Uplinker, I agree with everything you've said. My only point is that it's not necessary to say it out loud, to understand what's about to happen. We can use our inside voices.As I said to the...

Set 5000, and read "5000 blue" off the PFD. Some guys will point to the altitude until the other pilot confirms the clearance.

Quite the contrary, actually. I do the callouts prescribed by my SOP. We're not required to make any RA callouts. The company has determined that the auto callout suffices.

If people in your company are in the habit of trusting that their FMA input is sufficient, then yes, I understand why the verbal call may make sense in that case.

On my first jet, you HAD to read...

My point isn't about calling without checking. I'm simply questioning the efficacy of the callout.

I'm interested in this, because my company has flip flopped on calling out thr FMA. I do it...

Completely agree. In my mind, it actually goes against Airbus philosophy to make the calls. Think about the cockpit design. If everything works as it should, there are no indications- all lights,...

This can happen in any airplane. Doesn't seem to be worth the extra blabbering that Airbus recommends. I'd like to believe that I'd notice and start diagnosing the problem before I've had time to...

You mention rattling off FMA's out of habbit. Eventually, that gets drowned into the background noise, and you may not even be paying attention to what the other guy is saying.

To be clear, I...

Appreciate your input Vilas. I'm familiar with the Jetstar incident. However, did their problem stem from not verbalising the FMA, or not reading it at all? Had they read it, they'd notice MCT | GS |...

Everything that you guys have said is theoretically right, except that in the real world, it doesn't really matter. Any airplane with an AP has some sort of FMA. How us is that Boeing pilots seem to...

Most companies on this side of the pond do not call out the FMA. I don't gain anything from calling out the FMA that simply reading it doesn't give me.

What does your company manual say about the callouts? I'd do it the way they want it done.

I'm fairly new to the type, but wish Airbus would drop the FMA callouts. I don't see how it accomplishes...
