Q

WARNING: The RVSM-critical areas are identified by corner markings
surrounding the area near the static ports on the fuselage.
Within the RVSM-critical area, pay particular attention for
any damage or obstruction to the airplane’s surface that
may disrupt airflow. Water rundown after snow removal
can freeze immediately forward of static ports and cause
an ice buildup which disturbs airflow over the static ports
resulting in erroneous static readings even when static
ports are clear. Missing paint in the RVSM-critical area is
acceptable. Any other form of damage, to include paint
damage (e.g., peeling, blistering), is not acceptable unless
properly inspected and noted in the maintenance
paperwork as a carried forward or deferred item.

WARNING: To prevent injury to personnel or damage to equipment, do not release the parking brake until the Before Push Checklist is complete and the ground crew is ready.
3.30.1 Normals Before Push
26
WARNING: For all pushbacks, to prevent injury to personnel or damage to equipment, do not release the parking brake until the Before Push Checklist is complete and the ground crew is ready. If the airplane inadvertently detaches from the tug, the ground crew immediately states “Breakaway, breakaway” to indicate the airplane is no longer under tug control. Use brakes to carefully and slowly bring the airplane to a stop. A maintenance defect report is required prior to taxi. Never release the parking brake to assist in disconnecting the towbar, even when requested by ground personnel. If using hand signals, returning the “brakes off” hand signal indicates to the marshaller the brakes are released, pushback clearance has been received, and pushback can be initiated. Do not start engines during pushback when using hand signals. Pushback using hand signals at night is not authorized. See FOM>Operating Information>Departure Procedures>Pushback Procedures>Communications Coordination>Pushback Using Hand Signals.
3.40.2 Normals Pushback/Tow-Out

PREDICTIVE (PWS) AND REACTIVE (GPWS) INDICATIONS AND PROCEDURES WARNING: Immediately initiate the windshear escape maneuver whenever flight path control becomes marginal on takeoff or landing. Do not wait for the GPWS or predictive windshear (PWS) aural warning. If severe windshear is encountered anytime after V1 or while airborne, immediately execute the GPWS Windshear Escape Maneuver. The absence of PWS alerts does not eliminate the possibility of windshear. The PWS symbol may not display the entire hazard area; it may be placed at the location of a rain shaft when the actual downdraft zone is outside of the rain shaft.
5.10.51 Supplementary Procedures Adverse Weather Operations
77
REACTIVE WINDSHEAR ESCAPE MANEUVER Condition: GPWS senses windshear encounter: “Windshear, windshear, windshear.” WARNING: This maneuver is to be performed whether escape from windshear encounter is initiated as a result of an aural warning or flight instrument indications, or both. WARNING: Severe windshear may exceed the performance of the AFDS. The PF must be prepared to disconnect the autopilot and autothrottle to fly the maneuver manually. If flight path control becomes marginal at low altitude, initiate the windshear escape maneuver without delay. Either pilot calls, “Max thrust, stow speed brake.” WARNING: Ensure the AFDS does not capture the MCP altitude and enter ALT HOLD as this will reduce the thrust for a level off.
5.10.53 Supplementary Procedures Adverse Weather Operations

3.80.1 Normals Before Takeoff
152
CAUTION: VNAV shall not be armed on the ground if the engine failure procedure for the takeoff runway contains conditions requiring either of the following: The completion of a turn to a specified heading before accelerating. Becoming established on a defined lateral course before accelerating. The above restriction does not apply if an engine failure procedure only requires the initiation of a turn after takeoff with subsequent acceleration at a specified engine-out acceleration altitude.
3.80.5 Normals Before Takeoff
153
CAUTION: If no TOW value (LSK 4R) is displayed on the FMC TAKEOFF REF page 1/2, data has been manually entered. Both pilots must verify manual entries.
3.80.6 Normals Before Takeoff
154
CAUTION: Initiate rotation at VR without delay. Proper rotation rate is critical to avoid a tailstrike and/or tire overspeed. CAUTION: The vertical speed indicators and radio altimeters will indicate a climb before the main gear is off the ground. Confirm a sustained positive climb rate is indicated on the barometric altimeter and the VSI.
3.90.4 Normals Takeoff
155
TAKEOFF ROLL CAUTION: The tiller should not be used above normal taxi speeds. CAUTION: During takeoff, if an engine exceedance occurs after 100 knots, do not retard the thrust lever in an attempt to control the exceedance. Retarding the thrust levers after thrust is set invalidates takeoff performance. After takeoff, when the PF determines that altitude and airspeed are acceptable (minimum 400 AGL), retard the thrust lever until the exceedance value is within limits and accomplish the appropriate non-normal checklist.
3.90.8 Normals Takeoff
156
Takeoff Roll, Control Wheel Displacement, and Liftoff CAUTION: Excessive control wheel displacement during rotation and liftoff increases spoiler deployment. As spoiler deployment increases, drag increases and lift is reduced which results in reduced tail clearance, a longer takeoff roll, and slower airplane acceleration.
3.90.9 Normals Takeoff
157
Gusty Wind and/or Strong Crosswind Conditions CAUTION: With manually entered takeoff data, no TOW value (4R) will be displayed on the FMC TAKEOFF REF page 1/2. Takeoff data must be verified by reference to the ACARS Takeoff Data message.

