To complete a landing calculation, entries in the following fields are required:
• ARPT – destination airport
• RWY – planned landing runway
• COND – landing runway condition
• WIND – airport surface wind
• OAT – outside air temperature
• QNH – altimeter setting
• FLAP – landing flap position
• A/I – anti-ice setting
These required entries can be made by a combination of transferring the
destination airport from the FMC and manual entry, or by manual entry alone.
The CALC soft key does not become available until all the required entries are
complete. If an invalid value was entered in a field (for example, 299.2 in the QNH
field or 430/15 in the WIND field), a system error is displayed either after entry,
or after CALC is selected.
The following fields are also available for use when required:
• BRKS – braking method
• NNC – non-normal landing configurations that effect performance
• ADD ARPT – temporary creation of an airport runway that is not in the
OPT application database
• NOTAMS – temporary creation of a runway NOTAM that effects runway
length or obstacles and may affect performance calculations
• ARPT INFO – displays airport, runway and obstacle information
• ADD ARPT – temporary creation of an airport runway that is not
contained in the database
• NOTAMS – temporary creation of a runway NOTAM that effects runway
length or obstacles and may affect performance calculations
• SHOW/HIDE KYBD – display or hide the keyboard
• SHOW TAKEOFF – toggles between the Performance Takeoff and
Landing pages
• COPY FMC DATA – copy data from the FMC for use in performance
calculations
• SEND OUTPUT – send performance data to various locations
• CALC – initiates the performance calculation
• MEL – items that may affect performance calculations
• CDL – items that may affect performance calculations
There are two types of landing calculations OPT can perform, dispatch and
enroute advisory.
