This paper deals with a fault-tolerant flight control system where the aircraft is manually controlled by pilots. Our previous research demonstrated that Simple Adaptive Control (SAC) with PID compensator could automatically control an aircraft even after the dynamic characteristics change due to aircraft damage only under predetermined desired value. Now we focus on the interaction between pilot’s input and the adaptive controller. In this paper, we installed the adaptive controller in the flight simulator in order to check the basic performance of the developed system. The interaction will be presented in the final paper.
