  • Publication number: 20050051671
    Abstract: A non-jamming, fail safe flight control system with non-symmetric load alleviation capability includes a dual cable control system one for each side of control surface, like an elevator or an aileron, controlled by a pilot but driven by a driving system which allows control surfaces to even out the load from one side to the other without affecting pilots control while—if one side becomes jammed—enabling the pilot, with no extra action, to continue flying the aircraft utilizing the other side. In another embodiment an automatic lock feature ensures that a pilot is able to continue to complete the flight in case of severance of a control cable due to a discrete damage without interruption attributable to the control system. Yet another embodiment utilizing either the same or a separate locking feature enables the pilot to lock the surfaces upon parking the aircraft.
