Abstract
The presentation deals with digital electrical flight control system of the Airbus airplanes. This system is built to very stringent dependability requirements both in term of safety (the system must not output erroneous signals) and availability. System safety and availability principles along with assessment process are presented with an emphasis on their evolution and on future challenges.
