Devil True....

Very benevolent and generous in time and patience of Dupre though. I have wondered why if it's a real AB operator why the constant misunderstanding of configuring tied into the Alpha Floor/Alpha Max issues, the understanding of climb thrust being constant and the pitch inputs of AP to maintain climb speed seem to have illuded our OP some how. Power Attitude Trim....manual or even in automation you can't try and maintain speed or attitude by continually changing both pitch and power....it would be mutually incompatible to have computers fighting each other to maintain control of the same criteria?

I also wonder about the desire to drag it round to what looks like some kind of made up flight plan MCDU home built route where speed and Alt constraints are being built in to perhaps let the Home Flight Sim follow a profile before a STAR begins??

Despite all this however it has still been and is being very informative to me on the logic behind this FBW topic......
