20110137496 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR AUTOMATICALLY CONTROLLING AIRCRAFT FLIGHT CONTROL TRIM SYSTEMS - An automatic trim system and method is disclosed for automatically trimming a flight control surface of an aircraft. A force sensor measures a force applied by a pilot to a flight control system actuator. The length of time that the force is applied by the pilot is then timed by a tinier. A trim system to reduce the applied force is included on the flight control surfaces. A processor determines if trim is required if a predetermined amount of time is exceeded based on the force sensor measurement. The processor can set the trim system to the trim required therein. An airspeed sensor is used to verify that the aircraft has sufficient speed for flight. A force sensor can be utilized to measure the input force being applied by the pilot. If a pilot input force is applied to the controls and the aircraft is in a steady state, a timer can be activated. If the force sensor continues to sense a force after the tinier times for a predetermined time, the trim can he adjusted in the appropriate direction until the force sensor measures no significant pilot input force. | 06-09-2011 |

The cyclic on and off process is performed only when the aircraft is at a safe altitude above ground level. If the aircraft is in close proximity to the ground and the pressure drops, the boost pump will be activated and remain on without cycling until the aircraft is at a safe altitude, or the aircraft is parked and the engine has been turned off. | 07-05-2012 |
