new possible user - question about derates

[Mephic 129]

Hi. I got 777 and 737 from PMDG and I am amazed. Both are awesome aircrafts. I do use TOPCAT to calculate derates. I know there is also program called TOPER to get data for 777-300. 

But how to get them for 747? Is there any software that will do the trick? Otherwise - how do you know how much to derate the engines on takeoff?

Topcat has data for the 747

TOPCAT does the 747, too. It was the first aircraft that TOPCAT did, actually. Have a closer look at the program the next time you have it open.

Fun fact: Topcat DEMO does the 747 so you don't even have to buy it to try it out
