Engines a little overpowered?

I have noticed the 757 seems slightly overpowered. A full load of passengers and cargo and the aircraft is still climbing at 3500-4000fpm through almost the entire climb. I know the 757 has a ton of power, but from the research I have done it is not typical to see those climb rates throughout the entire climb. Maybe this can be looked at in the future. Thanks!

Search the 757 general forum for my PW and RR revised flight dynamics

Hi Trevor I wonder if it still works for 1.5.0.1
I too noticed a very far difference of cruing EPR and Fuel flow figure from the realword FPPM data for PW2037, right now I run fuel_flow_scalar=0.9 to match the over all trip fuel consumption, but that still not line up well when curing at different altitude.
While I had done such aero tweaks for FeelthereEjet,737CL,and PSS757 it's still a very painfully long job to do. Huh

My flight dynamics are only for the PW2040.
As far as EPR readouts are concerned, that is hard-coded and cannot be corrected much by tweaking FD. However, the fuel flow is correct.

Why do you think it's slightly overpowered? I THINK it's slightly underpowered. My dog THINKS it's perfect  Cool
May we see the research materials pls?

Shih-tzu, and he insists the thrust is spot on, unless PROVEN opposite.

realword FPPM data

What particular parameters and when exactly they do not match the 757 model?
Which means a lot of the 757 screenshots compared to the real performance tables, with each out of limit parameter marked red.
Moreover aircraft and conditions must be right, and that must be obvious from the screenshots and comments.
