French term

performances de pilotage

French to English Tech/Engineering Aerospace / Aviation / Space
I am having a little trouble with this phrase “performances de pilotage ". This phrase has been used for Aeronautics, Defense, Health/Chemistry and Electronics in order to describe the main expertise of a particular client. The phrase is mentioned as "Amélioration des performances de pilotage ". For Aeronautics if I translate it as "Flying performance improvement"- how about the other domains?

Thank you in advance.

what's the full paragraph? tend to agree with CMJ's reading that they are not talking about flight here; more context would help to clarify directions for translation

pilotage is management-speak - meaning stewardship, leadership, etc.

Either improv(ed) pilot(ing) skills/performance/airmanship or leadership managing/coordinating skils

. More context would help!

control performances

In Electronics/IT I translate pilotage to *control* in the majority of contexts. Of course it would depend on the phrasing. Have a look at the official EU dictionary here:

For other possible uses is several domains ;)
