Talking about RA, in Airbus Safety First # 13 (January 2012) Airbus, published an article about the TCAP ( TCAS Alert Prevention) and mentioned that this feature will be available on all Airbus Fly-By-Wire.

But looking at the FCOM, I don’t find anything about TCAP?! Did they drop the project? Or it’s just there but not mentioned in the FCOM…
Apology for the little thread drift.

Hi
Available as an option on the A320, A330 depending on FMG(E)S standard.
Standard on A350.
Cheers

PS: the FCOM description just generally describes the feature along the lines of: In the case of a traffic advisory, the V/S is automatically adjusted to reach the target altitude, in order to avoid spurious resolution advisories.

(No mention of TCAP)

OPEN DES, thank you! I checked my FCOM and interestingly enough, only the 2 newest A321 Neo have that feature!
Cheers.
