  • Optimized trajectory to noise improvement with auto-takeoff
    Patent number: 11216011
    Abstract: Aircraft takeoff trajectory is automatically optimized to minimize Perceived Noise Level. A flight computer automatically performs all the actions to takeoff the airplane and assure that its real takeoff trajectory is compliant with the takeoff trajectory optimized. Variability of trajectory is eliminated through automation of pilot's actions during takeoff and assurance of an optimum trajectory. The system also provides for simultaneity of actions and the changing of aerodynamic configuration during takeoff.

  • Low/No visibility takeoff system
    Patent number: 11074820
    Abstract: A no/low visibility automatic takeoff system for an aircraft obtains a runway reference centerline and aircraft pointing direction (via the aircraft's sensors) and automatically controls the aircraft pointing direction to track the runway reference centerline. An initial vector is obtained based on the initial position of the aircraft the first piloted initiation of the takeoff roll. After the system obtains a centerline, it automatically tracks the centerline and corrects aircraft trajectory so the aircraft heading closely matches the runway centerline as the aircraft proceeds down the runway.

  • Safe takeoff system
    Patent number: 10429856
    Abstract: An aircraft includes a safe takeoff system that automatically and autonomously rejects a takeoff if actual measured acceleration deviates from calculations based on pre-flight parameters and the speed of the aircraft traveling down the runway is within a safe speed range to guarantee a successful low inertia rejected takeoff.
