SYSTÈME DE DÉCOLLAGE À FAIBLE VISIBILITÉ/SANS VISIBILITÉ

摘要

A no/low visibility automatic takeoff system for an aircraft obtains a runway reference centerline and aircraft pointing direction (via the aircraft's sensors) and automatically controls the aircraft pointing direction to track the runway reference centerline. An initial vector is obtained based on the initial position of the aircraft the first piloted initiation of the takeoff roll. After the system obtains a centerline, it automatically tracks the centerline and corrects aircraft trajectory so the aircraft heading closely matches the runway centerline as the aircraft proceeds down the runway,
