Digital Engine Control for V/STOL and V/TOL Aircraft

Abstract

Electronic engine controls manufactured by Dowty & Smiths Industries Controls Ltd. (DSIC) have already completed more than 171 million flying hours. This includes experience gained by Concorde using a full authority electronic analogue system. The advent of microprocessor technology has now brought the benefits of digital control within the grasp of all military and civil engine manufacturers.
