Tutorial 1-ALT INTV

[simmyjiff 0]

Just a small point really, the ALT INTV needs to be activated in climbing but is it the same for reducing climb? on page 0.00.69 of the tutorial, the MCP is lowered to 2000 feet, but there isn't a mention of the ALT INTV button?

Thanks

If you lower the MCP altitude before reaching the TOD, then you won't have to press the ALT INTV; but if you already reached the TOD, then you will have to altitude intervene to begin descending.

Thanks Rem, It's obvious I suppose when you analyse it?
