Safe Flight Auto Throttle Is Standard on Legacy 650E
AutoPower throttle system reduces pilot workload.

Safe Flight’s AutoPower Automatic Throttle System (ATS) will be standard equipment on Embraer’s new Legacy 650E large-cabin jet. The system is a full regime automatic throttle that provides automatic thrust schedule settings as well as IAS/Mach speed control from takeoff through landing phases of flight.

The ATS is integrated with Honeywell’s Primus Elite avionics suite, decreasing pilot workload and improving situational awareness. The system will be covered by international certification through Embraer, which will install the equipment at its factory, as well as being available for retrofit. Initial production deliveries and entry into service is expected by the end of 2017.
