At what altitude does the half bank mode automatically engage?

The half bank mode automatically engages at an altitude of 31,600 feet. This feature is designed to enhance aircraft handling and stability during certain phases of flight, particularly at high altitudes where more precise control inputs are often necessary. The engagement of half bank mode limits the maximum bank angle to 15 degrees instead of the usual 30 degrees, providing a more stable flight profile. This is particularly beneficial in cruise situations where more gentle handling is preferred to ensure passenger comfort and maintain the aircraft's performance.

The option indicating the correct altitude is based on industry standards for various aircraft and is often documented in the specific aircraft's operating manual or flight guidelines. Understanding this altitude limitation and its importance in the context of safety and aircraft control helps pilots in managing their flight more effectively.
