Abstract
An automatic rollout control system has been developed for the Boeing 747 airplane. The rollout control system consists of three independent channels that control the rudders and nose gear steering mechanism. The action of the rudders and nose gear steering provides control of the lateral path of the airplane along the runaway from touchdown to a safe taxi speed. With the addition of this system, the capability of the airplane eventually will be extended to operate in category IHb conditions (less than 700 ft RVR, but not less than 150 ft RVR). The system requirements, developing of the control law, simulator results, and flight testing of the rollout control system, are described.
