Cruise Notes (not checklist)
TAKE-OFF
• Every 30 minutes, take a quick look at all the instrument displays to
CENTERED ON RUNWAY CHECK make sure they‘re properly functioning. In case the ND, EFB, CDU or
FBW malfunctions or hangs, hit their respective RESET buttons on the
CALL OUT 80 KNOTS CHECK panel on both sides of the touch screen CDUs.
V1 CHECK
• Check correct Mach Setting
VR ROTATE
• Make sure the fly-by-wire is engaged and bank-limit is set as required.
V2 CHECK Note that the fly-by-wire‘s flight envelope protection (alpha and bank)
POSITIVE CLIMB CHECK and auto-stabilization will be effective only when the autopilot is turned
off. This is so that it can‘t override the autopilot. Still, you are recom-
LANDING GEARS UP mended to keep the AP on throughout the flight and use the Fly-by--
wire to help you only during manual flight.
• Make sure the route is entered correctly in the route manager, and the
POST-TAKE-OFF route is valid. In case of an error, re-activate the route and use the
‚JUMP TO‘ function to jump to the waypoint.
AUTO-THROTTLE (>200 KIAS) ON
• Keep checking the fuel quantity against the Flight Fuel Planner
TAXI AND LANDING LIGHTS OFF on the EFB to make sure you have enough fuel for the flight.
FLAPS LEVER AS REQ.
• Make sure the window, engines and wing temperatures stay above
AUTOPILOT ON 0 to prevent ice buildup on them. If they drop below 0, turn on their
respective anti-icing/window-heating.
ROUTE MANAGER ACTIVE
• Check hydraulic pumps to make sure they‘re functioning properly. In
case of a hydraulic pump overheat or fault, turn them off, and turn on
an alternative pump. Also make sure both Air-Conditioning packs are
CLIMB-OUT on, trim air is on and equipment cooling is turned on. You can find the
Equipment Temperatures in the PNEU page on any of the MFDs.
<BELOW FL100
ENGINE INSTRUMENTS CHECK • In case the fuel quantity drops below the required fuel displayed, start
preparing for a diversion to your alternate airport. Also, reduce mach
HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS CHECK speed to 0.75 mach and if there‘s a fuel imbalance, enable cross-feed.
