ABSTRACT:
An engine controller system maintains a desired mach number for an aircraft. The fan speed of a slave engine is synchronized with the fan speed of a master engine. A previous Mach number value is compared with an actual Mach number value to determine a Mach number error. The resulting error corresponds to a fan speed which increases or decreases engine thrust to achieve a Mach number error equal to zero, maintaining the desired aircraft Mach number.
