Can effective thrust in the more dense layers of the atmosphere be considered constant (as a...

It states the following: The thrust load ratio is: $Psi = {T \over Mg}$ $T$ being the effective thrust, equal to the actual (constant) thrust minus the drag. … So the aerodynamic drag increases but the thrust remains the same hence the effective thrust changes. …
