OM-B Standard Operating Procedures

Question 1

A/P must remain engaged for which app and until when?

Answer 1

11.10: For non-ILS approaches the autopilot should remain engaged until suitable visual references have been established on final approach

1.5.2: The use of the autopilot is required (if operational) for non-ILS approaches when the reported ceiling is less than 1,000 feet, or the reported visibility is less than 5 KM, or the reported weather is at the published minimum

Question 2

Reverse Thrust Policy

Answer 2

Maximum Rev shall be used during non-normal landing conditions (unless QRH/FCTM differs)

Detent 2 shall be used on non-dry runways

Detent 2 should be considered
* High elevation airports (4000ft)
* GCC, summer months, especially double sectors

As needed but at least idle rev for all other
