A method of controlling an elevator of an aircraft, comprising: identifying a current stabilizer angle of incidence of an aircraft, the aircraft including a stabilizer and an elevator pivotably coupled to the stabilizer; comparing the current stabilizer angle of incidence with a threshold stabilizer angle of incidence; selecting an elevator position limit (374, 376) that is more restrictive if the current stabilizer angle of incidence is greater than or equal to the threshold stabilizer angle of incidence; and moving the elevator to an elevator position that is no greater than the elevator position limit (374, 376); wherein the selecting of the elevator position limit (374, 376) includes: selecting an elevator position limit (374, 376) from a first table of a first pair of lookup tables (418, 420) if the current stabilizer angle of incidence is greater than or equal to the threshold stabilizer angle of incidence; and selecting the elevator position limit (374, 376) from a second table of the first pair of lookup tables (418, 420) if the current stabilizer angle of incidence is below the threshold stabilizer angle of incidence wherein the elevator position limit (374, 376) is an upper elevator position limit associated with a given airspeed and Mach number, and wherein the selecting of the elevator position limit (374, 376) further includes: selecting a lower elevator position limit from a second pair of lookup tables (418, 420), the lower elevator position limit associated with the given airspeed and Mach number; and wherein a magnitude of the lower elevator position limit is greater than a magnitude of the upper elevator position limit if the current stabilizer angle of incidence is negative, and the magnitude of the lower elevator position is less than a magnitude of the upper elevator position limit if the current stabilizer angle of incidence is positive. identifying a current stabilizer angle of incidence of an aircraft, the aircraft including a stabilizer and an elevator pivotably coupled to the stabilizer; comparing the current stabilizer angle of incidence with a threshold stabilizer angle of incidence; selecting an elevator position limit (374, 376) that is more restrictive if the current stabilizer angle of incidence is greater than or equal to the threshold stabilizer angle of incidence; and moving the elevator to an elevator position that is no greater than the elevator position limit (374, 376); wherein the selecting of the elevator position limit (374, 376) includes: selecting an elevator position limit (374, 376) from a first table of a first pair of lookup tables (418, 420) if the current stabilizer angle of incidence is greater than or equal to the threshold stabilizer angle of incidence; and selecting the elevator position limit (374, 376) from a second table of the first pair of lookup tables (418, 420) if the current stabilizer angle of incidence is below the threshold stabilizer angle of incidence selecting an elevator position limit (374, 376) from a first table of a first pair of lookup tables (418, 420) if the current stabilizer angle of incidence is greater than or equal to the threshold stabilizer angle of incidence; and selecting the elevator position limit (374, 376) from a second table of the first pair of lookup tables (418, 420) if the current stabilizer angle of incidence is below the threshold stabilizer angle of incidence wherein the elevator position limit (374, 376) is an upper elevator position limit associated with a given airspeed and Mach number, and wherein the selecting of the elevator position limit (374, 376) further includes: selecting a lower elevator position limit from a second pair of lookup tables (418, 420), the lower elevator position limit associated with the given airspeed and Mach number; and wherein a magnitude of the lower elevator position limit is greater than a magnitude of the upper elevator position limit if the current stabilizer angle of incidence is negative, and the magnitude of the lower elevator position is less than a magnitude of the upper elevator position limit if the current stabilizer angle of incidence is positive. selecting a lower elevator position limit from a second pair of lookup tables (418, 420), the lower elevator position limit associated with the given airspeed and Mach number; and wherein a magnitude of the lower elevator position limit is greater than a magnitude of the upper elevator position limit if the current stabilizer angle of incidence is negative, and the magnitude of the lower elevator position is less than a magnitude of the upper elevator position limit if the current stabilizer angle of incidence is positive.
