EEC

Hi,

Regarding the EEC normal mode, the 737 FCOM says:

"The full rated takeoff thrust for the installed engine is available at a thrust lever position less than the forward stop. Fixed or assumed temperature derated takeoff thrust ratings are set at a thrust positions less than full rated takeoff. The maximum rated thrust is available at the forward stop."

My question here is.. Does the above means that during takeoff, I shoudn't move the thrust levers to the forward stop position so I can get the EEC calculated full rated takeoff? or it is mean, during takeoff, when moving the thrust lever to forward stop, the ECC will give me the full rated takeoff thrust?

My second question is, does the EEC calculates the N1 thrust ratings in the Alternate mode (soft and hard) as in the Normal mode?


Thanks,
wof
