What Does TCL Stand For?
TCL stands for Thrust Control Lever
TCL, or Thrust Control Lever, is a critical component in aviation and spacecraft systems that allows pilots and operators to manage and adjust the thrust output of an engine. By manipulating the TCL, users can increase or decrease engine power, thereby controlling the aircraft's acceleration, climb rate, and overall performance during various phases of flight. Its precise operation is essential for safe and effective aircraft handling.
