We propose a method of controlling an aircraft having multiple configurations or modes, wherein each configuration is controlled by a different control law implemented by a flight control device and transition from one configuration to another configuration is achieved by gradually blending out a control law for said one configuration and by gradually increasing an impact of a control law for said other configuration in said flight control device based on an estimated flight condition of the aircraft by dynamically adjusting, in said flight control device, respective maximum and minimum limit values of control volumes, which control volumes are defined by parameter ranges of control parameters in connection with a corresponding control law for said one configuration and for said other configuration, respectively.
