Often times I fly through the FD…. Sometimes it’s on… But I am on the guppy and only flown Boeings and CRJs, I can’t comment on the Airbus FD.
I often fly past the FD as well because it sometimes is not the best or even reliable guidance for a few moments. I announce purposefully doing whatever for whatever and have the PM fix it if it’s egregious for too long. Again, guppy perspective but assumed this works in the bus..
I feel like I had to do this occasionally in the Embraer but for less often…
