In the above descent - what would happen if you Selected 280kts.
Open Descent?

. .and . ../ . but . .

Could you not plug in 280 for the descent speed in the Prog page . ? or would that be the , anyway, the page where you could put in 280 (thereby without having to go to Selected spd yet) (and then go Selected lower down, getting ready for the approach)

Why?

Well by doing it this way, you would have a managed profile to keep you on the . . . descent profile but with a MAN input into the FMGS?

Or have I missed the boat again?
