The torque may exceed 103% Q on one engine to a maximum of 123% provided that the power of the other is reduced so that total torque for both engines is not over 206% Q for 30 minutes or 172% continuously, and that the single-engine Ng, T5, and Q limits are not exceeded. The governing parameter is the limit that occurs first. Any time Ng exceeds 106%, the event and its duration must be recorded. Maximum oil consumption rated during operation is 12 ounces per hour.
