Requesting a hold from ATC for descents
Sam Spade writes:
In the 727 we didn't have any FMC to keep happy. We actually had to figure it all out by ourselves. What little experimentation I've done seems to indicate that the FMC is very often correct when it says a particular descent cannot be achieved. Of course, it assumes certain constraints that you can ignore if you fly by hand (unless, I suppose, you're stuck with an Airbus). -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail.
