Zusammenfassung:Aircraft, engine electronic controller systems, and methods for controlling thrust in a no dwell zone are provided. In one example, an aircraft includes a first engine that includes a first compressor fan rotating at a first speed and a second engine that includes a second compressor fan rotating at a second speed. First and second engine electronic controllers receive engine thrust commands and are in communication with the first and second engines, respectively. When the engine thrust commands correspond to an engine response within a no dwell zone, the first engine electronic controller directs the first engine to have the first speed at or below a compressor fan speed lower boundary and the second engine electronic controller directs the second engine to have the second speed at or above the compressor fan speed upper boundary to produce an overall average thrust within the no dwell zone.
