The present invention relates to software for training an aircraft pilot to respond
to the failure of one or more engines of a multi-engine aircraft during flight.
The software simulates engine failure through the use of software imposed power
output limits on the one or more engines for which failure is simulated. In certain
embodiments, the software of the present invention sets one or more of the engine
condition gauges to a fictitious readings corresponding to readings that would
be displayed in the event of an actual engine failure.
