    摘要: A method of warning of early rotation of an aircraft during takeoff is disclosed. An improvement in aircraft performance and passenger comfort can be realised by monitoring for signs of early rotation and warning the pilot of such. By detecting when rotation has been commanded by the pilot, and the aircraft nose has started to lift off the ground, when the speed of the aircraft is below a threshold, early rotation can be determined and an auditory warning can mitigate the impact of that on aircraft performance.

    摘要: Herein provided are sensing systems, methods, sensors, and methods of manufacturing a sensor for a rotating element in an engine. A magnetic core having first and second ends is positioned with the first end proximate the rotating element. A permanent magnet is positioned proximate the second end of the magnetic core and is configured for subjecting the magnetic core and the rotating element to a magnetic field. A bifilar winding comprising a first wire and a second wire electrically insulated from one another is wrapped around at least a portion of the magnetic core, the bifilar winding configured to generate a first signal in the first wire and a second signal in the second wire in response to rotation of the rotating element relative to the sensor.

    摘要: Actuator systems and methods for controlling aerodynamic control surfaces of aircraft including a first actuator receiving a first input and a first linear translation element that moves based thereon, the first linear translation element operably connected to a first portion of the control surface. A first sensor assembly is disposed relative to the first actuator that generates an output based on a displacement of the first translation element. A second actuator receives a second input and a second linear translation element moves based on the second input, the second linear translation element operably connected to a second portion of the control surface. A second sensor assembly is disposed relative to the second actuator that generates a second sensor output based on a displacement of the second translation element. A controller generates the inputs and receives the sensor outputs to determine if an error condition exists for the system.

    摘要: A remote optical control surface indication system comprising mechanisms configured to engage heads of respective fasteners that attach an alignment indexing plate to a vehicular structure having a control surface coupled thereto. The system further comprises: a camera having a field of view that encompasses a portion of an end face of the control surface when the mechanisms are engaged with the fasteners and when the control surface is in a neutral position; a source of light that is activatable to project light that illuminates the end face of the control surface; a display screen comprising an array of pixels; and a computing system configured to process image data captured by the camera to determine a current position of a centerline of the end face of the control surface relative to a baseline position and control the display screen to display symbology indicating the current position relative to the baseline position.

    摘要: A method is provided for verifying proper operation of a left elevator tab disposed at an end portion of a left elevator of an aircraft and a right elevator tab disposed at an end portion of a right elevator of the aircraft. Because proper operation of the elevator tabs cannot be directly verified by existing aircraft instrument, the operation of the elevator tabs can be indirectly verified by analyzing flight data of the aircraft. After identification of a verification event, in which the elevator tabs move relative to the elevators, the positions of the left elevator and right elevator can be measured, and differences in the positions of the left elevator and right elevator can indicate proper operation of the left and right elevator tabs.
