  2. Helicopter flight controls - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicopter_flight_controls

    Helicopter rotors are designed to operate at a specific rotational speed. The throttle controls the power of the engine, which is connected to the rotor by a transmission. The throttle setting must maintain enough engine power to keep the rotor speed within the limits where the rotor produces enough lift for flight.

    The safety throttle is an additional layer of protection in this case, since the chain brake should be applied before starting a saw in any context. The pictured model has an enlarged lock-out or 'dead man' switch which, when released, also activates the chain brake, thus instantly halting the running chain as well as disengaging the throttle.

    According to Gulfstream, this had been intended to prevent pilots from attempting to take off with the gust lock engaged. However, post-accident testing on other Gulfstream-IV airplanes found that, with the gust lock handle in the ON position, the forward throttle lever movement that could be achieved was three to four times greater than intended.

  5. Engine order telegraph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_order_telegraph

    On most modern vessels with direct combustion engines or electric propulsors, the main control handle on the bridge acts as a direct throttle with no intervening engine room personnel. As such, it is regarded under the rules of marine classification societies as a remote control device rather than an EOT, though it is still often referred to by ...

  6. Aircraft engine controls - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_engine_controls

    As the throttle is closed, this pressure is reduced due to restricting the fuel/air mixture available to the engine, i.e. causing it to operate at lower power than it is capable of producing. Oil temperature gauge - Indicates the engine oil temperature. Oil pressure gauge - Indicates the supply pressure of the engine lubricant.

  7. Thrust lever - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrust_lever

    Thrust levers in a Boeing 747 Classic. The center and rear levers are used during flight, while the forward levers control reverse thrust.. Thrust levers or throttle levers are found in the cockpit of aircraft, and are used by the pilot, copilot, flight engineer, or autopilot to control the thrust output of the aircraft's engines, by controlling the fuel flow to those engines.
