Zusammenfassung:A method and apparatus for monitoring an aircraft (202). A pilot control input signal (224) is received. A response of a control surface system (206) controlled by a flight control model (230) is identified using the pilot control input signal (224). An alert (240) is generated when the control surface system (206) reaches a threshold (241) with respect to the control surface system (206) becoming saturated.
