  • Fluidically controlled cargo hook controlled system
    Patent number: 3957234
    Abstract: A fluidically controlled cargo hook control system for use with aircraft including a fluidic circuit actuatable so that the cargo hook can be opened at pilot command during the pilot command mode of operation, so that the cargo hook will automatically open upon cargo touch-down during the automatic touch-down mode of operation, so that the pilot may override the automatic touch-down system to open the cargo hook at his command during the automatic touch-down mode of operation, and so that the entire fluidic system can be placed in the safe-mode condition so that neither automatic touch-down input nor pilot input can open the cargo hook.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 21, 1975
