Hmmm...shouldn't that have been done by the end of September?
Not on line!! 30 December 2005



And that gives you the limitation for the gearbox??
No, the PAC is a means for the pilot to determine, prior to take off, that each engine is capable of developing specification power!!
Running parrallel on this thread, Torque limitations are based on the transmission are they not? An engine can easily overtorque a transmission.

I guess when I said, "At no time did I go to the BATs office and get the latest PPI figures" I must have been thinking about that cat licking its a$$. OK, wrong again, sorry!

Now was that anti-icing and cabin heating off or not? What if I have anti-icing off and cabin heating on? AFCS Height hold disengaged or not?

Anyway, I still stand by "When working out the single engine performance figures, I always used to refer to the charts in the back of the ODM. The figures were based on Temp/Press/Wt." But must add, the chart used was decided by the PPI results found in the 700. But isn't that just for finding MinSELF?

Do/Did you feel safe in an aircraft giving you 94% PPI?

'Above average' eh?
Everytime! All types!
You never did make PSI did you? Only now by default!
