Claim 0:
1. A control system for a high lift assembly comprising at least one flap of a trailing edge of an aircraft, the high lift assembly being controllable into at least two different aerodynamic configurations of different lift, the control system comprising:
a manual control device operable by an aircraft pilot, the manual control device comprising at least one movable member and a base body, the movable member being movable relative to the base body;, the movable member being movable relative to the base body between positions including a rest position and a distinct first position and second position, the manual control device comprising a device for resiliently returning the movable member to the rest position, the manual control device being suitable for emitting at least one signal representative of the position reached by the movable member with respect to the base body, when the movable member reaches either the first position or the second position, in order to cause the high lift assembly to switch between two of the aerodynamic configurations,
wherein the first and second positions define stop positions for the movement of the movable member relative to the base body and the rest position forms the only stable position of the movable member relative to the base body.
