Hey. 


I just bought the Dash8-Q400 and its a wonderful aircraft. But how does the autopilot control the speed with the throttle. IAS only controls the speed with the trim. But this is not really good for approaches. Is there any way to engage the auto throttle or does the Dash8 don't have an auto throttle.

The Dash doesn't have one. IAS is like flight level change.

So there is really no way to have the autopilot control the throttles?

This is what makes flying fun and real. Very common on regional airliners. IAS is the way to go, and throttle management on the way down.

Alright. Thank you for your fast reply. 

 

I will still enjoy flying this aircraft :)
