Un «pitch trim actuator» peut parfois être un vérin compensateur de Mach, mais il existe de nombreux avions auxquels la notion de Mach ne s'applique pas, mais qui sont quand même munis d'un «pitch trim actuator». Ce serait le cas, par exemple, du très populaire Dash8. Dans ce cas, on parlerait de «vérin de compensateur de profondeur», par exemple. Sur de nombreux avions, il n'y a pas de vérin distinct pour la compensation de Mach, mais simplement un circuit qui agit sur le compensateur de profondeur quand le centre de poussée recule à mesure que la vitesse de l'écoulement sur l'aile s'approche de la vitesse du son. 4, record 6, French, - compensateur%20de%20Mach

The somatosensory system consists of numerous pressure receptors contained within the muscles, tendons, joints, and skin. This system reacts to the sensations resulting from pressures or stretch on joints, muscles and skin and also from slight changes in the position of internal organs. These are the forces that act on the seated pilot in flight. It is closely associated with the vestibular system and to a lesser degree, the visual system. They allow the pilot to sense certain complex motions and forces of flight such as aircraft feel(buffet, control forces, rudder, trim force) and "G" forces. 2, record 10, English, - seat%2Dof%2Dthe%2Dpants%20flying

Speed-attitude correction is provided by the Mach trim compensation system. Mach trim compensation automatically provides forces to the control column(elevator) to compensate for nosedown pitching moments of the airplane at high Mach number. Control column position is effected by the Mach trim actuator installed at the lower part of the first officer's control column control mechanism. The actuator receives command signals from the stability augmentation computer. Mach number is computed from pitot and static air pressure input changes to the air data computer(ADC-1). The air data computer shapes the information and transmits it to the stability augmentation computer where it is further shaped and then transmitted to the actuator to command control column and elevator movement. 1, record 14, English, - Mach%20trim%20servo%20actuator

The electrical flying control system is based on two independent systems, the Elevator Aileron Computers(ELAC) and the Spoiler Elevator Computers(SEC). The Spoiler Elevator Computer System... consists of a trio of computers, which will produce commands in the roll axis by operating the two outer spoiler panels on each wing; speed-braking in flight by operating the three inner spoiler panels; lift-dumping after landing by raising all ten spoiler panels; stand-by pitch axis control in support of the ELAC by operating the elevators and automatic trim, also as a stand-by to the ELAC, by adjusting tailplane incidence. 1, record 16, English, - spoiler%20elevator%20computer

L'architecture des CDVE [commandes de vol électriques] comporte deux systèmes indépendants : l'ELAC (Elevator Aileron Computers = calculateurs de profondeur et d'ailerons) et le SEC (Spoiler and Elevator Computers = calculateurs de profondeur et des spoilers). Le système SEC [...] comporte trois calculateurs qui contrôlent la fonction roulis des quatre spoilers extérieurs, la fonction aérofrein au sol par le déploiement des dix spoilers, la fonction tangage en secours de l'ELAC par action sur la gouverne de profondeur, et enfin la fonction auto-trim, également en secours de l'ELAC, par action sur le stabilisateur horizontal. 1, record 16, French, - calculateur%20de%20profondeur%20et%20des%20spoilers
