The invention relates to a drive system for an, in particular electrically driven, aircraft. The drive system is provided with thrust measuring means which measure a currently effective thrust of the thrust generator of the aircraft. The measurement values obtained in this way are supplied to a controller of the drive system, which uses the measured thrust, along with other parameters, to control the drive system such that a selectable parameter, e.g. the thrust or an efficiency of the drive system, can be is optimised.
