Boeing 737 NG and classic questions

Hi All,



Some opinions on the below topics would be greatly appreciated;

1. What target speed would you use for a engine Re light envelope on the classic and NG above FL240 since there is no envelope for this, would you use the speed targets suggested in the loss Of thrust on both Engines IE: At or above FL270 set airspeed to 275 knots. Below FL270, set airspeed to 300 knots?



2. In the engines section of the FCOM on the classic and NG, Boeing recommend the below techniques, however I cannot find reference to this in the QRH maneuverer section and or FCTM???,



It is more relevant for the NG why would Boeing think of this, especially in such a pressured time critical situation?

B737 Classic

With the PMCs ON or OFF, advancing the thrust levers full forward provides some overboost and should be considered only during emergency situations when all other available actions have been taken and terrain contact is imminent.

B737NG

If the EECs are in the alternate mode, advancing the thrust levers full forward provides some overboost and should be considered only during emergency situations when all other available actions have been taken and terrain contact is imminent.
