Each control surface on an aircraft has a hinge of some sort. By moving the control, there is an aerodynamic moment about the hinge. The pilot must provide the moment (force)to counter that hinge moment. The feedback of

this required force to the pilot is an additional cue to help him to fly the aircraft.
