Extract

Some discussion of the L-1011 analog system will be given before discussing the problems and advantages of digital implementation. It is the most advanced flight control system in operation today and one for which Category III certification was achieved simultaneously with the airframe certification. All L-1011s have been delivered with a full Category III system and all operators are performing automatic landings in service.
