Claim:
1. A method for providing in an aircraft a predefined nominal drive characteristic which comprises a speed/torque map or information concerning a response behavior of the aircraft or both, said method comprising: storing in a plurality of nominal drive characteristics of a trainer aircraft in a control device; driving a thrust generating element of a target aircraft by an electric motor having an actual drive characteristic which at least partially includes one of the stored nominal drive characteristics of the trainer aircraft but is not identical to stored nominal drive characteristics; setting with the control device of the target aircraft operating points of the electric motor solely according to the nominal drive characteristic through actuation of an operator device of the target aircraft; and switching with the control device of the target aircraft between nominal drive characteristics selected from the plurality of nominal drive characteristics in dependence on an actuation of a selector device of the control device of the target aircraft.
