AOM-145/1114
The FMS LOC, B/C, GPS, NDB, RNAV, VOR, VOR/DME and VFR
approaches may be linked into the flight plan and laterally coupled to
the autopilot/Flight Director as follows:
APPROACH TRANSITION
When a entire approach transition (e.g., procedure turn, DME arc, etc.)
is to be flown, the FMS will automatically enter in the ARM APPR
mode at 30 nm from the runway with the lateral deviation scaling of
1 nm (full scale), then:
NAV Mode (Flight Guidance Controller) ....................... SELECT
The approach will be automatically activated prior to the FAF and
the lateral deviation scaling will change to 0.3 nm full scale.
The VNAV scale will appear on the PFD.
VS or Pitch Hold Mode ................................................. SELECT AS
REQUIRED
Use VS or pitch hold mode mode as required to fly the VNAV flight
path.
HEADING VECTORS
If the airplane is given heading vectors by ATC to the final approach
course, proceed as follows to manually activate the FMS approach:
HDG Mode (Flight Controller Panel)............................. SELECT
If frequency is not already tuned:
TUNE APPR (FMS Control Panel) .......................... PRESS
Navigation Frequency.............................................. SELECT
ACT APPR (FMS Control Panel).................................. PRESS
The MFD will display the final approach course data. The lateral
deviation scaling of 0.3 nm (full scale) displayed on PFD.
When established on an intercept heading and cleared for the
approach by the ATC:
NAV Mode (Flight Guidance Controller).................. SELECT
NOTE: Guidance is provided to the runway threshold or missed
approach point. It is the pilot’s responsibility to level out at the
Minimum Descent Altitude if the runway environment is not in
sight.
