Takeoff derate setting time limit
According to a particular AFM, takeoff derate settings are time-limited to 5 minutes. Is it possible that MCT or climb thrust is actually a higher thrust setting?
In the case of the 76 derate power setting are in fact lower than MCT, it really only should apply to MAX T/O, but I'm a well trained monkey and I do what I'm told....!
