T-6 Ops Limits Practice Test

In a T-6 aircraft, the maximum allowable thrust for a go-around is established at 100% power. This setting provides the optimal performance required to expedite the climb and ensure a safe altitude gain during a go-around maneuver, especially in critical phases of flight.

Using 100% power allows the aircraft to maintain a sufficient climb rate and airspeed, which is necessary for overcoming any obstacles or for repositioning in the traffic pattern. This power setting ensures that the engine can deliver the required thrust without risking engine performance issues or exceeding operational limits.

Options above this level, such as 105% power, are not permissible as they would exceed the engine's operational limits and could result in excessive wear or damage to the engine. Therefore, 100% power is both the maximum allowable thrust for a go-around and a crucial safety parameter in maintaining control and performance during this critical phase of flight.
