1. A control device (1) for air vehicles to operate the air vehicle and to control compatibility of inputs entered by a pilot to a control panel (CP) for fulfillment of desired operations and also to enter inputs automatically to a control panel (CP) independent of a pilot when predetermined action are met, characterized by the following:
a body (2) having a structure for placing on the air vehicle control panel (CP),
input tools (3) arranged on the body (2), wherein any of the input tools (3) can at least partially cover the input tools on air vehicle control panel (ID), wherein any of the input tools (3) has a form of a key located on the control panel (CP) and/or has a form of a control bar located on the control panel (CP),
at least one input tool drive unit (4) driving the input tool (3) located in the body (2) and associated with each input tool (3) to transmit the input to the associated input tool (3) to the input tool on air vehicle control panel (ID),
at least one memory unit (5) located in the body (2) for recording input data to be given to the control panel (CP) according to predetermined conditions,
at least one processor unit (6) located in the body (2) in communication with the input tool (3), the input tool drive unit (4) and the memory unit (5) and structured as follows;
to communicate with the memory unit (5) by sensing the pilot-driven input tools (3),
check if input given to input tool (3) which is activated by the pilot in accordance with the data stored in the memory unit (5) is valid input in the present case,
if it indicates that the input is a valid input at the end of check, to operate the concerned input tool drive unit (4) associated with the input tools (3) for transmitting said input tools (3) to the input tool on air vehicle control panel (ID) matching the input tool (3) of the input and
if it indicates that the input is not a valid input at the end of check, not to operate the concerned input tool drive unit (4) to inhibit transmission of the pilot-activated input tool (3) to the input tool on air vehicle control panel (ID) matching the input tool (3) of the input.
