2. Autothrottle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autothrottle

   Thrust levers of an A320 set to the autothrust position during cruise flight. An autothrottle (automatic throttle; also known as autothrust, A/T, or A/THR) is a system that allows a pilot to control the power setting of an aircraft's engines by specifying a desired flight characteristic, rather than manually controlling the fuel flow.

3. Takeoff/go-around switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takeoff/go-around_switch

   A takeoff/go-around switch (TO/GA or TOGA; / ˈ t oʊ ɡ ə /) is a switch on the autothrottle of modern large aircraft, with two modes: takeoff (TO) and go-around (GA). The mode is dependent on the phase of flight; usually, on approach to land, the autopilot will be set to approach mode, therefore if the TO/GA switch is pressed it will activate the go-around mode of the autothrottle (about 90 ...

4. Electronic throttle control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_throttle_control

   A typical ETC system consists of three major components: (i) an accelerator pedal module (ideally with two or more independent sensors), (ii) a throttle valve that can be opened and closed by an electric motor (sometimes referred to as an electric or electronic throttle body (ETB)), and (iii) a powertrain or engine control module (PCM or ECM).

5. 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.

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.
