A flight control system for an aircraft comprises a flight control computer system connected via a bus system with a plurality of bus nodes, which each are configured to at least one of controlling an associated aircraft device based on command messages received from the flight control computer system via the bus system and sending information messages to the flight control computer system via the bus system. The bus system is a redundant bus system comprising plural independent bus sub-systems, wherein each bus node is configured to communicate with the flight control computer system via two different bus sub-systems, wherein each bus node further is configured to communicate with the flight control computer system on basis of an associated predetermined bus communication protocol via a first bus sub-system and on basis of an associated predetermined bus communication protocol via a second bus sub-system.
