Can the takeoff thrust be actually reduced to below climb thrust setting? I thought it was not allowed?
SOP may not "allow" it ? Is it because it is not mentioned in SOP ?
It may be confusing if we do not use logic. How can one have enough (reduced) thrust to Take-Off and be "not allowed" to keep SAME (reduced) thrust as Climb Thrust....
even if it is less then Normal Climb Thrust...
Of course it is less because all Reduced calculations are done JUST for Take Off and not for Climb...It may be on AirBus and Boeing
but for example on good 'ole L1011-500 SOP even Climb Thrust was "allowed" to be reduced according to GW.
