Claim:
1. A method for managing aircraft radiofrequency communications, on board an aircraft, the method comprising: determining a plurality of communication frequencies, each communication frequency corresponding to a communication center within a radio horizon of the aircraft; filtering the plurality of communication frequencies according to a current flight step of the aircraft, wherein filtering the plurality of communication frequencies comprises identifying at least one irrelevant communication frequency that corresponds to a first communication center not providing services relevant to the current flight step of the aircraft and identifying one or more relevant communication frequencies; sorting the one or more relevant communication frequencies according to occupation rate in order to prioritize the one or more relevant communication frequencies, and thereby aid in predicting a communication frequency communicated to the aircraft; and displaying the one or more relevant communication frequencies, sorted according to occupation rate, on a display device.
