| Description | An analytical study has shown that, with proper selection of feedback gains, an automatic control system can reduce excursions in altitude of a jet transport flying in turbulence without increasing structural loads. The control system uses feedback of attitude-angle and pitch-rate signals to the elevator and uses feedback of altitude and altitude-rate signals to the throttle. |
