Abstract: A flight control and engine control function for a multi-engine aircraft which automatically controls maximum thrust on the operating engine to a value lower than the nominal thrust limit schedule in the event of loss of thrust on another engine. The maximum engine thrust of the operating engine is controlled (limited) such that the resulting thrust asymmetry can be controlled at airspeeds lower than would otherwise be the case. The decrease in engine-out minimum control speed can reduce the limitation on landing speeds that would otherwise be caused by engine-out minimum control speed.
