Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for controlling and maintaining control over an aircraft.
  • the invention relates to a method for preventing aircraft hijacking.
  • Control over an aircraft in the air belongs to the pilot and the corresponding, which control can be performed via a manual system and an autopilot.
  • One object of the present invention is to offer solutions to the problem of eliminating the possibilities to, thus, perform unauthorized control over an aircraft.
  • the method according to the invention has the purpose to prevent e.g. that hijacked aircraft can reach the intended goal, e.g. as took place September 11, 2003.
  • the method includes a combination of a remote control performed from the ground by means of an apparatus specified here of the mechanical steering mechanism used in the aircraft as well as the autopilot installed in the aircraft, which can put the mechanical steering mechanism out of function.
  • This can take place in dif- ferent ways, e.g. by explosives installed in the aircraft, which explosives when detonated mechanically prevents the use of the mechanical steering mechanism.
  • a different computer program is exchanged for the computer program normally used during the flight and makes it possible to take over the control from the normal control program.
  • the apparatus used make possible a locking of the computer control of the aircraft to the aircraft course used in the computer program.
  • the locking may, preferably, be unlocked only by the transmitter used in the program, e.g. the transmitter on the airport to which the aircraft is destined or the corresponding landing track.
  • the remotely controlled program described above is performed by known technique.
  • the invention does not infringe the security of the aircraft staff and passengers.
  • the course of the aircraft is changed also in the case of no autopilot installation in the aircraft, so that the course follows a control program transferred from the ground and/or controlled different control program, which excludes every other program and which control cannot be changed by any other than the station that transmits and or controls the control program now mentioned.
  • the change of the course of the aircraft so that the course follows a different control program directed from e.g. the ground at e.g. a terrorist attack
  • the method according to the invention also comprises automatic closing of a slide door installed especially for this purpose, which door shields the cockpit from the rest of the aircraft.
  • the door is preferably manufactured of hardly compressed plastic with the same hardness as steel or higher degree of hardness than that of steel, e.g. of a plastic of the same type as is used for spaceships according to american standards.
  • This door may according to one embodiment also be closed manually from the cockpit according to the orders of the pilot e.g. before the flight starts. It is opened in the corresponding way e.g. after the termination of the flight.
  • N 2 0 dinitro- genoxide gas
  • the change of the course of the aircraft is, as mentioned, activated by activation of any of the EMERGENCY controls installed in the aircraft, either in the pentry or the cockpit.
  • a further possibility to activate the change of the course of the aircraft according to the invention comprises providing the steering wheel or the corresponding wheel in the aeroplane with a built-in contact which during the flight shall be kept pushed in by the pilot.
  • the EMERGENCY alarm is activated when the pressure from the hand of the pilot disappears.
  • the invention is applied to some other kind of vehicle than an aircraft, such as a ship, a bus or similar vehicle.
