Abstract
A hydraulic system of an aircraft may include a system pump configured to provide hydraulic fluid to the hydraulic system at a first working pressure. The hydraulic system may further include a booster pump configured to supply hydraulic fluid to at least one boostable actuator at a second working pressure higher than the first working pressure. The boostable actuator may be operatively coupled to and configured to actuate at least one flight control surface of an aircraft.
