This article presents a methodology to assess the robust stability and the robust performance of automatic flight control systems (AFCS). The mathematical tool used in the proposed methodology is the structured singular value, µ. For comparison purposes, the paper uses a method largely employed in the aircraft industry to measure the quoted AFCS attributes. The issues existing in this methodology are discussed and it is shown that the proposed method presents one elegant path to deal with the mentioned drawbacks. A step by step procedure is provided, incorporating the advantages offered by the approach currently used in the industry and eliminating its weaknesses.
