Aircraft flight control
First Claim
1. An aircraft flight control comprising a pitch and roll control stick suitable for being turned about a pitch axis (AXTANG) and a roll axis (AXROLL) that are mutually perpendicular, said control stick being provided with a handle and a root interconnected by an intermediate segment of said control stick, wherein the flight control comprises a pitch shaft and a roll shaft that are mutually perpendicular for controlling the aircraft in pitching and rolling by performing turning movements respectively about said pitch and roll axes (AXTANG and AXROLL) under drive from said control stick, said control stick passing through an oblong orifice formed in said pitch shaft, said root is mechanically connected to the roll shaft by a mechanical connection while said intermediate segment is connected to the pitch shaft by a connection pin that passes through said intermediate segment and that is arranged axially in said oblong orifice, wherein said mechanical connection includes a compass linkage provided with first and second branches, said first branch being hinged to the root of the control stick and to a first end zone of the second branch.
