ABSTRACT
Around 80 percent of jet aircraft accidents occur during take-off and landing phases of flight and close to an airport because of varied weather conditions. Passengers, as well as nearby communities are, therefore at a heightened risk of death or serious injury. Smart products and intelligent manufacturing processes are becoming increasingly common and complex and this trend is expected to continue. However, there are a number of issues associated with incorporating intelligence in a complex system including; cost, weight, volume, heat, speed and accuracy concerns. And fuzzy logic control can provide advantages in some or all of these areas in a variety of applications.
The objective is to design fuzzy based aircraft take-off and landing control system which senses the instantaneously changed weather conditions. It is a complex system of several critical inputs
