A321 Auto Throttle
Probably the wrong subject header, but I have a question on the A321 ?
Does the FMS/Autothrottle "Hunt" the heading and alt set - irrespective of the speed?
For example, you set a fairly complex departure with a climb, a level, a turn, another climb/turn and then a level and so forth, will the FMS cope with this , is it normal procedure and no great shakes ?
Just a query on a European operator I was on as pax last week, either the FMS or the FO was working bloody hard at 7-8 throttle changes up and down before cleaning up at TOC.
FYI outta LHR to DUB.
cheers
