Flight Level Change Mode
Figure 8--35
If the TCS button is pushed and held, the pilot can maneuver the aircraft
without disengaging the FLC mode. However, pushing the TCS button
does not resynchronize the value of the IAS/Mach reference bug, which
is controlled using the IAS/MACH knob on the instrument remote
controller. To fly the FLC mode in a climb to a preselected altitude, follow
the procedure in Table 8--5.
Step
Procedure
1 Push the FLC button on the flight guidance controller .
2 Set the speed bug on the EADI for the reference IAS, or
Mach number , using the IAS/MACH knob on the
instrument remote controller.
3 Advance the throttle position to achieve climb power.
4 The system climbs toward the preselected altitude,
maintaining the speed reference. The amount of throttle
position change varies the rate of climb of the aircraft.
