102% NR

We use 102% for all take-off and landing including a "vertical cat.B take-off"created from nowhere by our company because the aircraft is to heavy.When you are above 6400 kg all time in Summer, of course it is difficult to comply with a cat.A profile and you become creative......
And on 10 aircrafts, I believe only 2 have a rotor brake who is not US, it has been going on for months now.

On a different subject, we won't be using the FIPS again this Winter ,still have problem with the slip ring.But bying 139 for cat.A performance and FIPS and ending with no FIPS and doing "vertical cat.B" in Summer,what a waste.
