A gas turbine has a compressor providing compressed air, a combustion chamber provided with a burner, and an expansion turbine, wherein a bypass flow channel is also provided designed to supply compressed air past the burner and to supply a hot gas flow generated in the combustion chamber during operation of the gas turbine. The opening cross section of the bypass flow channel can be adjusted, and an adjustment unit is designed to adjust the opening cross section of the bypass flow channel such that the modification speed of the opening cross section is selected such that the relative combustion chamber pressure drop or a material temperature of the combustion chamber is substantially constant, in particular that the relative combustion chamber pressure drop or the material temperature of the combustion chamber does not vary by more than 10%.
