  • if available, SIC updates takeoff dataset, v-speeds, MCDU flap selection. (This may not be available yet, can accomplish when ACARS message posts).
    • regarding this step, display the message on MCDU #1 and endure passenger and cargo load info correct. If corrections required, do those on MCDU #2 (ZFW, TRS T/O dataset, MCDU flaps, v-speeds, stab trim)
48
Q

PIC calls for before start check, below the line

49
Q

What does the PIC say when pushback coordinator says “ready for push”?

A

50
Q

After the before start check is completed and pushback clearance is received, what happens?

A
  • PIC ensures the parking brake is off, and says “beacon on, brakes released, cleared to push”
  • SIC will begin engine start procedures
51
Q

When the pushback coordinator says “brakes set”, what happens?

A

PIC sets parking brake and verifies it’s set, verifies steering off, and says “brakes set, clear to disconnect”.

Pushback coordinator then says “roger, standby for hand signals.”

52
Q

After the pushback coordinator says “roger, standby for hand signals” after giving him the clear to disconnect call, what happens?

A

The pushback coordinator will salute the PIC (sometimes the SIC if circumstances require him to be on the right side), when the airplane is clear to taxi.

PIC (or SIC if directed by PIC), will return the salute.

53
Q

Let’s say you get your updated ACARS takeoff data during engine start, is it acceptable to input the updated data while the engine start is underway?

A

Negative ghost rider. Wait until after the engines are started and stable. Then pull up the message on MCDU #1 and input data (ZFW, takeoff dataset, MCDU flap selection, v-speeds, stab trim) into MCDU #2.

54
Q

If it’s night and you receive a salute from the pushback coordinator, he can’t see your salute. How do you accomplish a salute?

A

A flash of the taxi lights

55
Q

Even after the salute is received and reciprocated, and ground control gives you taxi instructions, wait for______to begin taxi.

A

The ramp personnel to be clear of the aircraft path AND jet blast.

56
Q

Before physically starting the engines, you must hear _____

A

The ramper say “clear to start.”

57
Q

After the salute is received, what happens?

A

PIC does his before taxi flow, then calls for “select takeoff flaps ___, flight controls check.”

58
Q

When does the PIC call for the “before taxi check”?

A

After the before taxi flow is complete and the flight control check is complete.

59
Q

If you received a runway change but the SID is the same, is it important to physically change the MCDU departure runway even if it’s the exact same flight plan and SID?

A

YES! It’s vital because it will screw up an RNAV departure. Even if it’s not an RNAV departure, ALWAYS update any runway changes.

60
Q

When do both pilots do their before takeoff flows?

A

Aprox 2 minutes before departure.

61
Q

When does the PIC call for the “before takeoff check”?

A

ONLY when both engines are running, and when the airplane is approaching the hold short line.
