Abstract: An engine system for an aircraft includes a first gas turbine engine, a second gas turbine engine, and a control system. The control system is configured to operate the first gas turbine engine with a sub-idle fuel burn schedule based on detecting landing of the aircraft, where the sub-idle fuel burn schedule includes a reduction of an idle fuel burn schedule. The control system is configured to operate the second gas turbine engine with the idle fuel burn schedule based on detecting landing of the aircraft.

Abstract: Examples described herein provide a method for aircraft engine anomaly detection based on an odor. The method includes receiving data indicative of the odor associated with an aircraft engine of an aircraft. The method further includes analyzing the data to determine whether an anomaly associated with the aircraft has occurred. The method further includes responsive to determining that an anomaly associated with the aircraft has occurred, implementing a corrective action based at least in part on the data.

Abstract: An engine system for an aircraft includes a gas turbine engine and a control system. The control system is configured to motor the gas turbine engine, absent fuel burn, during a taxi mode of the aircraft. The control system is further configured to accelerate a motoring speed of the gas turbine engine, absent fuel burn, above an idle speed of the gas turbine engine to provide propulsion during the taxi mode. The control system is configured to decrease the motoring speed of the gas turbine engine, absent fuel burn, based on a change in a starting mode of the gas turbine engine or the aircraft reaching a targeted new position.

Abstract: An engine system for an aircraft includes a first gas turbine engine, a second gas turbine engine, and a control system. The control system is configured to operate the first gas turbine engine with an idle fuel burn schedule in a taxi mode of the aircraft and operate the second gas turbine engine with a sub-idle fuel burn schedule in the taxi mode of the aircraft. The sub-idle fuel burn schedule includes a reduction of the idle fuel burn schedule. A fuel flow of the first gas turbine engine and the second gas turbine engine is increased above the idle fuel burn schedule prior to takeoff of the aircraft.

Abstract: An engine system for an aircraft includes a first gas turbine engine, a second gas turbine engine, and a control system. The control system is configured to operate the first gas turbine engine with an idle fuel burn schedule in a taxi mode of the aircraft and dry crank the second gas turbine engine in a first pre-takeoff portion of the taxi mode to cool the second gas turbine engine absent fuel burn by the second gas turbine engine. The control system operates the second gas turbine engine with a sub-idle fuel burn schedule in a second pre-takeoff portion of the taxi mode of the aircraft. The sub-idle fuel burn schedule includes a reduction of the idle fuel burn schedule. A fuel flow of the first gas turbine engine and the second gas turbine engine is increased above the idle fuel burn schedule prior to takeoff of the aircraft.
