Abstract

An emergency autoland braking system for aircraft includes an electromechanical actuator configured to provide a braking force to rudder pedals for actuating a braking system without altering the existing braking system of the aircraft. An equalized braking force may be applied to both rudder pedals via a force balancing mechanism and a single linear actuator, or differential braking force may be applied via independent linear actuators. The system is compatible with both open and closed loop control for commanding a braking force.
