I'll have to admit that I don't agree with this. In real life, I fly an airliner which weighs a bit less than the Boeing 767, but has a very similar thrust to weight ratio. This is one of the scenarios we do in training to show the lack of excess thrust in high altitudes. In the another company simulator, we start at 250KT/0.75M at FL350 more or less, then we set the thrust to max power and see how long it takes to get to 270KT/0.80M, and it generally takes 90-120 seconds. If this is at MAX power, it almost makes sense that a slight power change would cause a 0.04M increase in 10 minutes. This issue isn't as much air resistance but lack of excess thrust. If you have excess thrust, yes it will equalize at a particular speed because of the exponential increase in drag, but how do you know how that is with a PW4060 at FL350 at 300,000lb, for example? |
