Page "Tuning" in MCDU

[Guest vrapp]

Right-click on INIT in MCDU opens page "Tuning" with several parameters that can be changed, while lower ECAM apparently shows the result. Is there any information about this?Vadim Rapp

The only information we can give you is that this is not a supported feature and you use it at your own risk: you can cause absolute havoc with the flight dynamics if you get it wrong.

On the other hand you can fix a couple of outstanding issues if you get it right ;)Only thing is PSS is not going to help you get it right so, unless you are very patient, you'll get it wrong. In any case I'd like to hear your results.Regards,

And if you can find out how to stop the A340's vertical speed going negative when the autopilot seeks a higher airspeed, that would be awesome... Nothing worse than engaging the AP after takeoff and hearing "TERRAIN, TERRAIN!"Bryn.

> Nothing worse than engaging the AP after takeoff and hearing "TERRAIN, TERRAIN!"here's what's worse (the fresh experience): engine failure; shut it down; emergency; successfully descended to the nearest a/p ; already on g/s; finally, allow it to control airspeed as it wants. In no time, sinkrate and crash - when controlling the speed in approach mode, it does not take into account the real engine situation.
