More than One way to clean a Wing
Northbeach,
Thanks for the detailed and constructive reply.
Its the first time i've questioned following the F/D's but Boeing SOP's also state to ignore.
I guess its Pilot call whether you wish to have Altitude or Airspeed, personally below 1500 its certainly altitude I would also pitch for as V2 is also our margin for Single Engine.
Are there other situations you would ignore Flight Directors?
