Abstract

See full text

A control device for an aircraft is disclosed including a push-button switch that is configured to be held in a depressed position by a pilot during taxiing of the aircraft. The push-button switch is configured to return automatically to a released position if it is not held in the depressed position by the pilot. The control device is configured to output a command for braking to a braking system of the aircraft, if the push-button switch moves to the released position during taxiing of the aircraft and does not return to the depressed position within a set time. The button may be provided on a tiller. A method of detecting on-board pilot incapacitation during an aircraft taxi phase is also disclosed.
