Question ACCELERATE TO STOP and ZERO THRUST in the AFM?

Thanks guys for the replies. Frank I saw the same in the 1971 AFM, so two year difference between our models isn't too bad. The main reason I'd like to know this info is my MEI asked me if I knew the "Zero thrust" settings? And for the Accelerate-to-stop info is basically in a "NOTE" in my AFM that states: "Accelerate from standing to 85 MPH and decelerate to a stop with heavy braking within 2300 feet at sea level". Although I'm sure that the book standard is NOT achievable with our old airplanes so with a safety margin of plus 50% or about 4500 feet is achievable--YES or NO?
Thanks again! BILLS
