A flight control system according to the present invention includes a first sensor, a flight control computer, a link mechanism, a separation unit, and a second sensor detecting a force transmitted from the first control lever to the link mechanism. The first sensor detects a force applied from an outside to a first control lever. The flight control computer determines whether or not sticking arises in the first control lever on the basis of the force detected by the first sensor and the force detected by the second sensor, and outputs a separation command to the separation unit when determining that the sticking arises. The separation unit disconnects the link mechanism on the basis of the separation command to separate a connection between the first control lever and the second control lever.
