The invention relates to a method of managing the braking of an aircraft, the aircraft having a plurality of wheels R1, . . . , R12, each fitted with a brake F1, . . . , F12 adapted to generate a braking force in response to brake pedals 5 being depressed, the management method comprising the steps of: distributing the wheels fitted with respective brakes in at least two distinct groups G1, G2, G3, G′1, G′2, G′3; and allocating respective relationships to each of the groups of wheels for determining how braking force varies as a function of the depression of the brake pedals. According to the invention, the method further comprises the step of modifying the distribution of the wheels in response to a predetermined event occurring.
