Preflight and Flight Planning Pages
A/C STATUS Page
The top of the A/C STATUS page shows the flight crew the FMS parameters. The
model, engine type, and operating systems program numbers are displayed for
reference in 1L, 1R, and 2L. If a performance database is not available to support
the engine configuration, NO FMS SPD/PROF appears in 1L.
The effective database is changed by pushing 4L. A prompt will then appear in 4R
for confirmation. When confirmed, the effectivity periods change positions on the
page. Changing the navigation database effectivity is only possible during
preflight.
The performance factor in 6L allows entry of known percentage performance
deviation of the airframe engine combination from nominal. A positive
performance factor increases predicted fuel flow by the entered percentage.
The prompt in 6R provides access to the F-PLN INIT page, the first of three
initialization pages for entry of flight, performance, and fuel-related data.
NOTES: LSKs are labeled for reference only. On the aircraft they are not
labeled.
The FMS pages shown throughout this chapter are examples only.
Actual pages may differ depending upon actual aircraft situations,
engine type, and selected options.
All data on the A/C STATUS page should be reviewed for
applicability and date.
