Abstract: L'invention a pour objet une méthode d'assistance à la navigation d'un giravion multimoteur (M1, M2) en cas de panne-moteur. Un rotor principal (1) du giravion est entraîné à une vitesse NR commandée variable par une unité de commande (8). Des moyens de calcul (9) identifient une marge autorisée (Ma) de puissance mécanique exploitable par le pilote selon un régime (AEO, OEI) de régulation du fonctionnement des moteurs (M1, M2) contrôlé par une unité de régulation (10). Hors cas de panne-moteur et en cas d'un entraînement du rotor principal (1) à une vitesse NR basse, la marge de la puissance mécanique exploitable par le pilote affichée par un écran (16) est une marge limitée (MI) d'une valeur inférieure à la marge autorisée (Ma). Sous ces conditions en cas de panne-moteur, une réserve de puissance mécanique est ainsi ménagée pour permettre au pilote de contrer rapidement la brusque chute de la vitesse NR de rotation du rotor principal (1) induite par la panne-moteur.
