guys please help me out here

question: with A320, when i bring the flaps backt to 0 from 1, is the speed supposed to increase back to green dot speed from s speed in manage mode?

i brought them back to zero from 1 in actual flight, but the speed didnt increase back to green dot speed as i expected, it just stayed at s speed.
so i opened up the speed window and manually set the green dot speed.

please anybody enlighten me !!!!

Hi xenusung,

The autothrust can't anticipate what you are about to do. You would need to command an acceleration first, then select a lesser Flap setting. Once clean, managed speed would then fly G.D. (if App phase activated)
