In an embodiment, a method for aircraft weight estimation is provided that includes determining a weight signal based on a dynamic pressure signal, a calibrated angle of attack signal, a lift coefficient signal, a load factor signal, and a wing surface area. In another embodiment, a method to estimate aircraft weight is provided that includes determining a weight based on historical flight data relating horizontal control surface position to dynamic pressure. In another embodiment, a system for continuously estimating aircraft weight during flight is provided that includes a pitot-static subsystem, an angle of attack indicator, an accelerometer, a controller configured to provide a weight signal, and a signal filter for filtering the weight signal to determine a stable aircraft weight.
