[OM.8-4-2, 2 Exception for Composition]
B787-9 requires 8 CA's
Minimum Composition:
If a cabinet attendant becomes incapacitated and a replacement is not feasable, the flight may be conducted with using 1 CA per 50 pax. However, this rule is not applied at Narita.
101
Minimum Fuel
MINIMUM FUEL: When having committed to land at a specific aerodrome, the pilot calculates that any change to the existing clearance may result in landing with less than 30 minutes of the planned reserve fuel.
MAYDAY FUEL: When the calculated fuel predicted to be available upon landing at the nearest aerodrome where a safe landing can be made is less than 30 minutes of the planned reserve fuel.
IFR Reserve: 30min holding at 1500ft in ISA.
No Alternates Preflight: 2hr at cruising speed.
No Alternates During Flight: 45min holding at 1500ft in ISA.
Fuel Low: [OM.S-3-9, (3). Fuel Low Stage]
MIN Required Fuel on Board: [OM.3-4-2, (5) Fuel Loading Policy]
102
Additional Fuel.
Refer to the sample FLT Plan (RJAA-ROAH) to be used for SIM check.
Additional Fuel A:
RJBB is used for Additional Fuel calculation. (ETP DATA: RJAA/RJBB, RJBB/ROAH)
Required fuel from ETP to RJBB is calculated considering two scenarios, ENG Out and Decompression.
Whichever is greater becomes Additional Fuel A
Additional Fuel B:
The description in OM is not accurate.
Fuel B is the required holding fuel over RJBB in this example. 15 minutes holding at 1500' (ISA).
Since it was verified that no additional fuel is required,
NO ADD F CONFIRMED is indicated in the FUEL PLAN section of this FLT Plan.

What is controlling the Forward and Aft CG limit?
The forward CG limit ensures the aircraft is not too nose-heavy, which could lead to insufficient tail lift and difficulties in controlling the pitch. Conversely, the aft CG limit prevents the aircraft from being tail-heavy, which can cause instability and potential loss of control, especially during takeoff or landing.
107

A.
Is today's SID a RNAV 1 or RNP1 SID?
OLVAN 2 is RNAV1 SID
PEDLA 1 is RNAV1 SID
118
A.
Difference between RNAV1 departure and RNP1 Departure.
Page 175 OM.
RNAV ops means an RNAV operation on designated routes which requires a nav accuracy of ±1 NM for 95% of the total flight time.
Requirements:
1. Before Departure CPT and FD have to check GPS availability (min 23 satellites) +RAIM Prediction (No RAIM Hole for more than 5 minutes on route where GPS will be used as primary).
If it is less than 23 satellites then have to change the navigation to other or check RAIM availability and plan should be revised to avoid RAIM Hole.
2. When DME/DME or DME/DME/IRU are used as primary sensors then max DME GAP is 14NM.
3. Make sure all equipment to fly RNAV 1 is serviceable.
4. Use autopilot and FD (not required for RNAV 2)
5. Required equipment:
2x FMC, 1x IRU, 1x DME (or 1x GPS)
6. Letter R should be placed in ATS flight plan and D1 in block 18 after PBN..
RNP1 ops means an RNAV operation on designated routes which requires a nav accuracy of ±1 NM for 95% of the total flight time + On-Board performance monitoring and alerting.
1.-4. Before flight CPT and FD should check all the same things (equipment, GPS, satellites, RAIM, database) + pilots to verify RNP value is set in FMC and not greater than 1NM.
Check that GPS updating is available before TO.
5. Required equipment:
2x FMC, 2x IRU (or 1x IRU and 1x AHRU), 2x GPS and 2x ND.
6. Letter R should be placed in ATS flight plan and O1 in block 18 after PBN.

A.
Flight deck information if the airplane is RNAV 1 or RNP1 capable?
AOM 10.30.4 pg. 3208
ANP indication on Nav performance scales. Below RNP and not amber.
When GPS updating ANP value is small and bars are short. When not available the bars grow toward centre of scale.
There is no NAV UNABLE RNP Eicas message.
Other equipment required for RNAV or RNP is servicable. (FMC,GPS,DME etc..)
120
A.
If you are to fly an RNP1 SID, what will you verify before TO?
Main answer is 4 and 5 below but I added extra in case they ask.
1. Confirm database is current.
2. Equipment is working
3. Must be retrievable by route name from FMC
4. RNP value set in FMC is not greater than 1NM.
5. GPS updating available.
