What is the priority logic if there is a dual input on the side sticks?

The priority logic for dual inputs on the side sticks in the Dassault Falcon 7X is designed to ensure clarity and control in situations where both pilots may be providing input. In this context, the last pilot to press and hold the Priority Pushbutton effectively gains control. This mechanism ensures that the pilot currently in command can override the other pilot's inputs, allowing for a smooth transition of control when necessary.

This design is critical for maintaining safety and ensuring that one pilot can dominate control during critical phases of flight or when the need for decisive action arises. By holding the Priority Pushbutton, the active pilot confirms their intention to take control, which prevents any confusion or conflict between the two inputs.

Other options, such as the first pilot gaining control, could lead to situations where input from other pilots is not appropriately overridden, increasing the risk of miscommunication. Additionally, having the aircraft override all inputs wouldn't allow for necessary pilot command at crucial moments. Averaging inputs between both pilots contradicts the need for decisive control and could lead to ineffective or conflicting commands. Thus, the priority logic reinforces clear and direct control dynamics during flight operations.
