I have tried several landings with gear up and flaps set improperand get no alarms, only gpws alert for gearwhat type of alarm is it, bell ringing, buzzer, is it constant?JohnPSS SUPPORTsupport@phoenix-simulation.co.ukhttp://www.avsim.com/pss/phoenix.jpg

It's possibly a warning about being overspeed for the config, I have had it occcasionally but have never been entirely clear what has caused it.

Hi John,it's a buzzer and it starts as soon as i extend slats.It's not constant but come and go away from time to time and never appear before i start slats/flaps op's.It also starts/stops during turnings.Now i'm trying to identify the exact .wav and report.thanksLuigi ;-)

[Guest LSangiovanni LIML]

if i'm not wrong the file should be BMGWARN.WAV into PSSABPROSOUND.*** folder;what does it mean?Thanks a tonLuigi ;-)

i must be wrong, sorry :-( at 4000 Fts!I'll do further investigation; where should i search for that file?thanksLuigi ;-)

[Guest LSangiovanni LIML]

Hmm.... after couple more flight...it sounds like an overspeed warning and it starts as soon as speed increases over (S) or (F) marks; very odd as i usually fly approaches using MANGAGED SPEED and MANAGED VERTICAL GUIDANCE.Suggestions? Thanks in advanceLuigi ;-)

are you activating APPR PHASE before starting the approachJohnPSS SUPPORTsupport@phoenix-simulation.co.ukhttp://www.avsim.com/pss/phoenix.jpg

[Guest LSangiovanni LIML]

Hi John.>are you activating APPR PHASE before starting the approachyes, twice, ACTIVATE+CONFIRM; after that i start my MANAGED DESCENT by setting a lower altitude in FCU. Nothing more except lowering slats (under 210 Kts) and flaps (under 190 Kts on the LOC).Not clear though if i have also to engage V/S button after APPR PHASE activated... It happens that from time to time IAS exceed (S) or (F) and that alarm promptly starts :-(thanksLuigi ;-)
