Method and Apparatus for Optimizing a Load in a Flight Control System While an Aircraft is on the Ground

摘要

A method, apparatus, and computer program product for managing movement of a flight control surface on an aircraft. A control signal is received to move the flight control surface to a position. Travel in a number of actuators in a plurality of actuators coupled to the flight control surface is limited to an amount that reduces a load on the number of actuators in the plurality of actuators in response to receiving the control signal while the aircraft is on the ground and the speed of the aircraft is less than a threshold.

1. A method for managing movement of a flight control surface on an aircraft, the method comprising:
receiving a control signal to move the flight control surface to a position; and responsive to receiving the control signal while the aircraft is on a ground and a speed of the aircraft is less than a threshold, limiting travel in a number of actuators in a plurality of actuators coupled to the flight control surface to an amount that reduces a load on the number of actuators in the plurality of actuators.
