PATENTS: Awarded Patent No. 6,675,076 System, Autopilot Supplement Assembly and Method for Increasing Autopilot Control Authority, on January 6th , 2004. This patent provides for a method of increasing the autopilot authority to accommodate an automatic ground collision avoidance system. Awarded Patent No. 6,062,715 Computer Implemented Aircraft Simulation Method and Apparatus", in May 2000. This was for an algorithm that reduces simulation transport delay by creating a second order model that resides in the visual system preprocessor. The coefficients of the second order transfer function are configured dynamically by observing the real time aircraft
