Speed is max 185 kts in the turn, bank angle 25 degrees.
- that sounds familiar to me. In my last company (737 Classic) IIRC we flew the turn at F1/185 (<63T, considered a 'safe' speed) but there was no 'policy' on power so my brief was retract to F1 at 'normal' height, take max cont when at Flap 1/185 and clean up when pointing at SPR/above 5000' which seemed to satisfy terrain/engine aspects? At 185kts the published turn was well above terrain. I'm sure if you went round the turn at Flap 5 it would be fine too

If there is no 'guidance' on power then one would hope the examiner would apply 'common-sense'!
