Abstract:
A flight control law enhances braking efficiency through the operation of aircraft elevators (or another pitch control system) using measured longitudinal acceleration and/or pedal position as references to the control law. Through this solution, it is possible to increase the vertical load in the main landing gear and consequently enhance braking efficiency.
