"The curse of Managed Speed has struck again.Is the A340-600 a jinxed design?It has had a lot of incidents since its launch."
A bit cryptic for the non-cognoscenti to follow,
tubby linton?
If the A/THR response is anticipated to be poor near the threshold, do your SOPs (on the A330) ban you from using manual thrust? And does your GE/RR engine spool-up similarly to the Trents on the A340-600?
And are you entering the
mean wind on the PERF page, or inflating any reported headwind?
Maybe a bit technical for this thread, but would be interested to have your (less-cryptic) contribution regarding Airbus FBW Managed Speeds/ GS-Mini/AutoThrust-ManualThrust here:
