IS&S Announces Webinar to Address Safety and Operational Advantages of Autothrottles
October 30 2020 - 11:00AM
Business Wire
Textron has recently announced the King Air 360 with a
revolutionary auto-thrust system, ThrustSense® that greatly reduces
pilot workload by managing airspeed control in all phases of
flight. One of the most significant features of this system is the
revolutionary protection it offers in engine-out (loss of engine)
situations. When only one engine is operating and as airspeed
bleeds down to critically low levels, an aircraft faces
catastrophic loss of directional control. Additionally, with the
amount of power and torque output available in most turboprop
engines today, the likelihood of directional control challenges is
even more pronounced, as the good engine is trying to make up for
the complete power loss from the failed engine on the other
side.
On November 4, 2020 at 1:30 pm Eastern, Aviation International
News (AIN), the leading news source to the aviation industry, will
conduct a webinar on the safety attributes of auto throttles in
turboprop twin engine airplanes. The technology and functionality
of the ThrustSense® system will be discussed in detail, and the
influence it will have on operational safety and preservation of
life in the future. Matt Thurber, AIN's Editor-in-Chief, will
moderate the webinar and authoritative perspective will be provided
by Tom Grunbeck, IS&S’s Director of Autothrottle Programs, and
Aaron Tobias, FAA consultant Designated Engineering Representative
and Flight Test Pilot. Please feel free to register for the webinar
