A method of approach and coupling between VTOL and HTOL platforms, self-contained approach and coupling system, and associated VTOL platform. This consists of a vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) assistance system for platforms lacking said capability, such as HTOL platforms, enabling the combined operation of two flight platforms, a VTOL and a HTOL. To this end, it presents a dual dynamic, controlled coupling and uncoupling system between the two platforms during the take-off and landing manoeuvres. On the one hand, the advantage consists of freeing the HTOL platform from the VTOL platform, once the former can fly independently and with better performance subsequent to the take-off operation, and on the other hand, the capture of the HTOL platform by the VTOL platform during the landing process, eliminating the risks characteristic of runway landing.
