Abstract

System and related operating method are provided for landing an aircraft. An exemplary method involves determining that an amount of available energy associated with an energy source onboard the aircraft is less than a predicted amount of energy required to land the aircraft in accordance with a flight plan or other procedure currently being flown. Thereafter, the method automatically operates the aircraft to descend using an unregulated vertical speed and regulates an orientation of the aircraft to a reference orientation. Thereafter, when the altitude of the aircraft is below a threshold, the method automatically operates the aircraft to descend using a different control scheme to regulate a lateral position of the aircraft to a lateral trajectory to a landing location while regulating a velocity of the aircraft using a cost function.
