Many thanks for your answers. Well, the scenario is as follows:

On the E145 you have two options to set thrust:
- Reduced thrust (ALT T/O-1)
- Maximum thrust (T/O-1)

If a takeoff in with reduced thrust is performed and an engine flames out, max thrust is automatically commanded by the FADEC. Alternatively it can be selected by advancing the thrust lever to the detent.

Interestingly, the simulator does not trigger max thrust in case of an N2 seizure. It only does it with e.g. a programmed flameout. What I wonder is, is this a bug in the software of would the real aircraft behave the same way?
