Abstract
A fuel control for a gas turbine engine is operable in a training mode in addition to the conventional automatic and manual back-up modes. In the training mode the manual mode is simulated, with signals commensurate with operator action being delivered to the fuel metering valve actuator, while protection against exceeding the safe operating limits of the engine is provided.
