As an alternative to the ongoing managed descent bug, which compromises flight stability, I’ve found that following the green dot on the altitude tape with V/S works just fine with Airbus aircraft. Similarly, I also use the vertical profile equipped on the 737 series with V/S.
Though, with aircraft like the 777 and 747, which do not possess that technology, what do I do? I haven’t used both aircraft since and would love to use them again if there was a solution provided to this issue
