A preliminary investigation was conducted regarding the use of throttles for emergency flight control of a multiengine aircraft.Several airplanes including a light twin-engine piston-powered airplane, jet trans-
Normally, the damage that results in a total loss of the primary flight controls of a jet transport airplane, including all engines on one side, would be catastrophic.In response, NASA Dryden has conceived an emergency flight control system that uses only the thrust of a wing-
The use of throttle control laws to provide adequate fying qualities for flightpath control in the event of a total loss of conventional flight control surface use was evaluated. The results are based on a simulation evaluation by transport re-
