Alpha Floor/Min Speed Reversion (MSR)
From a discussion on the AMS 737 crash thread I have been shown a clip from a 737 Tech Manual which refers to the 'Alpha Floor' mode and makes no mention of it not being active on a coupled GS.
I have, since 737 early days, and on the NG, been told that MSR was quite different to AF and the two are not to be confused. Can anyone confirm whether it is correct to use 'Alpha Floor' in a Boeing publication? I understood the phrase to be virtually an AI 'copyright'?
Can anyone also CONFIRM whether MSR is active on a coupled GS or not? My tech manual is for NG but dated 2002.
