TUTORIAL #2
27FEB15 RTM DO NOT DUPLICATE For Simulator Use Only
Set it to 989 feet, which is our engine out acceleration height.
(this accounts for EHAM’s Runway 24 being -11 feet MSL) This
will give us a visual representation of that altitude along the
speedtape.
We don’t need the FPV or METERS switches today, so we’ll
ignore these items.
Verify that the BARO selector is set to HPA.
o Set the local altimeter setting – if you’re flying without
weather, it’s the standard pressure of 1013. You can
press the B key as a shortcut to set this to whatever the
pressure actually is in the sim at the time if you are using.
Set the left navaid pointer switch to VOR 1 and the right one to
VOR 2.
This enables a virtual RMI on the ND that shows us radial and
DME information for both VORs. You’ll see the SPL and PAM
VOR names and DME information in the lower corners of the ND
in green. The two VORs are also drawn geographically on the
map with radial lines corresponding to their respective MCP
COURSE settings.
Verify the ND is in MAP mode.
Verify the ND range is 10nm.
Press the TFC button so that we have TCAS traffic displayed.
Move over to the Mode Control Panel (MCP) next.
Set the captain’s side (VOR 1) course to 106.
Set the first officer’s side (VOR 2) course to 225.
These are the VOR radials that will serve as a check for us
during the departure procedure.
Turn on the captain’s flight director (FD), followed by the first
officer’s.
