Abstract

Trimming process for adapting a first control loop of a controllable, automatically controlled reference system, which is or represents an aircraft, to a second control loop which simulates the reference system, Flying condition values including controlled variables, which are returned in each control loop for the purpose of the control, are detected, and both control loops are acted upon by the same desired input data. In the first process loop, a conversion of the unreturned flying condition values of the airplane model takes place to the values of the corresponding flying condition values of the reference system. The second process loop is provided for the adaptation of the returned condition values of the airplane simulation system to the corresponding condition values of the reference system.
