Takeoff and Go-Around Function (TO/GA)

Single Engine F/D Go–Around (Cont'd.)
  • If engine failure occurs prior to go–around engagement, then
    F/D target speed is the selected MCP speed.

  • If engine failure occurs after go–around engagement, then F/D
    target speed depends on whether ten seconds have elapsed
    since go–around engagement:
  • If prior to ten seconds, the MCP selected approach speed
    becomes target speed.

  • If after ten seconds and the airspeed at engine failure is within five
    knots of the go–around engagement speed, the airspeed that
    existed at go–around engagement becomes target speed.

  • If after ten seconds and the airspeed at engine failure is more than
    five knots above go–around engagement speed, then the current
    airspeed becomes target speed.
Note: The target speed is never less than V2 speed based on flap position unless in
windshear conditions. F/D commanded acceleration cannot occur until a higher speed is
selected on the MCP IAS/Mach display.
