Not bad, but I guess you wiil not gain much as you climb while stressing engines.
And by the way, I would like to Know " how could be MCT less than CL above FL 330?"
JT8D-219, 217 Engines.
It doesn´t make sense at all, this discrepancy is only sensible on analogic TRI ( Electromecanic engine panel). Tipical EPR LIM for MCT is 2.02 and for CL 2.05 ?
MCT is always higher than CL but as you climb diference is reduced until you reach aprox FL 330 (make sense), above this FL MCT is lower than CL and the spread is greater till you reach max. certifies ceiling FL 370.
