Abstract
Various implementations described herein are related to an aircraft having a multi-engine configuration with multiple engines. The aircraft may have a flight control system coupled to the multiple engines with a multi-engine interface. The flight control system may be configured to reduce fuel consumption of at least one engine of the multiple engines during reduced-engine operation by pulse modulating fuel delivery to the at least one engine of the multiple engines.
