Sidestick Priority

Post by Buford »

Hi,
is that description of the behavior of the sidestick priority pushbuttons on the sticks correct:
„A pilot can deactivate the other stick and take full control by pressing and keeping pressed his priority takeover push button.
For latching the priority condition, it is recommended to press the takeover push button for more than 40s.
This allows the pilot to release his takeover push button without losing priority.“
I did not recognize the priority is latched when pushing the button 40s or longer in A320 FMGS. When releasing the button the red arrow in the annunciator korry disappears and the other stick is connected normally. Is that not simulated (or perhaps wrong?) or is it incorrect to configure „Button Release“ as release event?
See you in the skies…
