TO/GA with VS positive

Featured Replies

Hello,I noticed that pressing TO/GA has no effect if the vertical speed is positive, which can happen on final with turbulence or during the level off at MDA on a non precision approach.Is it normal ?Can anyone confirm this.Thanks a lot.Claude

Hello,When hitting the GA switch:1 If at least one cmd is on with Autothrottle armed ,thrust is applied to maintain a climb at 2000 feet per minute.2 With A/P off and A/T armed the autothrottle mode annoucement on the EADI indicates A/T _ GA but nothing happen, the throttle doesn't move.so what is the interest to push GA switch in this caseIs it a normal behaviour.Thanksbest regardsClaude Troncy
