The FD calculates the pitch and bank angles needed to fly the desired course, heading, altitude, speed, etc., that the pilot has programmed. It then displays these angles on the primary flight display (PFD) using magenta command bars. The pilot can follow the desired flight path by manipulating the control wheel to align the yellow aircraft symbol with the command bars. Alternately, the pilot can activate the AP, which uses servos to adjust the elevators, ailerons, and elevator trim as necessary to follow the command bars. Controls The AFCS is activated and programmed using buttons on the left bezel of the PFD and the multifunction display (MFD).

    11ADOBL04 December 2010

    11ADOBL04 December 2010 Use of rudder on Airbus A300-600/A310 (extracted from former FCOM Bulletin N°15/1 – Subject N°40) Reason for issue On February 8th, 2002, the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), in cooperation with the French Bureau d'Enquêtes et d'Analyses (BEA), issued recommendations that aircraft manufacturers re-emphasize the structural certification requirements for the rudder and vertical stabilizer, showing how some maneuvers can result in exceeding design lim- its and even lead to structural failure. The purpose of this Bulletin is to re-emphasize proper operational use of the rudder, highlight certification requirements and rud- der control design characteristics. Yaw control General In flight, yaw control is provided by the rudder, and directional stability is provided by the vertical stabilizer. The rudder and vertical stabilizer are sized to meet the two following objectives: Provide sufficient lateral control of the aircraft during crosswind takeoffs and landings, within the published crosswind limits (refer to FCOM Operating Limitations chapter). Provide positive aircraft control under conditions of engine failure and maximum asymmetric thrust, at any speed above Vmcg (minimum control speed - on ground). The vertical stabilizer and the rudder must be capable of generating sufficient yawing moments to maintain directional control of the aircraft. The rudder deflection, necessary to achieve these yawing moments, and the resulting sideslip angles place significant aerodynamic loads on the rudder and on the vertical stabilizer. Both are designed to sustain loads as prescribed in the JAR/FAR 25 certification requirements which define several lateral loading conditions (maneuver, gust loads and asymmetric loads due to engine failure) leading to the required level of structural strength.

    MEDIA RELEASE Broomfield, Colorado, USA, 6 July 2021 EXTENSIVE LIST OF NEW FEATURES FOR THE PILATUS PC-24 SUPER VERSATILE JET Based on customer feedback from over 50,000 hours of fleet operations, Pilatus has incorporated numerous new features into Super Versatile Jets which come off the production line from this year onward. As it is Pilatus‘ core philosophy to continuously improve and provide support over the life of the aircraft, many of these new features can be retrofitted in earlier serial number PC-24s. Starting with the passenger experience, the cabin features new executive seats which provide more comfort, more intuitive controls, and lighter weight. They fully recline to a flat position. The seats are attached to the cabin’s flat floor with quick -release mechanisms to facilitate rapid seating configuration changes on the ground. In lieu of the standard forward left-hand coat closet, operators may now choose to install a galley with options for a microwave oven, a coffee or espresso maker, a generous work surface, dedicated ice storage, and capacity for standard catering units. Smarter avionics For PC-24 flight crews, Pilatus and Honeywell have continued to develop and refine the Advanced Cockpit Environment (ACE). A touch-screen avionics controller replaces the multi-function controller as standard equipment. The touch-screen controller was first introduced in the PC-12 NGX, and has proven to be very well liked for entering and editing flight plan data, changing radio frequencies, and controlling the weather radar. It features a slip-resistant design around the bezel for stability and input precision in turbulence.
