VR. If you are at max everything and you rotate to early the drag could ruin you day.
18
Q
What can we do to ensure we don’t overshoot a Localizer due to high speeds or greater intercept angles than we would like?
A
Use NAV until joining the localizer, then hit APPR/LAND.
NAV is much more precise….its smarter than APPR/LAND.
And // less than 200 kts

3. Disconnect auto throttles at 50 ft or prior.
Check this answer for accuracy..(Chad)
46
When would we expect to see the ENG FAIL warning?

2. Cabin airflow insufficient for pressurization or
3. Cabin Alt > 10,0000 ft.
Note> Flow light in auto mode indicates that the venturi has been automatically closed and the exhaust fan has been turned on. In manual we have to push the FLOW/OVRD switch to accomplish this.
49
What is the most critical switch on the AIR/ PNEUMATIC panel?
The Cabin Air Switch.
This is the lithium battery light. It indicates smoke is detected in the Upper Cargo. most likely because we cary shit loads of lithium batteries that passenger carries would not dream of carrying.
50
What happens when the SMOKE light illuminates under the CABIN AIR switch.
Nothing.
Note> Nothing happens automatically, the switch must be pushed in both auto
And manual
51
