Takeoff power (relating to unsupercharged operation or to operation in each supercharger mode as applicable).

Fuel grade or specification.

Cylinder head and oil temperatures.

Any other parameter for which a limitation has been established as part of the engine type certificate except that a limitation need not be established for a parameter that cannot be exceeded during normal operation due to the design of the installation or to another established limitation.
