Investigation of the Alternative Way of an Aircraft Flight SemiAutomatic Control*

The approach to formation of the semi-automatic control circuit is presented in this paper. The offered way of semi-automatic flight control is named here as “command”. There is the flight director system (FDS), which furnishes for a pilot the steering commands necessary to obtain and hold a desired path. It is the widely applied way of a semi-automatic aircraft flight control. The “command” way of the flight control has the other distribution of duties between the pilot and the automatic devices: commands on a correction of flight path are given out by the pilot, and automatics execute these commands. It can be assumed that the suggested method may be useful for remote control of the unmanned aerial vehicles. Under the proposed approach the algorithms for semi-automatic flight control units were developed. The results of studies, which have been carried out on the flight simulator, are shown
