Derated Thrust for Takeoff

Recommended Posts

Just wondering what you all are doing as far as the derated thrust settings for takeoff. Are you setting it and if so which option are you using? Thanks, Jim

I think most people use topcat for calculating it ...

The 737 is a very over powered plane.If you are making short flights with little fuel and passengers then a derate makes sense. Don't be afraid to play with it a bit !! Fred.

Get topcat - will give you flap and derate/including double derate settings to use based on your load and runway length
