Abstract
In this paper, we show a fuzzy control optimization using genetic algorithms, and this optimization helps us to improve the flight control of an airplane. To control the flight control of the airplane, fuzzy systems were used to control the stability of the airplane. In this paper, the fuzzy systems and the behavior of the airplane are explained to understand the complete work.
