Question regarding Missed Approach

Featured Replies

Gents,

 

Today I flew a number of published missed approach procedures.  Below you can see my procedure.  At 400ft AGL I typically select a roll mode, e.g., HDG SEL or LNAV.  I have noticed that my HDG SEL kicks off once I select LVL CHG and bug flaps up maneuvering speed at acceleration hieght.  I have also tried delaying my selection of LVL CHG until after flap retraction with the same results.

 

I would love to hear back from you folks if you have any idea why my HDG SEL might be kicking off.  Clearly there is something awry with my technique.

 

My Procedure

TOGA, Flaps (Selected, 15, Set)

Landing Gear (UP at Positive Rate)

Roll Mode (400ft Selected, HDG SEL or LNAV)

LVL CHG (At Acceleration Height Select Maneuvering Sped)

Flaps (As Needed)

After Takeoff Checks

 

Feedback is greatly appreciated.

Gents,

 

Thanks for your replies.  Sorry for the late response- we have been without power after storms on Friday evening.

 

@Spin: No, the HDG SEL simply kicks off after selecting LVL CHG.  Thou according to rsvit this is a known bug.

 

Thanks again.
