Overspeed Consequences
Author: Shaun Patterson      105 Posts  Status: Confirmed Pilot    Date    07-11-12 19:53

Is there a certain amount of time you must be overspeed for before you're given the consequence for it? Asking because I'm flying right now with real world weather. Flying an A321 at 37,000ft
with a speed of 0.79 Mach; a tailwind suddenly turns into a headwind and I go overspeed past 0.82 Mach for a few seconds before the autothrottle slows me back down. Will I get the consequence
for this?

Perhaps raising the max speed would help, but not necessarily using the higher speed to my advantage; after all I follow checklists and
references :P

It's because of that they are main data flight, the A321 if i'm not wrong should normally fly in M.78 in FL360 or higher, many pilot fly under this
normal recommended data. That happens me a lot of time, and normally -600 penalty are given me even if i'm in M.82 what is the max rec.
Cursing speed. The best you and all other pilot can do is fly the recommended speed or under it, a few minutes of delay isn't so bad, just
make the flight saver and secure in fspassenger and FSX ;)

Hope it help

Yes, you're right. Typical a320 series cruise speed is .78 M. Even though overspeeds above FL300 are usual, almost in every flight. It happens only
for a few seconds and passengers never notice that. The aircraft handles that quite well and till now there are no reports of fadigue caused by short
oversoeed. So, I highly recomend the authors of this great software to reduce or vanish penalties for short episodes of overspeed. It would be nicer
and much more similar to the real world flights.
Hope you read this.
Best regards.

Nobody is working on Fspax anymore so I doubt it will be changed.

If you want to fly the wings off your plane then just raise the overspeed number in the aircraft.cfg file. :beer:





If it's stupid, but it works, it isn't stupid.

FSUIPC can help, by its wind smoothing feature. It slows down the rate at which the wind changes, and will give your autothrottle some more time to
adjust.
