-0001 thru -0190
The equivalent of this service letter has been incorporated on production airplanes -0191 and On.
REASON
To comply with maximum reverse thrust requirements when using wet runway thrust reverser performance
in the Model 750 Airplane Flight Manual. The correct maximum thrust lever angle (TLA) setting is
necessary in order to get the wet runway accelerate-stop distances called out in the airplane flight manual.
NOTE: The wet runway accelerate-stop distance is affected by the maximum thrust reverse setting. Setting the
maximum reverse thrust to 70% N1 is no longer a correct method. The TLA setting in this service letter
gets a more consistent maximum reverse thrust.
DESCRIPTION
This service letter provides instructions to adjust the maximum reverse thrust setting.
COMPLIANCE
MANDATORY. This service letter must be performed during a scheduled maintenance period.
NOTE: The wet runway thrust reverser accelerate-stop distances specified in the applicable Model 750
Airplane Flight Manual are affected by the maximum thrust reverse setting. This service letter must
be complied with before using these accelerate-stop distances.
