A flight control system of a turboprop airplane comprises electronic controlled engines, which are governed by means of a manual operating device for setting the engine power in order to obtain a certain airspeed, a device for selecting a desired airspeed, and an engine control system for computing and controlling the required engine torque and speed as a function of ambient ant engine conditions, the selected engine speed and the setting of said operating device. For automatically controlling the engine speed during the final approach to an airfield, the system comprises an electronic approach speed control unit of which the adjustment signal influences the engine control device keeping the speed of the airplane during approach at a selected value whereby said manual operating device has a fixed setpoint. This electronic speed control unit may be carried out as an add-on device for retrofitting on a flight control system.
