Was running some numbers around and was wondering why not use the first two gears on a 727 like a glide then third will be overdrive.

The 727
1st 2.45
2nd 1.45
so 2.45/1.45=1.69
a glide is 1.76 first to second ratio

I understand the extra drag on internal components and needed to get the convertor set up right.
