GE thrust settings for approach

For the -5F Engines (62,100 lbs) the setting is (as always) dependent on weight. We land between 200 & 300 Tonnes. Starting with a reference of 60% add 1% for every 10 tonnes. IE 240 would be 64% 300 is 70%. This is for flap 30. Reduce it by 6% for flap 25.

I'm told that the -1F engines (57,900lbs) need an additional 6% to the above figures.
