Thank you Denti. This leads me to one (hopefully) last question.
If you are doing a derated/flex takeoff AND climb, assuming A/T is on, what drives the airplane to increase N1/EPR (and therefore thrust) as the air thins out, and finally reach full-rated climb thrust? Is this logic governed by a minimum RoC, a minimum thrust, or something else entirely?
Huh, I just realised I probably used a very long and convoluted sentence for "what is the washout logic" or something. Bah ;-)

Cheers
