Thank You all for your inputs. Further to that another question. The APPR PROC calls for ATHR OFF as due to loss of slats and some flight control surfaces, the ATHR may not satisfactorily maintain the speed. Is it acceptable to disconnect the ATHR upon completing the landing configuration ? Every time I deal with that failure (in the sim
) I notice that the ATHR does a pretty good job and the pitch up effect can still be counteracted easily so I tend to keep it till landing conf established to reduce the workload. Got different opinions on that through the years. Thanks !
