is located at a pre the runway threshold; otherwise the E/D is located a
pre-defined distance from the altitude-constrained waypoint.
The FMS computes a pre-defined target speed at the E/D based on the predicted landing weight, and will
command a deceleration to this speed before reaching the E/D.
NOTE: The pre-defined E/D speed and location can be modified at anytime from [1L] of the DES page.
The E/D speed is limited to the minimum envelope speed.
A DEV jump may then occur caused by the difference between the forecast and a
barometric setting.

2. If the Forecast altimeter setting value is changed during the descent, the pre
altitudes at the descent waypoints may also change.
3. Any subsequent change to the altimeter BARO setting will force a re-computa