159
AFTER TAKEOFF GENERAL The PM initiates the After Takeoff Flow when the PF calls "Flaps up, after takeoff checklist." The PM ensures the procedures have been completed and then accomplishes the After Takeoff Checklist. Do not allow accomplishing the checklist to interfere with outside vigilance while departing the terminal area. CAUTION: To avoid the possibility of the shoulder harness buckles snapping back and inadvertently pulling circuit breakers, hold both straps before releasing and then allow the straps to retract slowly to the stowed position.

3.174.2 Normals LOC and VOR Approaches
168
After cleared for the approach: CAUTION: The circle-to-land maneuver may be flown following any instrument approach procedure. During the instrument approach, use VNAV or V/S modes to descend to the circling MDA(H). Use of the APP mode for descent to the circling MDA(H) is not recommended for several reasons: The AFDS does not level off at MCP altitude. Exiting the APP mode requires initiating a go-around or disengaging the autopilot and turning off the flight directors. Maintain circle-to-land minimums (or 1000 feet HAA, whichever is higher) using ALT HOLD mode. Use HDG SEL for the circle-to-land maneuver.

SPEED BRAKE CAUTION: To protect as much as possible from tailstrike during landing, the PF must ensure that the landing attitude does not increase after touchdown.
3.200.9 Normals Landing
177
BOUNCED LANDING CAUTION: Touching down with the power on will often cause a skip or bounce that would not have occurred with the power off. During the resultant bounce, if the thrust levers are then retarded to idle, automatic speed brake deployment can occur resulting in a loss of lift and a nose-up pitching moment, which can result in a tailstrike or hard landing on a subsequent touchdown.
3.200.13 Normals Landing
178
Rejected Landing CAUTION: If TO/GA is selected after touchdown, flight director goaround mode is not available and manual thrust must be used. CAUTION: Use of VNAV during go-around/missed approach not approved while flaps are extended.
3.200.14 Normals Landing
179
CAUTION: Certain combinations of high altitudes, high landing weights, and high temperatures may cause excessive brake and tire heating during the landing. This may result in fuse plug melting or may severely affect braking capability during a subsequent rejected takeoff. To preclude such problems, it is important to reference the quick turn around limit weight data; see Performance>Normal Performance Tables>Approach and Landing.
3.220.3 Normals Parking
180
CAUTION: Possible supply duct manifold damage may occur when APU air and ground preconditioned air are being supplied to the airplane simultaneously. To avert possible damage to the ducting system(s), accomplish the following: If preconditioned air is supplied after gate arrival, the APU BLEED air switch and air conditioning PACK switches must be turned OFF. If preconditioned air is not supplied after gate arrival, the APU BLEED air switch and air conditioning PACK switch(es) must be turned OFF prior to the last pilot leaving the flight deck. Passenger comfort should always be a consideration before this is accomplished.

5.10.13 Supplementary Procedures Adverse Weather Operations
192
AFTER LANDING CAUTION: After landing and/or if taxiing through water or slush, do not retract flaps beyond 15. A visual inspection should be accomplished to determine that the flaps and flap areas are clear of ice before further flap retraction. The jackscrews are especially vulnerable to water and slush. CAUTION: After landing during moderate to heavy freezing precipitation conditions, every attempt should be made to keep both engines running continuously with engine antiice selected on during ground operations.
5.10.15 Supplementary Procedures Adverse Weather Operations
193
DEICING/ANTI-ICING CAUTION: After deicing, use of APU bleed air during takeoff may cause smoke in the airplane.
5.10.17 Supplementary Procedures Adverse Weather Operations
194
CAUTION: Operate the APU during deicing only if necessary. If the APU is running, ingestion of deicing fluid causes objectionable fumes and odors to enter the airplane. Ingestion of snow, slush, ice, or deicing/anti-icing fluid can also cause damage to the APU.
5.10.17 Supplementary Procedures Adverse Weather Operations
195
HOT WEATHER OPERATION High ground temperatures have adverse effects on passenger and pilot comfort and generally decrease airplane performance. Every effort should be made to keep the interior of the airplane as cool as possible. CAUTION: Window heat must be ON 10 minutes before takeoff. CAUTION: Packs can be damaged if they are operated while ground conditioned air is connected.
5.10.19 Supplementary Procedures Adverse Weather Operations

