Q

How do you “step” through your CDU plan?

A

After inputting and executing plan, you have to activate and execute your plan.

Then, to “step” through to check each leg, go to “legs” and “Map” on EFIS which will give you the step option in LS 6

About 3-5 miles from FAF good idea to slow down 210 and configure

FYI On AP with VNAV engaged, the airspeed window should stay closed and the bug will move to your flap setting automatically.

Autopilot with airspeed window open

Q

VNAV Approach Procedures

A

Used on approaches that have vertical path parameters in the database. It won’t let you if it doesn’t.

BB, BBB, BB, B
Ensure LOC or ILS frequencies

LAVS P

  Cabin Crew prepare for landing  When on intercept heading  LNAV or HDG SEL  Plane already in VNAV will slow down If not in VNAV slow to 210

Adhere to flap schedule
Flaps 1
Speed checks flaps 1
Flaps 5
Speed checks flaps 5
“Arm LNAV” or “LNAV Armed” (if done already) or “VOR LOC”

Prior to 2 NM before FAF:
Engage AP
Set DA (H) or MDA (H) or VNAV may not descend
Select or verify VNAV
Verify VNAV Path annunciation
“VNAV Path”
“Approaching Glide Path”
“Gear down flaps 15”
Gear down flaps 15
Speed brake armed
vNAV intercept
“Flaps 30”
“Landing checklist”
“Set Missed approach altitude”
Wait until 300’ below MAP altitude to set MAP altitude

The rest of the procedures remain the same:
1000’
500’
50’ disconnect and land

18
Q

Go Around and Missed Approach

A

At the same time press TOGA

Q

Landing Roll

A

If autolanding was accomplished disengage AP, manually control

Reversers
“Speed Brakes UP”
“Reversers Normal”
“No reversers, or No rev #1,2”
“60 knots”
Stow reversers
Before taxi speed disarm auto brake
“Manual Brakes”

Q

After Landing Procedure

A

When clear of the active:

WX radar
Speed brakes lever down (thrust lever technique)
Landing lights
APU start/Online
Engine start switches off
Probe heat off
Strobes steady
F/D off
Auto brake off
Flaps up
Trim 5
TX TA

When turning into park
Lights off

Build it-CDU
Build it-NAV

Bug it-Vref
Bug it- Baro
Bug it-Altimeter
Bug it-MCP course

Brake it- Auto Brake
Brake it- recall

22
Q

V1 Cut with VNAV engaged

A

F:V1, rotate
C: maintain directional control, rotate 12.5 degrees, fly through goal post and maintain RWY heading

F: positive rate
C: gear up

400’
HDG sel or LNAV, Declare emergency with intentions

The F/D should be giving you guidance but don’t descent, maintain full thrust on good engine

1000’

VNAV (should give you appropriate v2 speeds to fly to your altitude in the altitude window

Retract flaps on schedule

Flaps up lights out

Autopilot on, Set continuous thrust, I have the controls and ATC execute the engine failure or shutdown checklist

When reaching the deferred items, execute the normal after takeoff checklist

Come up with a plan to land

Finish the deferred items in QRH checklist

23
Q

Single engine go-around

A

“Go around, TOGA flaps 1”

“Positive rate”

“Gear up”

400’

“LNAV or (HDG Sel if your intention is to fly RWY Hdg)”

1000’

“Set speed 210”

“Flaps up “ only after at or above flaps 1 speed

Flaps up lights out

“LVL change cont thrust”

 Flaps up lights out
