AUTOMATIC SPEED PROTECTION IN V/S (OR FPA) MODE IN CLIMB<br />
When climbing with V/S mode engaged: If the selected V/S value is excessive (with regards<br />
to thrust and speed), the FMGES maintains the V/S target, but the airspeed decreases. When<br />
reaching VLS (or VLS-5, if the speed target is VLS), the AP temporarily abandons the V/S target,<br />
and automatically decreases the vertical speed to maintain VLS.<br />
The same applies, if FPA mode is used with an excessive FPA target.<br />