Flight Plan Route Uplink CAUTION: Failure to load uplinked data may inhibit further uplinks to the FMC.
Supplementary Procedures Communication/Navigation
206
Manual Wind Request CAUTION: Failure to ACCEPT/LOAD or ERASE uplinked data may inhibit further uplinks to the FMC and automatic position reporting to Dispatch. Ensure descent winds are loaded in the FMC to prevent blocking subsequent FMC uplinks.
5.40.6 Supplementary Procedures Communication/Navigation
207
VNAV Climb Setup CAUTION: VNAV shall not be armed on the ground if the engine failure procedure for the takeoff runway contains conditions which require: The completion of a turn to a specified heading before accelerating, or Becoming established on a defined lateral course before accelerating The above restriction does not apply if an engine failure procedure only requires the initiation of a turn after takeoff with subsequent acceleration at a specified engine-out acceleration altitude.
5.40.8 Supplementary Procedures Communication/Navigation
208
CAUTION: With the exception for SLOP, if an OFFSET is executed for wake turbulence or weather, the start and termination of the offset must be reported via voice. (The oceanic controller must reconcile any differences between a position report and the cleared route.)
5.40.31 Supplementary Procedures Communication/Navigation
209
When the DCL is Received CAUTION: Pilots must look for a LOAD prompt on every CPDLC message sent. This prompt may be on the last page of the message. If present, new routing has been sent from ATC, and it must be loaded into the FMC and reviewed prior to accepting the CPDLC DCL.
5.40.35 Supplementary Procedures Communication/Navigation
210
LOADING AND REVIEWING UPLOADED CLEARANCES CAUTION: If a new route was uploaded, the departure runway and SID must be reloaded in the FMC. CAUTION: Do not modify the ATC uplinked clearance after loading.
5.40.39 Supplementary Procedures Communication/Navigation
211
CAUTION: After loading the route, do not use the FMC RTE page ROUTE REQUEST function, as this will delete the ATCassigned route that was loaded in the FMC with the LOAD> prompt. LOAD prompt This prompt must be selected to load the new ATC clearance into the FMC. Pilots must load the ATC-provided cleared route into the FMC and ensure it contains no discontinuities prior to accepting it. If discontinuities are found, reject the clearance and contact clearance delivery via voice. CAUTION: Every time the LOAD prompt is selected, the Runway/SID must be manually reloaded.
5.40.42 Supplementary Procedures Communication/Navigation
212
CAUTION: Always check for a LOAD prompt at 4R on page 1 or page 2. If LOAD appears, there is a loadable clearance available. Do not send an ACCEPT response without first selecting LOAD and identifying the changes in routing that you will be expected to comply with. See Loadable CPDLC Clearances this section.
5.40.49 Supplementary Procedures Communication/Navigation
213
CAUTION: Navigating in LNAV mode with an unreliable FMC position may result in significant navigation errors.
5.40.84 Supplementary Procedures Communication/Navigation
214
RUNWAY CHANGE Use this procedure when takeoff runway or conditions affecting performance data has changed from that previously programmed. CAUTION: Failure to make runway changes on the DEP/ARR page may result in incorrectly programmed departure procedures and subsequent vertical/lateral navigation errors.

PILOT PROCEDURES CAUTION: In the event that the ramp is closed, deplaning is prohibited. Airport Operations will wait until the ramp opens to commence deplaning.
5.100.13 Supplementary Procedures Miscellaneous
218
CAUTION: Do not rotate early or rapidly. Early or rapid rotation increases the risk of aft body contact (tail strike). Late or slow rotation increases the takeoff ground roll. Either improper rotation technique reduces initial climb performance and obstacle clearance margins.
6.20.21 Maneuvers Non-Normal Maneuvers
219
TERRAIN ESCAPE (GPWS/EGPWS PROFILES) CAUTION: In certain circumstances, it is possible to receive a "Too Low Terrain" aural warning that is generated by the flaps not being in the landing configuration. In this case, pilots may not receive a "Too Low Flaps" warning. If this occurs below 500 feet AGL, a terrain escape maneuver must be performed.
6.40.10 Maneuvers Supplementary Maneuvers
220
TRAFFIC ALERT AND COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM GENERAL CAUTION: Once an RA has been issued, safe separation could be compromised if current vertical speed is changed, except as necessary to comply with the RA. This is because TCASto- TCAS coordination may be in progress with the intruder aircraft, and any change in vertical speed that does not comply with the RA may negate the effectiveness of the other aircraft’s compliance with the RA.
6.40.13 Maneuvers Supplementary Maneuvers
221
CAUTION: ACARS can provide non-normal landing performance data only if dispatched with an MEL restriction. To determine landing distances for non-normals occurring after takeoff that affect landing performance: Use FM or QRH Non-Normal Configuration Landing Distance tables, or Contact Dispatch.
7.20.21 Performance Normal Performance General
222
Normal Landing Distance CAUTION: When using a Normal Landing Distance table, if a landing using maximum manual brakes cannot be accomplished after applying Step 3 (15% safety margin), consider all options before using the adjusted landing distance (Step 2). The adjusted landing distance without a 15% safety margin may be used if the Captain determines that a landing on that runway is the safest course of action.
