A330 Windshear

Hi,

The way I remember my actions to a windshear warning or caution is basically: If it's Amber: sit on your hands, asses, and decide on your action, however if it's red (either reactive or predictive) either a reject or go-around (standard or windshear escape) is required.

Basically as far as I'm aware all warnings along the lines of " monitor radar display" / " caution windshear ahead " are displayed in amber, and looking at the supp. techniques shows me that basically your don't HAVE to either reject or go - around, since in some cases it COULD be more prudent to land.

On the other hand if you get " go around windshear ahead (predictive) " or " windshear windshear (reactive) " you have to go around , same applies to t/o up to 100kts, it would be an RTO.

Now, this is basically something I recall from my 320 days, however I struggle to find the actual windshear related messages and their associated colour coding on the ND in the FCOM, I tried 1 and 3.

Anybody any ideas where I could find this information?

Thanks for your help in advance!
