Likewise ... I can recall an F27, wet power, on two .. just making something like 200 ft/min for quite some time after a takeoff in warmish conditions ... and that was NOT overweight .. but we did love the dogwhistle.

If goes without saying, I should have thought, that the AFM predictions go out the window if the basis on which they are made are false ... like being umpteen tons (tonnes for the younger folk .. and I still think in slugs and such, as well) overweight .. not nice.
