    Abstract: An enhanced flight control system and method providing a technological improvement over a conventional flight control systems. A control module employs rules to determine whether or not a received traffic collision avoidance system (TCAS) evasive maneuver is automatically implemented. Specifically, the control module effectively couples the TCAS to the FMS, allowing access to the flight plan and to the navigation database and the approach procedures and runway data therein. An algorithm determines when there is a co-occurrence of the conditions (1) a flight plan uploaded in the FMS, (2) autopilot is engaged, (3) VNAV is engaged. Upon co-occurrence of (1) and (2) and (3), and an evasive maneuver is received from a TCAS, the control module determines whether or not to automatically implement the evasive maneuver. Look ahead algorithms may also analyse and modify the flight plan to preclude TCAS alerts and evasive procedures being required.

    Abstract: A hydrostatic automatic flight servo system is provided. The automatic flight servo system includes a manifold that defines a first fluid chamber, and a hydraulic fluid is received in the first fluid chamber. The first fluid chamber includes a first bellows and a second bellows. The automatic flight servo system includes a stick received at least partially within the manifold and pivotally coupled to the manifold. The stick includes a control arm fixedly coupled to the first bellows, and the stick is to receive an input. The automatic flight servo system includes a flight output system pivotally coupled to the manifold. The flight output system includes a second control arm received at least partially within the manifold and coupled to the second bellows such that the pivotal movement of the stick pivots the flight output system relative to the manifold.
