March 15, 20179 yr Hi Could someone explain what happens EO ACCEL HT value is changed on the Takeoff Ref Page. Thanks Paul Burley
March 15, 20179 yr Nothing if you don't have an engine failure . It changes the acceleration height to whatever is defined in that field if you experience an engine failure. Adam Hill
March 15, 20179 yr Author If I have an engine failure what happens? At acceleration height does it go to climb thrust?

Basically, on departure, the profile is as follows: Takeoff roll, with takeoff thrust Initial climb at V2 + additive until accel height At accel height, you pitch over and accelerate and retract flaps At reduction height/trigger (reducing flaps to a certain point can be a trigger as well), you reduce thrust to CLB The only change here is that you accel earlier with an engine out. Additionally, the LAST thing you want to do when you've lost an engine is reduce thrust even more, so, there's no thrust reduction in that case. Kyle Rodgers
