Thanks for your quick response,

This is interesting as our training says that the perf we use is predicated at remaining at assumed temp thrust with the engine out thus you DON'T apply full power or rather you don't HAVE to.

The understanding is that you are taking a reduction in thrust to an assumed temp that will allow the remaining engine to lift the given weight taking into account all the usual perf stuff like obstacles and field length etc. Under your system as you say there is no question as you have full thrust but we remain at the assumed temp thrust and thus the question remains.... when do I reduce if at all?
