So in summary the from all the posts above:
  • There are slight differences between models
  • SPD INTV activates VNAV SPD before the criteria of the VNAV Approach Logic are met
  • VNAV PTH remains enganged when the VNAV Approach logic criteria have been met
  • The open SPD window enables/allows manual adjustement and control of the speed
  • Closing the SPD window will allow VNAV to control the speed, based on actual flap configuration and preselected VREF additive to selected landing flap when set
  • Flight directors will guide you down the calculated VNAV PTH until recycled from view
  • Flight directors can guide you down to ruway or MD coded waypoint
  • Flight directors when crossing this last point can/will command the missed approach pitch/turns (slight difference between models) or remove from view until TOGA selection
