^The capatin setting something

Regarding this picture, he's got his hand right over the TMSP (Thrust Mode Select Panel). Depending on the stage of flight, it might have been a assumed temperature setting (derated thrust), or he selected a new thrust mode (IE Continuous, or CON, Thrust). From the looks of EPR and N2, this looks like it's still preflight.


Thanks for sharing the photos!

Ahh yes, thats what he would be setting, sorry didn't see it properly as my camera isn't very good at taking photos anymore! I don't remember seeing a thrust derate temp on the EICAS, but I will have to check the full size photos I took to see if it was set.

And yeah they were in pre-flight up untill I got to sit down. We were set up from a cold and dark cockpit set up and they had to go everything like engine start when sitting on the runway! (well, it is a simulator, after all!)

Thanks,
