hello guys,

thanks for the constructive replies much appriciated.

i misread a diagram within the AOM,

so the pilot(whether LNAV/VNAV as been selected)is flying manually (following the FD)until A/P is engage, basically using the F/D to aid the pilot in positioning the a/c to keep on the VNAV profile, correct?

it also states the FCC provide "source information" for the autopilot and the flight director, what is the "source information"?


thanks guys,
