Abstract
A system for reducing the forces applied to the wings of an aircraft in flight includes an accelerometer for measuring the vertical acceleration of the aircraft and generators for generating signals to control the aerodynamic surfaces in the wings of the aircraft as a function of the acceleration measured by the accelerometer. The control signal generator is not activated except when the vertical acceleration exceeds a predetermined value.
