Abstract
Loss of aircraft from ground-fire strikes on hydraulic systems and primary flight controls was the incentive for developing the Flow Difference Sensor, a device that cuts out flow in damaged lines and bypasses it to effect minimum loss of fluid. This system decreases aircraft vulnerability greatly and reduces fire hazard. This paper describes the design, operation, and flight qualification tests of the instrument.
