Its actually
75KM but there is an +/- factor in the limit. At 78.5KM the autoflight takes over and announces, "
Je l'ai vous imbécile stupide. Je suis le capitaine maintenant and je débarquerai l'avion." which roughly translates to "
I have it you stupid imbecile. I am the captain now and I will land the airplane."
