Flight control

Normal configuration
ELAC 1 FAILURE
The loss of ELevator Aileron Computer (ELAC) 1 leads to select
ELAC 2 active. ELAC 2 computes the lateral orders in normal law
and transmits them to the Spoiler Elevator Computer (SEC) for the
roll spoiler.

ELAC 1+2 FAILURE

In case of loss of both ELACs only spoilers are available. The SECs
control the roll in direct law and the yaw damping function normal
law is lost.

AILERON SERVO CONTROL FAILURE

In case of failure of one aileron servo control, the second one takes
over and is controlled by the other ELAC. In this example, ELAC 1
still computes the orders and ELAC 2 is in slave mode.

ELAC 1 SERVO CONTROLS FAILURE

In case of failure of both ELAC 1 servo controls, then ELAC 2 does
the computation and controls its servo controls.

FAILURES ON THE SAME AILERON

In case of failure of both servo controls of the same aileron, the other
aileron is still operated.

SPOILER SERVO CONTROL FAILURE

In case of failure of a spoiler servo control, the opposite surface is
Retracted

ELECTRICAL FAILURE
In case of total electrical loss, induced roll is obtained by using the rudder
pedals, which have a mechanical control.
