Who said urgency there is to select it ... Neither the FCOM neither FTCM.
Your statement, "It is strongly recommended that you never use the bird in case of unreliable instruments" is not backed by anything.

Apparently EIS includes PFDs NDs and ECAM (not MCDU)
But thanks to both of you for the replies.




Clandestino, what is the purpose of your question as Dani and FCOM wrote the very same thing, coma included :
"If remaining altitude indication is unreliable:
Do not use FPV and/or V/S, which are affected."

Not supposed to and not aware of any such reconfiguration.
But if it did happen, it would be a bug ...


More interesting than a guy writing a book, why the Judge refuses to include the full FDR data to the procedure ... ?
The families should mobilize now or accept to be served a part only of the story, the part with the 'deficient' crew ...
My thoughts to the families of those pilots. I know what will be told if I crash my AB.
