Best Answer

Thrust is analogous (same as) to throttle or speed. An increase in thrust would basically be speeding up. A decrease would be the opposite. It is controlled in most commericial aircraft by a lever in the middle of the flight deck. IT is measured in percent-N1.

this is all false information!
