-flaps not up
-GS green
Pushing TO/GA single A/P
-above 2000ft RA with flaps not up
-GS green

-GA or TO mode engaged below 400ft RA

Question 4

Answer 4

Engaged for go–around by pushing the TO/GA switch under the following conditions:

• inflight below 2000 feet radio altitude

• not in takeoff mode
• either F/D ON or OFF.

Question 5

LNAV interception

Answer 5

On any heading up to 3nm.

More then 3nm, 90 degrees or less and interception before active point.

Question 6

Answer 11

MCP SPD

HDG SEL

Question 12

ILS AUTO LAND steps

Answer 12

ILS anomaly or failure- A/P disengage.
Hydraulic failure A or B - both A/P disengages.
Below 1500ft - ILS deviation test, FLARE armed, second A/P couples with flight controls.
800ft - Second A/P must be engaged
500ft - verify FLARE armed, no steady A/P WARNING light.
400ft - nose up trim, FLARE not armed A/P disengage by 350ft.
50ft - FLARE engaged, FD bars retract.
27ft - A/T RETARD.
Rollout - A/T disconnect 2 seconds after touchdown.
