prog page step climb or t/d

Featured Replies

Hi Guys,

 

On a couple of flights now I have noticed that on the PROG page of the FMC the right hand side line 4 entry is referring to step climb - none as opposed to top of descent and then the distance. FCOM 2 page 11.42.46 mentions this and the conditions that create it but not how to revert it back to T/D.

 

Has anyone else come across this and got it to show T/D ?

 

The situation I have is that the cruise altitude is FL390, STEP TO is FL410 but not available, OPT FL390 and MAX FL399. I've tried changing and deleting the STEP TO FL410 but nothing alters.

 

Thanks and Regards

Simon

Your post kinda confused me reading it so if what I say below is not what you're asking forgive me.

 

If what you're saying is that its not showing a T/D distance.  Well it won't show until you're closer to the T/D point then it will show the distance.

Yeah I could have worded it better I guess and literally 2 minutes ago the T/D came back. So thanks for taking the time to answer.
