Does anyone know how VNAV is suppoed to work on the Longitude (Enhanced) when a hold occurs during descent?
I just flew a VNAV descent from FL450 to 3000ft with a hold at waypoint TUXEM during the descent, and that waypoint was designated to be ‘AT 7000ft’. (constraint no longer shown in screenshot)
When I reached TUXEM the plane correctly levelled off and flew the hold as desired at 7000ft. When I unsuspended the flightplan to continue the descent, that happened correctly too, with the descent resuming under VNAV.
So all good huh?
Apart from, during the hold, the VNAV constraint of 7000ft was no longer shown on PFD, with my manual contraint of 3000ft (for the next waypoint in the flightplan) still showing in green.
Surely the 7000ft whould still be shown at this time as the plane is very much still under VNAV control, with its constraints?
Anyone know what happens in the real plane and whether this is a buglet or real life implementation by Garmin.
I see no logic in hiding an active constraint at all.
See below. I’m in the hold. The plane is held at 7000ft by VNAV, but you would never know from the PFD ALT strip. Only at the top do you see V ALT 7000ft. I’d like to see a purple 7000 at the top of the ALT strip to better indicate what is going on.
If this is how it is in the real plane, then fine. Just seems like an omission.
