Excuse my ignorance, but what is the relation between requiring anti-ice and needing to apply speed-brake? [Air temp is low, so air is more dense therefore more lift which needs to be ditched by deploying air-brake? ]
Anti ice on the 767 requires bleed air, this means a higher idle setting which means more residual thrust....
