Abstract
A system for providing sideslip envelope protection includes a processor for obtaining values of a sideslip envelope indicative of operating conditions of the aircraft along an axis and for estimating a sideslip angle along the axis from at least one operating condition; and a comparer for comparing the sideslip angle with the sideslip envelope to generate an output value, where the processor determines a maximum yaw rate from the output value and scales the maximum yaw rate to generate a scaled yaw rate.
