The standard placard for all the Mk 7s I flew was 105% at 120 Kts up to 4375Kg if memory serves.

If you set 107% for take off it would inevitably droop to below 105% by the time you got to 120 kts - I had many arguments with some Standards officers who didn’t understand that you had to therefore reset 105% to correctly tune the bonk.

The Tq matching proved there was no ergonomics department at Westlands, you were redatuming the No 2 ECU but turning it clockwise made the No 2 Tq go down not up. Genius!
