ATS Switchong back on on finals
-
Hello,
I am having an issue where on finals, after I have the ATS light extinguished, after a few throttle movements it reengages and sends me skywards again.
An help would be great

The ATS will reengage if:
- The aircraft enters the amber speed bar (VMA) and the VMA protection triggers.
- TOGA levers are triggered
- The ATS is manually re-engaged (either via the ATS push button, or control assignment)
Hope that helps.

Isnt the VMA too high? I always load flightplan and weights with simbrief.
F100 below 30to is significantly higher than the VApp speed -
I've just done a quick test with the F100 at 30,000 kg, and VMA looks correct. In the following screenshot, VMA is approximately 128, and the VREF for flaps 0 is 134.
VMA does vary with flap position, as well as the weights entered in the FMS.

@Mark thanks for reply, I know it varies with weight and flap setting.
But look at my example picture, the VMA is higher than the Vref speed, therefor the ATS kicks in way too early
