OPERATOR’S MANUAL
CMA-9000 FLIGHT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
NOTE: When stringing a SID procedure to an Enroute Transition or Enroute segment at their common
waypoint, if speed and/or altitude constraints exist for this waypoint in both procedures, the constraint(s)
from the SID procedure are retained.
The SID altitude/airspeed constraint(s) will probably be lower/slower than the Enroute Transition or
Enroute constraints.
CAUTION: During Standard Instrument Departures, the FMS does not support the low speed flight regime of
aircraft in which the bank angle is limited by the autopilot to 15 degrees as a function of airspeed and
aircraft flap/slat configuration. Where required by the magnitude of the track angle change, the FMS
may use up to a maximum of 25 degree bank angle in computing the roll steering command to the
autopilot. Crews should therefore exercise caution when engaging LNAV in this flight regime and may
wish to use the heading select mode until sufficient airspeed is allowing bank angles larger than 15
degrees. No difficulties are anticipated for engaging LNAV when track angle changes are less than 15
degrees.
SID SELECTION WHILE IN FLIGHT
The FMS allows the activation in flight of an inactive route containing a SID, subject to the selection of the
inactive runway.
The FMS prefixes an inactive SID sequence with the corresponding inactive runway waypoint on activation in
flight.
CONDENSED SID AND SID TRANSITION PROCESS
This section provides an overview of the process of selecting the SID and SID transition procedures. The intent
of each step is summarized on the next page.
1. MOD, ACT ROUTE - Select departure/arrival index page.
2. DEP/ARR INDEX - Select departure.
3. DEPARTURES - Select SID, SID transition,and/or runway.
4. MOD, ACT LEGS - Confirm the SID, SID transition and/or runway procedure agrees with the clearance,
then execute the modified route.
A detailed description of each FMS page is contained in Appendix A.
