Windshear Escape Maneuver steps when hand flying
Call “Max thrust, stow speed brake”
* Press TO/GA switch
* Aggressively apply maximum thrust (mechanical stops)
* Disconnect autothrottle
* Wings level, pitch to 15 degrees nose high
* Retract speed brakes
* Follow flight director TO/GA guidance

Call “Max thrust, stow speed brake”
* Leave autopilot engaged if desired
* Press TO/GA switch
* Verify TO/GA mode annunciation
* Verify GA thrust
* Retract speed brakes
* Monitor system performance
What is the United mantra on dealing with emergencies?
Fly the aircraft - silence the warning - confirm the emergency
Windshear Escape Maneuver with autopilot off
- Press TO/GA switch
- Aggressively apply maximum thrust (mechanical stops)
- Disconnect autothrottle
- Simultaneously roll wings level and rotate toward an initial pitch attitude of 15 degrees.

- Follow flight director TO/GA guidance (if available)
Captain duties for a rejected takeoff
- Calls “Reject” or “Reject, I have the aircraft.”
- Both thrust levers to IDLE & autothrottle off
- Confirms RTO braking (or manual brakes if RTO not active).
- Manually raises speed brake lever
- Initiates maximum thrust reversers (consistent with runway conditions)
- Calls for the “Rejected Takeoff checklist”
What is the limit on DUCT PRESSURE
A duct pressure DIFFERENCE of more than 8 PSI may indicate a mechanical malfunction. If a duct pressure SPLIT is observed after bleeds are configured for flight, AND the LOWEST indication is approximately 18 PSI or less, contact maintenance.
4 things that would cause a high-speed abort (verbatim)
- Engine failure
- Any fire indication

- REMF
- Fuel for alternate
- Reserve fuel in the FMC
