Abstract Loss of control in general aviation is responsible for 48% of reported accidents. The United States government has encouraged ulterior training in the field of stall recovery and understanding of the various factors that cause loss of control events. Although recommendations have been implemented, loss of control related accidents continue to mark a high percentage among aviation accidents. This paper proposes an enhanced autonomous loss of control recovery avionic, developed upon the Trajectory Recovery System (TRS). The newly developed system (TRS Mk.2) is described in this document with regards to its design characteristics and high-level requirements. The system will provide autonomous stall recovery, backup information to avoid workload spikes in case of system failure, and a parameter summary to inform the pilot of the recovery’s performance. The system is also proposed as a means to increase pilot training, as a byproduct of recovering from real LOC events.
