I'm sure that in an emergency, if an automated system kicked in it would be more effective than humans since it avoids factors like panic, stress, user error and so on. July 19, - You raise an interesting point. It’s fun either way, and based on my performance, I probably won’t be flying a real airplane anytime soon. It’s really a balancing act, learning everything that you have to do in just the precise way so that the plane lands (and on the runway). Too bad the program doesn’t automatically land the planes for me. So far I’ve successfully taken off and landed with the simplest planes but I always crash the commercial jetliners. But really the basic principles of flight are the same in either case.
Xaircraft flight control system Pc#
The flight simulator runs on my PC and sports a range of airplanes from simple gliders to commercial jets to military planes.Įach one of them has their own flight controls and sometimes it can be a bit disorienting making out all the knobs and dials and meters. In the meantime, I’ve settled for the next best thing – a flight simulator. I guarantee you that if you get one of these things (assuming you don’t have it already) it will improve your ability to land the plane. One thing that I found which helps me is a flight control system joystick, which I bought and has replaced the keyboard and the mouse for moving the plane around.
July 20, - Yeah, I have a similar program on my computer.
The game is a lot of fun and was a bit hit as an app for cell phones not too long ago. You have different types of aircraft just like with flight simulator, and you have a certain time within which you have to land the planes. It’s two–dimensional, not fancy at all, but it is an interesting puzzle game where you have to try to land planes using different flight patterns. July 20, - I don’t have a flight simulator, but I do have a Flight Control PC game. Sometimes you have to pick your way through a bad situation by using common sense, and a computer can't do that. The problem would be that it can only pick from a preset list of things to do. No delay to process and faster to put the solution in place. July 21, I would think that under normal circumstances the automates system would probably be faster than a human reaction.
They don't let it do that yet, but it is perfectly capable of doing so. The Navy is studying a new UCAV (unmanned combat aerial vehicle) that can not only fly to the target on its own, it can independently choose targets based on preset characteristics, attack them, and then fly home. Even though it can only pick from a present list of options, it can be a pretty huge list and it can go through the list almost instantly. July 21, - It's quite true that a computer can't think in the classic sense, but artificial intelligence is getting pretty amazing. Something breaking in the air could be very bad. This is very effective and safe for a light, simple plane, you just have to check them often to make sure everything is tight and in good condition. Our flight controls are linked to steel cables, and the cables actually move the flight control surfaces and directly control the plane. I build experimental light aircraft as a hobby, and we still do it the old fashioned way. It is interesting to read about all of the automatic flight controls, but I am on the completely opposite side of the table.
