- Power control is the application of collective pitch with corresponding throttle control, where applicable. In straight-and-level flight, changes of collective pitch are made to correct for altitude deviations if the error is more than 100 feet, or the airspeed is off by more than 10 knots. If the error is less than that amount, use a slight cyclic climb or descent.
- The crew reverted to manual throttle control and descended to FL 290, slowly closing the throttle. The right engine vibration indicator suddenly shot up to 5.2 and a dull tremor shook the aircraft. Then the readings returned to the normal range and the vibration disappeared. The Captain, however, decided to declare an emergency and land in Athens where he felt he could get technical support that would not be available at Kos.
