PMDG 737NGX 0.00.91
TUTORIAL #2
For Simulator Use Only DO NOT DUPLICATE 27FEB15 RTM
Shortly after passing EH008, the aircraft levels out at FL060 to meet the
restriction at IVLUT.
Notice the green 225 degree radial line coming off of the PAM VOR. This
combined with the reading from the ADF is our second sanity check on
the departure. We should be starting our turn toward IVLUT after crossing
the PAM R-225 and we’ll join the course line defined by the 253 bearing
to the Schiphol (NV) NDB, which we can see on the standby RMI. Both of
these match up as we pass them, so we know the FMC’s position is
correct.
After passing EH026, let’s demonstrate the other feature of the ALT INTV
button that was talked about but not used in Tutorial #1.
What would normally happen here even if we rolled the MCP ALTITUDE
up to a higher level is that the plane would remain level in VNAV PTH
until it passed IVLUT, at which point it would automatically resume the
climb.
Now, pretend traffic is light and ATC just gave us a climb clearance that
eliminates the restriction at IVLUT.
“Precision 738, climb and maintain flight level 230.”
Roll the MCP ALTITUDE window up to 23000
