ABSTRACT:
An overload warning system for fighter type aircraft combines analytical techniques of computing structural loads with flight conditions and aircraft control inputs to calculate the allowable load factor/control input on a real time basis. The flight conditions and aircraft control inputs are monitored by a microprocessor, which continuously monitors actual load factor, compares the answers with a computed allowable value and generates an output signal whenever a prescribed value is exceeded. This signal is available for transmission to aural or visual warning devices and for permanent recording.
