving the proximity signal of the sensor to attention to the slide arming means when the slide arming means is in the first position.
