An engine control system for a first aircraft belonging to a family of aircraft which includes at least a second aircraft, the first aircraft having a maximum mass which is greater, within a predetermined limit, than that of the second aircraft. For an engine of the first aircraft, a first thrust command law controls a thrust of an engine of the first aircraft during take-off phase (T), and a second thrust command law, controls a thrust of the engine to correspond with a part of the thrust command laws applicable to the second aircraft during all other flight phases (R) of the first aircraft. The transition from one flight phase to another is detected to supply the engine with a control signal corresponding to one or the other of the first thrust command law or the second thrust command law.

[ We claim:] [1.] An engine control system for a first aircraft belonging to a family of aircraft which further includes at least a second aircraft, and wherein said first aircraft has a maximum mass which is greater, within a predetermined limit, than a maximum mass of said second aircraft, and wherein said engine control system includes thrust command means for providing thrust command laws for at least one engine of said first aircraft, said second aircraft having thrust command laws applicable thereto, said thrust command laws for said first aircraft comprising:a first thrust command law controlling a thrust of said at least one engine of said first aircraft for use during a take-off phase;a second thrust command law controlling a thrust of said at least one engine to correspond with a part of said thrust command laws applicable to said second aircraft for use during at least one flight phase other than said take-off phase; andsaid engine control system further comprising detecting means for detecting a transition between said take-off phase and said at least one flight phase other than said take-off phase so that said thrust command means supplies said at least one engine of said first aircraft with at least one control signal corresponding to one or the other of said first thrust command law and said second thrust command law.
