The pedestal aisle stand assembly typically includes the Throttle Control Module flap, speed brake, trim and fuel control modules, as well as provisions for other avionics equipment, such as displays, cursor control devices etc. A major part of the Cockpit Pedestal System is the Throttle Control Modules (TCM), The TCM is used by pilots to modulate engine thrust via electronic signals sent to the engines FADEC system. In autopilot mode the TCM levers are motor driven to indicate to the pilot the engine thrust setting being selected by the auto pilot system. Levers are also used upon landing to control reverse thrust of the engines. Our TCM’s are designed and certified on multiple platforms and across all markets.
