Good stuff, MB2002 except for
* Now I see that the table is needed for knowing what is the VFE next, so the procedure can be carried out. The ECAM does not display it, unfortunately.
VFE next is always displayed on the PFD IAS scale! The table is there so you can plan the max speed on a go-around based on the landing config, and the retraction speed if diverting after the G/A. So you enter the table with your planned landing config.
The Slat column refers to lever position and the equivalent slat position.
S >3 is there to allow for a Slats lock on a go-around in CONF FULL - remember that these procedures are written for every possible flight phase/ config, not just the one you find yourself in!
