A method of the invention allows the determination of aircraft sideslip using an air data probe and an inertial reference unit. A lateral sideslip component .beta.L of the aircraft is calculated as a function of inertial flight information. An angular sideslip component .beta.A of the aircraft is also calculated as a function of inertial flight information. The lateral sideslip component .beta.L and the angular sideslip component .beta.A are combined to obtain a total sideslip angle .beta.TOTAL for the aircraft. The total sideslip angle .beta.TOTAL can be used to compensate static pressure, angle of attack and other aircraft parameters for sideslip effects.

Un procédé de l'invention permet la détermination de l'angle de dérapage de l'aéronef au moyen d'une sonde de données aérodynamiques et une unité de référence inertielle. Un composant de dérapage .beta.L de l'aéronef est calculé en fonction de l'information de vol inertiel. Un composant de dérapage angulaire .beta.A de l'aéronef est également calculé en fonction de l'informations de vol inertiel. Le composant de dérapage latéral .beta.L et le composant de dérapage angulaire .beta.A sont combinés de manière à obtenir un angle de dérapage total .beta.TOTAL pour l'aéronef. L'angle de dérapage total .beta.TOTAL peut servir à compenser la pression statique, l'angle d'attaque et d'autres paramètres de l'aéronef liés aux effets de dérapage.
