1. This energy based control system i s generally applicable. Transfer to another airplane requires on 1y the elevator and thrust innerloop adaptation and implementation of the airplane specific flight envelope limits. For example, transfer and checkout on the simulator of the complete system with a l l modes from the 8-737 to 8-747 was accomplished i n 6 engineering man months, without changes to the energy based outerloop control system structure or gains.
