Trim drag. Pilots use the horizontal stabilizer to push the tail down to keep the nose up. This creates drag.
While Airbus VACBI is overwhelmingly positive, adoption is not without hurdles.
The VACBI system on the Airbus A320 automatically adjusts the engine thrust setting to maintain a stable cruise speed, taking into account factors such as aircraft weight, altitude, and temperature. When the system detects that the aircraft is deviating from its planned cruise speed, it adjusts the engine thrust to bring the aircraft back on track.
