When the aircraft's sensors detect gusts, the flight control computers automatically and independently deflect the ailerons, elevators, and spoilers.
Mastering the Boeing 787 requires a fundamental shift in how flight crews conceptualize aircraft systems. By studying the exclusive architectures documented within the 787 FCOM, pilots can transition from traditional mechanical systems management to overseeing a highly integrated, software-driven, more-electric flight ecosystem. 787 fcom exclusive
The 787's Flight Control System, detailed in the FCOM’s Systems Description, uses advanced "Fly-By-Wire" technology. Control Modes: When the aircraft's sensors detect gusts, the flight
Instead of engine bleed air, the 787 uses four electrically driven Cabin Air Compressors (CACs). This improves fuel efficiency and ensures cabin air is never contaminated by engine fumes. Electric Wing Anti-Ice: When the aircraft's sensors detect gusts
