Suppose that the aircraft is at an initial altitude of 10,000 FT, with a selected
vertical speed of 1600 FPM climbing and a selected altitude of 11,100 FT. The
scheduled reduction in vertical speed will be as follows:
Altitude (FT)
Vertical Speed (FPM)
10,000
1600
10,100
1400
10,200
1100
10,300
1000
10,400
900
10,500
800
10,600
700
10,700
600
10,800
500
10,900
400
11,000
300
Suppose that the aircraft is at an initial altitude of 11,100 FT, with a selected
vertical speed of 1600 FPM descending and a selected altitude of 10,000 FT.
The scheduled reduction in vertical speed will be as follows:
Altitude (FT)
Vertical Speed (FPM)
11,100
1600
11,000
1400
10,900
1100
10,800
1000
10,700
900
10,600
800
10,500
700
10,400
600
10,300
500
10,200
400
10,100
300
However, there will be no scheduled reduction if the selected vertical speed is
300 FPM or less.
If the newly selected altitude requires a vertical speed polarity opposite to that
previously selected, then the vertical speed selection will automatically change
polarity and magnitude, the latter always being 500 FPM.
Suppose that the aircraft is at an altitude of 5,000 FT, with a selected vertical
speed of 1000 FPM climbing and a selected altitude of 10,000 FT. If the selected
altitude is subsequently changed to 4,900 FT, then the vertical speed selection
will automatically change to 500 FPM descending (-5 on display).
Suppose that the aircraft is at an altitude of 10,000 FT, with a selected vertical
speed of 1000 FPM descending and a selected altitude of 5,000 FT. If the
selected altitude is subsequently changed to 10,100 FT, then the vertical speed
selection will automatically change to 500 FPM climbing (+5 on display).
