Zusammenfassung:	The present disclosure provides a method and a system for controlling operation of an engine of an aircraft. The method comprises, at a controller of the engine, obtaining an actual engine output power for the engine, the actual engine output power based on a propeller rotation speed and a propeller blade pitch angle; converting the actual engine output power to a predicted thrust value; determining an actual engine power limit associated with a thrust limit of a propeller coupled to the engine from the predicted thrust value; and setting a maximum engine power limit of the engine using the actual engine power limit associated with the thrust limit of the propeller.
