Wx radar predictive windshear alerting |
Below 1200'
*only provided for areas containing some moisture or particulate matter * can be enabled prior to TO by pushing EFIS control panel WXR switch
Aural alert MONITOR RADAR DISPLAY - WS w/in 3nm and ahead (GO AROUND) WINDSHEAR AHEAD - WS close to and directly ahead |
|
Wx radar panel (auto displays) |
WS - to 5nm Turbulence - to 60nm Wx - to 320nm |
|
Wx radar (CAL) |
= auto gain control Max only used at cruise to help see less reflective frozen storm tops |
|
Reduced thrust TO, max thrust reduction authorized |
25% |
|
Limitation on Assumed temp TO |
Do not use if: - reduced RFI - potential WS If inc thrust required, can apply full thrust (or up to derate limit) |
|
VERIFY GW AND FUEL |
- both Totalizer and calculated fuel values invalid - crew manually enter est fuel and weight periodically |
|
CHECK FMC FUEL QUANTITY |
- unexpected drop in fuel quantity
Suspect leak if - change in fuel imbalance of 500lbs in 30mins |
|
USING RSV FUEL |
Estimate is less than fuel reserve value entered |
|
Phases of flight |
Pre-flight phase TO phase - TOGA to thrust reduction Climb - thrust red to TOC Cruise - incl step climb and en-route des Descent - T/D to E/D Approach - 2nm from 1st wpt of pub app transition or w/in 2000' of a/d elev Flight complete phase |
|
LNAV capture criteria |
If selected, engages when
Laterally w/in 3nm of active leg If outside 3nm, if on intercept hdg of <90°
NOT ON INTERCEPT HDG = if outside capture criteria *of on HDG ensure wings lvl before engaging |
|
Pilot defined lat/long wpt |
Leading zeros must be entered Decimal pts to 1/10 minute entered Ex N4731.8W12218.3 |
|
Pilot defined place/bearing |
Ex YVR330/10 |
|
Pilot defined along track wpt |
Wptname/distance (ex NIK/-15)
Use (-) if before (+) not req for after |
|
Descent target speeds |
FMC adjusts descent profile for wpt speed/ altitude constraints Descent path assumes decel to reach FAF or GS intercept at Vref40+20kts Target speeds changed by entries on DESCENT pg |
|
Early descent (prior to T/D) |
To activate: - DES NOW prompt on DESCENT pg 3/3 - Push ALT INTV PTH descent - VNAV commands 1000fpm until path intercepted SPD descent - VNAV commands idle thrust |
|
Blw 2000' GA logic when |
- TOGA pushed while in descent - executing direct to wpt in MA - when last wpt of app cycles to 1st on MA - a/c climbs at VS > 600fpm and flaps retracted from landing setting |
|
FMC changes when GA initiated |
LNAV may be engaged when a/c climbs ab 400' VNAV not be engaged until after flap retraction
Cruz alt becomes highest of - highest constraint in MA - 1500' ab a/d elev - MCP altitude
Dest a/d becomes origin a/d |
|
If leveled off, to continue climb |
- set new altitude in MCP alt selector - push VNAV |
|
Engine out data (VNAV pg) |
Max alt = company specified RoC using 1-engine at max con thrust Eng out spd = min drag e/o climb speed |
|
UNABLE NEXT ALTITUDE |
- climb speed profile unable to meet wpt altitude constraint N1 limit pg - Max rate clb or Max angle clb |
|
Set intercept course |
Select wpt to scratchpad then back to original position INTC CRS (R6) Enter desired intercept course, EXEC Re-engage LNAV |
|
Call abeam |
Select direct to wpt Select ABEAM PTS EXEC |
|
Offset |
Select RTE Select OFFSET prompt Enter direction (L/R) and distance (up to 99nm), EXEC
To exit, either - delete from offset pg OR - proceed direct to wpt |
|
FIX key |
Allows fix to be displayed on ND Radial distance may be entered and line selected to LEGS to create new wpt |
|
VNAV cruise pg |
Displays: - optimum and max altitudes - turb N1 - fuel at destination RTA - permits entry of wpt w/ req time of arrival |
|
DES FORECASTS pg |
From VNAV pg - can enter anti-ice altitudes, temps, winds for more accurate descent profile |
|
TCAS |
TFC (EFIS panel) must be selected to display TCAS info - TFC annunciated on PFD Unfilled white diamond - > 6nm + w/in 1200' Filled white diamond - w/in 6nm + w/in 1200' but no threat Filled amber circle TA - will enter conflict area w/in 40 secs - "Traffic traffic" Filled red square - will enter conflict area w/in 25 secs - PFD vertical guidance displayed + voice |
|
Tail skid cartridge |
Must show green and red |
|
Maintenance light |
System fault exists and must be reviewed by maintenance |
|
MINIMUMS |
Based on altitude set by Captains minimums selector |
|
FMS will not sequence active waypoint (distance out) |
A/c passes Abram wpt >21nm |
|
TEMP COMP |
Dep/Arr ... enter instrument app APP REF pg (2/2) Verify dest airport Dest airport temp ... enter and exec Start Waypoint .. set or verify (defaults IAF) Legs pg .. verify |
