Ta for that.
However, since it's all computer generated, and the airbus knows what stage of flight you're at (eg SRS displayed, or perf activated), doesn't it compensate for that already?
My question is quite simple, to me anyway.
If you're in the green arc, even below F speed, and above VLS, and airbus say you can choose any speed down to VLS, why do the trainers give you a hard time when you do it?
