I didn't mean to put you to so much bother, Avioniker. This is exactly what I have in my manuals. It says N1 can be used for "takeoff", but what does this mean? (Can takeoff include early climb?). Will it go into HOLD mode from N1 mode or just from TOGA mode.
"When the DFCS is not engaged, the pilot can push the N1 selector switch on the MCP to manually select the N1 mode."
Is the DFCS considered engaged when the FD is ON? (or are they talking purely about A/P engagement).
I have already received a reply on another respected pilots' forum (from a Fleet Technical Captain) telling me it won't, so I still don't know for sure. Hence my confusion.
Rgds.
