Method for assisting a pilot in controlling an aircraft, assistance system for an aircraft pilot, and aircraft

An assistance system for assisting a pilot in controlling an aircraft having a plurality of propulsion devices, the assistance system comprising,

• a computing device for calculating momentary control limitations for:
• control of the aircraft around a roll axis (x);
• control of the aircraft around a pitch axis (y);
• control of the aircraft around a yaw axis (z);
• and
• control of a total thrust (T) of the propulsion devices;
• and
• a display device for displaying the calculated control limitations in order to enable the pilot to control the aircraft within physical capabilities of the aircraft.

An aircraft comprising:

• a plurality of lift-generating propulsion devices;
