A320 nd and pfd hd5/24/2023 That means that the low speed end is at the bottom and the high speed end at the top.Because of this layout,all warnings associated with "OVERSPEEDS" including VFE appear RED on the TOP OF the speed Tape. The Speed Tape on the A320s PFDs, as also those i suppose in other 'Glass Cockpits'including Boeings,runs from bottom to top. However, it is my suspicion that the Speed Tape on the PFD(primary flight display) could have contributed significantly to the setting in, of this disorientation The primary finding,simply put, is ' pilot disorientation' Ever since i read the report on the Gulf Air A320 Accident in Bahrain, the bit about the '11 seconds of forward input on the sidestick from the time overspeed warning sounded,right upto the impact ' has been nagging me.
