When is the exact moment you are supposed to disconnect the A/T

Featured Replies

Hi Everyone:
 

Can someone please tell me the exact moment during a descent you are supposed to disconnect the Autothrottle?  I am accustomed to disconnecting 50ft AGL, but I am not sure this is the "official" time to do so. Anyone?

 

Thanks,

 

Chris Catalano 

FCTM: Autothrottle use is recommended during takeoff and climb in either automatic or manual flight. During all other phases of flight, autothrottle use is recommended only when the autopilot is engaged in CMD.
