A330 Vfe CONF 2
Hello everybody.
Checking Speed limitation for CONF2 on A330 FCOM.
Speed limit for CONF 2 is 196 KIAS BUT Vfe on Speed tape is 205 KIAS.
This "discrepancy" confuses me a bit.
Setting lever position to 2 on APP at little less than 205 KIAS will deploy S to 20º and F to 8º. ( barber pole on speed tape), no overspeed.
When speed drops below 196 KIAS, without lever movement, F extends to 14º. Please correct me if I´m wrong.
As far as I know according SOPs max speed for requesting F2 is 196 kIAS then, why two amber bars at Vfe are not displayed at speed tape at 196?
When rushing on aproach it is easy to request F2 too early.
