VNV PROFILE

The VNV profile can be changed by one of the following means:

• Changing the Flight Path Angle (FPA) for the descent segment

• Changing the target vertical speed for the descent segment

Changes to the VNV profile apply to the current active waypoint only.  The VNV profile is not modifiable 

if there is no active waypoint.  An invalid entry results in the previous value being restored.  The VNV 

profile modification is invalid if it results in any of the following conditions:  

• The maximum allowed FPA is exceeded

• The calculated target vertical speed exceeds the maximum allowed

• The TOD point is now located behind the aircraft’s present position or an s-turn would be required to 

capture the modified vertical profile

• Modifying the vertical speed target for the current waypoint
