^ Ummm "3 meters"???? Where did that come from I could have sworn that last night I had to clean my PFD cos some grubby fingered FO had decided to point something out in close up. Must have had very long arms eh? Oh, and by the way, ive yet to see an easier way of monitoring airspeed than a trend arrow. Bit tricky to put those on an analogue dial.

Ridiculously small VSI? Is that the VSI that takes up the whole right hand side of the PFD, rather than another bloody dial somewhere on the cluttered fascia.

To prevent these errors I propose 3 rules for this thread in the spirit of the first post

1) Only Airbus rated/experienced posters

2) No discussion of xwind landings unless youve operated out of BHX

3) Only Airbus fans to post

That should solve my blood pressure problem

PS I love airbus (except in strong winds at BHX)
