Hi,
I'm a CSA/ramp agent for Chicago Express and a student pilot. We fly SAAB 340B aircraft, and often they are dispatched with DETRO on the release. Can someone try to explain what this is? I asked a Captain today and he said it's a limitation that doesn't allow the engines to produce full power. He mentioned temperature has some effect and how maintenance take an engine off DETRO when it goes through maintenance. I'd like some more detail or places to start looking. I already tried searching the forums.
Thanks!
joe
