Airbus Climb Derate?

Hey all,

For all those in the know, I've got a question that's been bugging me. In a Boeing, you can select reduced power for the climb phase (CLB1 or CLB2) in pretty much the same way you select reduced power for takeoff (TO1 or TO2). Now I know that the bus can do FLEX takeoff's, but can you also reduce thrust in the climb, or do you always have to use full power? Or does the FMGS do all the work as directed by the CI?



Thanks for all replies
