Abstract
A first actuator drives a control surface by being operated by supply of pressure oil from a first aircraft central hydraulic power source including a first aircraft central hydraulic pump. A second actuator drives the control surface by being operated by supply of pressure oil from a second aircraft central hydraulic power source including a second aircraft central hydraulic pump. A backup hydraulic pump is installed inside a wing of the aircraft and is provided so as to be able to supply pressure oil to the first actuator when a loss or degradation in a function of at least one of the first aircraft central hydraulic power source and the second aircraft central hydraulic power source occurs. A maximum discharge pressure of the backup hydraulic pump is set to be greater than maximum discharge pressures of the first aircraft central hydraulic pump and the second aircraft central hydraulic pump.
