Engines

Post by Capt G » Fri Apr 14, 2023 12:58 pm

I have started having trouble with the engines spooling up and down aggressively, when flying the approach making it very difficult to complete the landing. Have you any ideas what causing this?
Thank you

So its on Auto Throttle. So it will all depend on what speed its set on the CDU, the AT is reacting to that speed.

What I recommend you set the speed yourself, typicall 125-135kts on the 318 should do OK.

Are you still experiencing this with your aircraft?
