Abstract

Automatic low-speed aircraft maneuver wind compensation is implemented by an aircraft flight control system flight control computer (FCC) configured to receive or retrieve steady wind data and retrieve groundspeed data for the aircraft. The FCC computes two-dimensional relative horizontal airspeed (i.e., horizontal relative to the surface of the earth) for the aircraft, using the steady wind data and the groundspeed data for the aircraft, and computes relative changes in trim controls of the aircraft using the two-dimensional relative horizontal airspeed of the aircraft. The resulting relative changes in controls of the aircraft due to relative horizontal airspeed changes are applied to flight element control actuators.
