A motionless skew detection system for an aircraft is disclosed, and includes a flight control surface (18) of an aircraft wing (14), two drive mechanisms (20) for operating the flight control surface (18), a first load sensor (50) and a second load sensor (52) for each of the two drive mechanisms (20), and a control module (80). Each of the two drive mechanisms (20) are located on opposing sides of the flight control surface (18) and each of the two drive mechanisms (20) includes at least a first linkage (34) including a first outer surface and a second linkage (38) including a second outer surface. The first load sensor (50) is disposed along the first outer surface of the first linkage (34) and the second load sensor (52) is disposed along the second outer surface of the second linkage (38). The control module (80) is in signal communication with the first load sensor (50) and the second load sensor (52) of each drive mechanism.
