I think this is also the kind of system the original poster was thinking
of, where the aircraft is kept from departing from controlled flight by
the flight control computer overriding the pilot inputs and keeping the
aircraft right on the edge of its flight envelope.
And would crash without the computer? As I understand it, a human
pilot can't control the B-2 unaided. Is that correct, and would that
be a fair definition of fly-by-wire?
