The objective of the flare path is to reduce aircraft rate of descent for a safe touchdown. In this lesson, an exponential rate of descent model is derived and incorporated in a flare path control loop as part of an automatic landing system. Lesson topics include the development of the closed loop airspeed and pitch controlled aircraft, altitude modeling, flare path control development, and simulation. Throughout control architecture development, frequency domain block diagrams are paired with their linear state space form. The closed loop flare path is simulated for a transport aircraft transitioning from the glide path at 40ft. The flare path control system is shown effective at reducing the rate of descent for safe touchdown.
