An autothrottle (automatic throttle; also known as autothrust, A/T, or A/THR) is a system that allows a pilot to control the power setting of an aircraft's engines by specifying a desired flight characteristic, rather than manually controlling the fuel flow.

2022年6月2日 · Understanding how to use autothrottles efficiently is one of the best tools available for you in the flight deck. If you've flown with autothrottles before, this article may refresh the basics but is primarily intended to provide a foundation to prepare for aircraft-specific training.

An Automatic Throttle, generally referred to in aviation as autothrottle or autothrust (depending upon manufacturer), is an electronic or electro-mechanical device which enables a pilot to control the thrust/power setting of the aircraft engines by selection of a specific flight profile, or parameter, rather than by controlling fuel flow via ...

2014年9月2日 · The Autothrottle (A/T) is part of the Automatic Flight System (AFS) comprising the Autopilot Flight Director System (AFDS) and the autothrottle. The A/T provides automatic thrust control through all phases of flight.

2 天之前 · During an instrument approach or on a standard terminal arrival route (STAR), for example, the autothrottles relieve the pilot of the throttle-jockeying work during required speed changes. If the autothrottles are switched off or become inoperative, the flying pilot can easily revert to flying the aircraft by adjusting the throttles manually.

2024年5月21日 · Auto-throttles are advanced systems utilized in modern aircraft to automatically regulate engine thrust. This technology enhances flight management by adjusting power settings during various phases of flight, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency.

Jet engine's throttle is pretty straight forward - move forward, more power. The computer automatically manages fuel flow to prevent surge, flameout and N1 overshoot. On a piston engine you have three - a mixture lever, a propeller lever and a throttle lever.

2006年8月11日 · Safe Flight is now offering its AutoPower system in midsize business jets, when before it had only been installed in airline and large business jets such as Gulfstreams and Global Expresses. It's...
