Normal Go around trust is limited to 965 ITT for two minutes and 949 ITT for an additional three minutes. CON thrust is limited to 960 ITT continuously. CON is essentially take-off thrust indefinitely. I'm guessing this is not a good thing.

I agree, but one difference for those unfamiliar with 170 is that unlike the 145, 170 has autothrottles, so selecting CON merely allows autothrottles to cross the CRZ threshold but not exceed max continuous threshold.

It's basically the same. The 145's FADEC will not allow you to exceed CON either if selected.

Now with the help of Frontier, Midwest, and our own pilots, lets strive for a great contract flying the 170/190.

Wow when did that happen??? Did you guys get a new contract with mainline wages/benefits/retirement that we didn't hear about (and no you can't count Midwest & Frontier's as yours)??? Pass the pipe if not!

Other than the two or three flame baits, this is the most professional thread that has been on here in months. If we would all worry a lot more about professionalism and improving pilots' working knowledge, perhaps we would not have to worry about pilot pay and quality of life as much.

Thanks for a refreshing break from the bottom feeders.

Right, but at higher altitudes, if you're in CON and you're above the threshold of CRZ settings, your ITT is gonna be around 770-790 or so, and in CRZ, it'll be around 750-760 - nowhere near the limitations.

MAXIMUM CONTINUOUS RATING (CON)
The maximum continuous thrust is to be used on emergency situation
where thrust higher than usual is required.
It is the highest thrust the engines can operate continuously without
reducing the time between overhauls


This is straight from the ERJ-170 AOM Volume II...our POH does not give procedures to use CON in cruise flight.
