Knowledge of the safe maneuvering envelope is of vital importance to prevent loss of control aircraft accidents. In this paper, determination of the safe maneuvering envelope is addressed in a reachability framework. The forwards and backwards reachable sets for a set of initial trim conditions are obtained by solving a Hamilton Jacobi partial differential equation through a semi-Lagriangian method. Results obtained using this approach are presented for a nonlinear, high-fidelity, F-16 aircraft model.
