Low level Go around A320

Hi vilas,

We agree on your post above and ESCAT's excellent post.

"In theory, if the VFE was below G/D speed, the aircraft would accelerate only to VFE, but the magenta speed target would still show Green Dot. That being said in case of very quick acceleration, or environmental disturbance (turbulence, wind shift etc.), I would think it would be quite easy to exceed VFE."

In order to prevent an accidental VFE speed exceedence especially when the aircraft acceleration is faster than the flaps / slats retract. VFE limit moves with the flap handle position but the overspeed warning reflects the actual flaps/slats position.
There are two options.
1) Pull speed and control the rate of acceleration.
2) Reduce thrust manually to a sensible setting.

I have used both and prefer the manual thrust method.

The problem with insisting everything must be done using the automatics doesn't help crews when the automatics fail.
