ABSTRACT:
The invention provides alternative flight control methods and structures which can prevent a crash of a passenger or a cargo aircraft under stall/spin and adverse flight conditions, failing Conventional and partial loss of propulsion. That air-safety capability is provided by integrating roll-yaw-pitch engine-nozzle-nacelle thrust vectoring flight TVFC/CFC/TR systems. The methods and structures are intended for transport jets, except one configuration which is intended for turbo-prop transports. Another configuration replaces heavy and complex conventional TR doors and TR-nacelle-grids with an integrated, simpler and lighter TVFC/CFC/TR-systems.
