WWW Ive just been rostered for sim-duty tomorrow so Ill have the numbers for you late tomorrow or next day.

Ill also try to post pics of the sim read-outs in both dimensions of the successful profile.

Just to recap:
* flap 5
* APU off/no APU generater avbl
* engine and wing TAI valves closed
* max power TO in CAVOK conditions by day
* 9000ft EOL
* flat terrain
* wc +10
* GW 55T (if I have time Ill do one at 46T as you requested since a lighter weight would be more critical)
* MACTOW 22%, trim 4.2 (typical CG)
* ISA +10
* gear up at positive ROC
* Gear-lever left in UP position because the OFF selection is normaly done after flap retraction
* V2 to V2+5 (146 to 151 kts)
* no climb thrust reduction at normal 3rd seg altitude.
* sudden complete failure of both engines (the engine failures will be simulated by simpley pulling the start levers rather than lengthy engine-failure pre-programing).
* imediate initiatiation of loss of thrust on both engines recall items by PNF, followed by SYS A +B flight control sws to STBY RUD (which youd do in real life)
* PNF should then imediatley drops gear lever to OFF, then DN (in case pulling the handles is necessary), but the aim is to make the runway so gear will be select to OFF only, to protect what little hyd press you have left for primary flt controls. Belly land.
* All through this the PF turns to the left for return, and lands at Vref5 for 55T (168kt) and Id expect possible manual reversion.

This is gonna be bloodey interesting!
