Model based design has become a standard in aero space industry. Prior to implementation of any physical system, it is better to test the behavior of the system in real environment, where complexity of design and huge cost is involved particularly in avionics. Flight control systems have dynamic and complex behavior. To study the dynamic behavior of flight control systems, model based design approach is preferable. The Model adapts all functionalities of the actual system, so it helps to study the actual system behavior in real time. From the initiation phase to the implementation phase there may be a lot of changes which have been taken place in the design; these changes can take place according to the simulation results of a respective system model. Simulation platform provides the real time environment to the model, so that validation of the system behavior could be done before it is going to the implementation phase. This paper gives insights to the scope and applicability of different simulation tools such as MATLAB/Simulink, Saber, and LabVIEW for flight controls modeling and design.
