Flight Idle of jet engine?

Featured Replies

Greetings All,Can anyone out there tell me what the Flight Idle thrust setting would be, as a percentage, as N1 or N2, on a B737?I am trying to program a Flight Level Change function using SIOC on a NON Project Magenta plane. ie; just using the standard FS autopilot. I need to know so I can set the proper thrust if a FLC descent is commanded.Regards Simonaka The Porcupinewww.desktopflying.co.uk, in severe need of an updateVery slowely putting together a generic(ish) twin desktop unit.

Flight idle is usually around 50-55%. Ground idle around 30-35%. Those figures are for the JT8D series.It should be nearly the same for the CFM series.
