Abstract
A flight control system commands drag devices such as flight spoilers according to pilot or autopilot longitudinal command. Furthermore, the flight control system monitors a set of flight parameters to determine whether the aircraft is operating inside the permitted safe envelope, hence, incorporating envelope automatic exceeding disengagement. This invention allows the aircraft to descend in a steeper glide path than the 3° used in the normal approach, while keeping speeds unchanged.
