Gnad....I should have been more specific.......10-12 yrs ago we used the procedure.....Flaps 1 +f....used at geen dot on long finals so as not to use Flaps 2 ,because of pitch attitude and drag.......the procedure(for us) is not prohibited but not reccommended due to flap track wear.....
Impending overspeeds.as you suggested, requires you to reduce flap settings at any config that goes into the "red"(auto thrust,auto pilot off,speed brakes,etc etc)......that is an action,not a procedure.
We used this as procedure,and to this day works very well.I would totaly agree with wheresthecoffee,Airbus wants these A/C flown on profile,within the "laws" of the A/C for which it is designed......only problem with that is ,as humans we tend to cock-up profiles and flying these things as designed{guilty as charged) .....there are many safe and efficent ways of flying "outside of the box" ....PB
