Abstract

An inceptor apparatus (30a; 30b) for an aircraft comprises a primary inceptor member (32a; 32b) provided in the form of a stick member having a grip portion, at which the stick member can be gripped by a pilot's hand, and a secondary inceptor member (50a; 50b) provided at an upper portion of the primary inceptor member (32a; 32b) and having an actuating portion, at which the secondary inceptor member can be manually actuated by a pilot's thumb. Both inceptor members (32a, 50a; 32b, 50b) have associated a respective sensor assembly which is provided to generate electronic flight control signals or commands in response to at least one of i) pivoting movements of the respective inceptor member (32a; 32b; 50a; 50b) around each of two independent maneuvering axes associated to the inceptor member, ii) forces acting on or via the respective inceptor member in pivoting directions with respect to each of the maneuvering axes, and iii) lateral flexing or bending of the respective inceptor member. According to one aspect of the invention, a flight control computer system (12) for an aircraft has at least one such inceptor apparatus (30a, 30b) and is configured to effect the flight control in a primary control mode based on flight control signals or commands corresponding to or being based on the electronic flight control signals or commands generated by the primary sensor assembly (40a; 40b) of the inceptor apparatus (30a; 30b) and to effect the flight control in a secondary control mode based on flight control signals or commands corresponding to or being based on the electronic flight control signals or commands generated by the secondary sensor assembly (62a; 62b) of the inceptor apparatus (30a; 30b).
