Back in the 1980s we challenged our company's performance assumption. An honest VP agreed to provide the pilot's union with performance data for OEI on Runway 25 at KLAS. We picked the temperature that would just permit a MGTOW for the 727-200 with the 14,500 thrust engines. It took 31 miles to reach 1,500.
