GA (Go Around) mode behavior?

• A. Maintains current altitude
• B. Acquires and holds a vertical speed of 1000 ft/min and after 10 seconds, reverts to VS mode
• C. Sets a fixed altitude
• D. Engages go-around at higher speed

Answer: (B)

Go Around mode is about quickly establishing a safe climb when the approach is aborted. When GA is engaged, the system drives a positive climb by targeting a vertical speed of about 1000 ft/min to ensure rapid obstacle clearance and a stable transition to the missed-approach path. After about 10 seconds, control returns to vertical speed mode, so the aircraft continues the climb using the selected vertical speed setting rather than trying to hold a fixed altitude. This behavior makes GA focused on a prompt, orderly ascent rather than freezing at the current altitude or setting an unintended fixed altitude.
