Captain Eicas . .. .<<Eff Oh states the B767 barbers pole is "close to .82". So here we go...... .The MMO of a B767 is .86>>. .. .An FAA N- reg maybe... But our UK 767s (at least the Nigel ones) have a damn great red line at .82! Rumours BA (or whoever) "would not pay" for certifying beyond this.... .. .Our autothrottles are definitely programmed for .86, since they thing nothing of going straight past .82 and into the managers' interview if we are reading the paper a little too closely.... .. .NoD
