[Fuel] Defueling or transferring fuel with passengers on board is
prohibited.
Flight Maneuvering Load Acceleration Limits Flaps Up

[Engines and APU] # Reduced Thrust - Use of assumed temperature reduced thrust procedures is not allowed when:
- The runway is contaminated with standing water, ice, slush, or snow
- With anti-skid inoperative
- With EEC is in Alternate mode
- The probability of windshear exists
[Flight Controls] # Avoid rapid and large alternating control inputs, especially…
in combination with large changes in pitch, roll, or yaw (e.g., large side slip angles) as they may result in structural failure at any speed, including below VA
[Flight Controls] # Do not deploy the speedbrakes in flight at
radio altitudes less than 1,000 feet.
[Fuel] Center tank fuel pumps must be “OFF” when:
- Center tank fuel is < 5,000 pounds and aircraft is readied for initial taxi
- Center tank fuel reaches approximately 1,000 pounds during climb
- Center tank fuel reaches 3,000 pounds during descent and landing
[Fuel] # Minimum fuel temperature
fuel freeze point of the fuel being used +3° C or –43° C, whichever is higher.
