A method includes determining, at a computing system of an aircraft, a target path for an approach to landing based on flight data. The method includes determining an approach phase of approach phases of the approach to landing. The method includes determining a real-time operational region of the aircraft for each monitored condition of monitored conditions based on the real-time aircraft data, the target path, and operational regions for each monitored condition. The method includes accessing notification content for a particular monitored condition for the approach phase. The real-time operational region for the particular monitored condition for the approach phase is outside of a target region of the particular monitored condition for the approach phase. The method also includes sending one or more notification signals based on the notification content from the computing system to one or more output systems.

System and method of response to an unstable approach during an approach to landing for an aircraft

Disclosed herein is a flight control cable sensor for detecting actuation of a flight control cable of an aircraft. The flight control cable sensor comprises a draw wire encoder, comprising an extendable-retractable wire. The flight control cable sensor further comprises a first connector, co-movably fixed to the extendable-retractable wire, and a second connector, co-movably fixable to the flight control cable and configured to removably co-movably engage the first connector up to a predetermined pull-off force.
