Hi guys

I hadn't read that paragraph or I had mistook it with the one TP mentions.

I thought we should fly at VMAX-10 kt regardless of displayed VFE. But what does that may means? We can choose? Why? Now thinking, if we fly within the displayed barber pole... Will the normal law high speed protection intervene? The Overspeed warning will occur at actual limit, QRH says, so I don't think so, but I don't know for sure.

The problem in this failure is that we want to fly as fast as possible (without exceeding flaps/slats limits) because we haven't got the lift benefits of correctly deployed flaps/slats and our manoeuvring speed is higher than displayed. Though VLS is correct and as long as we don't go below it there should be no problem it is important to know what the max speed is. Particularly if we are heavy.

The table is straightforward for me too Simple things may become more difficult in final approach depending on circumstances, but that is what we get paid for.
