Abstract

A method includes detecting an asymmetric thrust condition involving first and second engines of an aircraft. The asymmetric thrust condition is associated with one of the engines providing more thrust than another of the engines. The method also includes, in response to detecting the asymmetric thrust condition, determining a modifier for one of the engines and applying the modifier to an acceleration schedule for that engine. The modifier alters the acceleration schedule for that engine to reduce asymmetric thrust between the engines. In some cases, the first engine is associated with a first thrust controller, the second engine is associated with a second thrust controller, the first thrust controller is configured to modify an acceleration schedule of the first engine in response to the asymmetric thrust condition, and the second thrust controller is configured to modify an acceleration schedule of the second engine in response to the asymmetric thrust condition.
