An aircraft overspeed protection system produces proportional and integral commands for input to an autopilot controlling the aircraft. The proportional and integral commands are produced by comparing actual monitored speed of the aircraft with a target speed from a target speed selector. The target speed selector selects as the target speed a trigger speed above a nominal maximum operating airspeed of the aircraft until the trigger speed is reached by the aircraft. When the trigger speed is reached by the aircraft, the overspeed control goes into Overspeed Protect Command active mode and the target speed selector selects a new target speed below the nominal maximum operating speed of the aircraft. The overspeed protection system remains in Overspeed Protect Command active mode until the pilot takes a positive action by selecting a new autopilot mode or by disengaging the autopilot. To accommodate for a reduced effectiveness of the overspeed protection system at severe roll angles, the overspeed proportional and integral commands are weighted by a weighting factor that is a function of the measured roll angle of the aircraft.
