Hey all,

Had a quick question regarding green dot, and although I note that this thread has been dormant for 5 years, I felt it was appropriate.

In the 'Characteristic Speeds' section of the FCOM, as quoted above, it states that green dot corresponds to the final takeoff speed. However, my understanding is that at acceleration altitude, the managed speed target changes to either a pre-selected value (for, say, a wraparound sid) or 250kts. Where does green dot come into the takeoff?
