In reply to a previous post, full flap on the B757 is Flap 30. F20 is used for single-engined landing and for 2-E go-around.

It's a while ago, but I seem to remember a limit on how much flap is permitted (or recommended) with speedbrake - was (is?) it less than F20?
I was in a 787 - which also has a "soft" restriction of flap 5 for speedbrake .....so would be interested if any 757 guys could confirm that flap 20 and speed brake is not a combination Boeing routinely support?
