Hi all,

A question from a curious non-pilot; apologies in advance if i may be on the wrong formum! With regard to uncommanded thrust roll back on one engine in the cruise, presumably there is an immediate effect on the yaw/bank angle off the aircraft? Is this compensated for by anything automatically, for example rudder trim or is that not enough? Presumably the pilots would have to do something else to stabilise the situation?

Just curious about the aerodynamic effects during an event of this nature. Thanks in advance. As I said, if i'm in the wrong place, apologies and please redirect me if so.

Thanks, Ian
