Company wants it, but as err Buzz has stated it will probably not happen.

I understand. That is why I responded. I am just doing a little leg work for some options. That is all.

VNAV?

You're talking mumbo-jumbo. I fly a DC9. We are a /Antique.

This is a problem... I brought it up to a DGS guy who did a crossing with us.

Because the 767's auto-transition into CLB power determined by the accel height in the box. It could potentially screw up any sort of NADP profile, especially if you decide to clean up high or are fly best angle until above grid MORA...all bets are off, you'll be constantly speed intervening and trying to fight the box and NOT concentrating on path stuff.

Not a problem if you are flying one fleet type...but we have so much variability between the 757er's and 767's, this could be an issue.
