ENG format thrust percentage not populating

[Hulkbust44]

Just as the title says. Every other field is populated and works, but thrust is blank. With the rest of the details on the page I find it had to believe this was missed intentionally.

 

See NATOPs I-2-7

2.1.1.7.6 in A1-F18AC-NFM-000

THRUST field shows Thrust in %

This is in the EMD in the F/A-18C/D

Thrust is not mentioned for the F/A-18A/B EMI display.

Yep in the A the Thrust % field was displayed on the DDI EMD page but never saw any value displayed it was always blank.

 

Looking at an FA18A NATOPS Pg1-4 Change 3 dated 15 Jun 1984 under the EMD DDI display description it says: "Thrust is only displayed during ground run engine runup check".

 

C is the same see text under the diagram NATOPS Fig 2-3 Engine Monitor Display EMD Page 1-2-6
