Title: EPR
Post by twright on Aug 27th, 2009 at 12:40pm
Hi!

Well I splashed out and got the 727-100, and i'm glad I did!  What can I say - it's awesome!  The model, the sounds, the cockpit - it's fabulous!

One question about setting EPR.  I find this quite difficult to set, because it changes on it's own!  On takeoff (and I find this mostly at higher-altitude airports), I set takeoff EPR and as the aircraft speeds up the EPR values decrease on their own.  Also during climb, the EPR decreases.  Is this right?  Say for example on takeoff I set EPR at 2.0, by the time the aircraft's lifted off this can be down to 1.8 without moving the throttles.  Can someone give me some help as to when to set EPR?!

Thanks,
Tom
