(AOM 1.3.0) CDFA, Stabilized Approach Criteria, Latitude Approach Guidance, Mode Annunciations (RKA) Flashcards
CDFA Criteria (AOM 2.21.8)
Straight-in minimums must be published.
Descent Angle (Glideslope, Glidepath Angle, or Vertical Descent Angle (VDA)) must be published on the approach chart.
Use only local altimeter.
Apply cold weather altimeter corrections as prescribed in the FOM.
How do you calculate a DDA (AOM 2.21.8.1)
Add 50 ft to the minimums of the Non-Precision Approach Without Vertical Guidance, including the following minima references: MDA, DA, CDFA DA/MDA
Set BARO minimums to DDA.
CDFA Approach AAD (AOM 2.21.8.1)
Set AAD prior to FAF according to Approach Guidance and Mode Annunciations for Approach to DA or DDA (including CDFA)
CDFA Descent LNAV only minimums (AOM 2.21.8.1)
Ensure GP captures and follows the vertical path angle
Set MAA in AAD
CDFA Descent all other straight in approaches (AOM 2.21.8.1)
Use VS
Set VS to the target ed vertical speed derived from the approach chart descent/timing conversion table
Set MAA in AAD
CDFA Step Down Altitude Warning (AOM 2.21.8.1)
All step-down altitude restrictions must be met. Monitor vertical profile comparing Baro-altitude against distance by using FMS distance of DME
CDFA at DDA Minimums (AOM 2.21.8.1)
Approach lights in sight - Continue to 100 ft above TDZE
Runway in sight - Continue to normal landing
Runway or approach lights not in sight - Do not level off. Initiate missed approach and maintain track to MAP before making any turns
CDFA Below DDA warning (AOM 2.21.8.1)
Below the DDA, constant descent flight path, including synthetic glidepath derived by VNAV, does not assure obstacle clearance. Terrain and obstacles must be avoided visually

Fully configure for landing and reduce speed to VREF prior to glidepath interception
Stabilized Approach Height IMC (AOM 2.21.7)

As required for the maneuver
Tolerance: Not greater than 30 degrees
Circle-to-land stabilized approach wings level criteria (AOM 2.21.7)
0 to 15 degrees of bank
Tolerance: 300 ft above TDZE
VOR or NDB Approach without “GPS GNSS” in the approach title (AOM 2.21.9)
Verify approach navigation aid and aircraft navigation aid receivers are operational.
PF displays and monitors the FMS generated course
From FAF, continuously display and monitor the final approach course raw data as follows: PF Bearing 1 pointer, PM NDB: Bearing 2 pointer; VOR: CDI
Initiate a missed approach if the tolerances of the underlying ground based procedure are exceeded or the navigation aid signal is lost
FMS/RNAV & Baro-VNAV(AOM 2.21.10)
FMS may be used to fly:
RNAV Approaches with (LPV, LNAV-VNAV to DA minimums)
RNAV Approaches (LNAV only to DDA) RNAV Approaches LNAV only to MDA)
VOR or NDB approaches using FMS overlay
Baro-VNAV information (AOM 2.21.10)
Advisory Only when conducting an approach with LNAV minimums.
The primary altimeter is the controlling source for altitude information.
Baro-VNAV use (AOM 2.21.10)
Must have published Vertical Descent Angle (VDA)
VDA must be in FMS database
Autopilot or Flight Director must be used
Do not use VNAV on approach when using remote altimeter setting or QFE
Monitor Glidepath and comply with step-down altitudes
