A control system for an aircraft includes an actuation section that moves lift-enhancing devices as a function of received control orders, a control member operable by a pilot of the aircraft, and a control unit that includes a control section that produces control orders, as a function of actuation of the control member, so as to control the actuation section to bring the lift-enhancing devices into a predetermined position. The control unit further includes a device that produces automatically auxiliary control orders which are transmitted to the actuation section to automatically retract the lift-enhancing devices when the aircraft is in a first flight condition and another device that automatically disables control orders produced by the control section following actuation of the control member to deploy the lift-enhancing devices when the aircraft is in a second flight condition.
