Current practice for flight control validation relies heavily on linear analyses and nonlinear, high-fidelity simulations. This process would be enhanced by the addition of nonlinear analyses of the flight control system. This paper demonstrates the use of region of attraction estimation for studying nonlinear effects. A nonlinear polynomial model is constructed for the longitudinal dynamics of NASA's Generic Transport Model aircraft. A polynomial model for the short period dynamics is obtained by decoupling this mode from the nonlinear longitudinal model. Polynomial optimization techniques are applied to estimate region of attractions around trim conditions.
