1.1.2.3 Mutual Control

A. The mutual control is a safety factor, using CROSS CHECKS.

B. Control must be done by clear messages and information.

C. To allow an efficient cross check:
1. Each pilot should know the other crew member procedures.
2. The procedure should be entirely and accurately followed.

D. If an indication is not in compliance with the executed action, crew members must
check that the relevant system is correctly set and/or take any necessary action to
correct the situation.

E. Any pilot action, which modifies the flight parameters (flight path, speed or a
system status), should be announced by a pilot and cross-checked by the other
one (efficiency of cross check is necessary for the flight safety).

F. PNF can be shortly busy (ATC message, weather listening, operating manual
reading, procedure action, etc.) Any mode changed by the PF concerning ADU,
system or any noticeable items must be reported to the PNF when his attention is
again available.

1.1.2.4 Procedure Methodology

A. A procedure always precedes a check-list for the considered flight phase.

B. Procedures must be calmly done in a complete and precise way.

C. Every pilot has to know the procedure’s items of the other pilot.

D. Procedures are triggered by:

1. On ground:
a. Procedure is triggered by
i. CM1 or
ii. Specific flight event

2. In flight:
a. Procedure is triggered by
i. PF or
ii. Specific flight event

E. PF and PNF task sharing must comply with following orders and announcements:

REMARKS:

1. In some flight phases, the procedure achievement is triggered by events and is
automatically done in a chronological way.

2. It is not necessary to order the procedure because all the actions are already
achieved. PF will ask directly for the check-list.

3. Example:

a. After take-off, the procedure is triggered by the CLIMB SEQUENCE.
b. For approach phase, the procedure is triggered by the aircraft descending
through 10,000 feet.
c. Before landing, the procedure is triggered by the FLAPS SET FOR
LANDING

F. There are 2 ways to execute a procedure:

1. SCANS permits to check all P/Bs, switches and lights on the panel.

a. They are executed:
i. By memory
ii. Following a logical way (upward)

2. FLOWS permits to do some actions with a predetermined order.

a. They are executed:
i. By memory
ii. Following a specific order

*The flow is a reminder of the task sequence.

1.1.2.5 Checklist Methodology/ Challenge and Reply

A. CHALLENGE AND REPLY concept: PNF reads C/L, PF answers

B. Checklist use:

1. On ground

a. C/L is requested by CM1
b. C/L is read by CM2

2. In flight

a. C/L is requested by PF
b. C/L is read by PNF

C. PNF announces C/L title, reads the C/L, asking questions.

D. When C/L is completed, PNF announces “C/L complete”

E. The answer must be in compliance with the C/L and adapted with the present
situation.

F. The PNF must receive correct answer before reading the next item. If not, PNF has
to repeat the same item.

G. If checklist is interrupted, resume reading one step before last item.

H. PF and PNF task sharing must comply with the following orders and
announcement:

REMARKS:

1. In order to have a standard documentation to comply with all ATR series, some
C/L items in QRH are given in a general way and identified by “SET”

2. Example:
a. <<FLAPS………SET>> However, to resp ect proper crew coordination and
communication between, it is necessary to announce the exact/actual
value of the setting.
i. Example: <<FLAPS………15>

I. *OBSERVE means to determine actual conditions: example; “icing conditions” or
“normal conditions”.

J. Values or conditions have to be announced when necessary

K. Company Customized Normal Checklist

1. The revised ATR NORMAL CHECKLIST includes 13 phases. The BEFORE
PROPELLER ROTATION (BPR), BEFORE TAKEOFF, and AFTER
TAKEOFF checklists are divided into two sections: The "Down to the Line"
section, and the "Below the Line" section. This format is designed to help
Flight Deck Crew manage workload.

2. For example, the “BEFORE PROPELLER ROTATION- Down to the Line”
checklist may be called out, as soon as the Load/Trim Sheet is available and
takeoff data is set. On the other hand, the “BEFORE PROPELLER
ROTATION- Below the Line " checklist may be called out after all aircraft doors
are closed and start-up clearance obtained.

3. The PNF must announce checklist completion, e.g.” BEFORE PROPELLER
ROTATION COMPLETED", after reading and completing both “Down to the
Line” and “Below the Line” items of the relevant checklist.

4. The Pilot Flying (PF) requests the NORMAL CHECKLIST, and the Pilot Non
Flying (PNF) reads it.

5. The checklist actions are referred to as "challenge/response"-type actions. The
PF "responds" to the "challenge" only after checking the current status of the
aircraft.

6. If the configuration does not correspond to the checklist response, the PF must
take corrective action before "responding" to the "challenge". If corrective
action is not possible, then the PF must modify the response to reflect the real
situation (with a specific answer). When necessary, the other flight
crewmember must crosscheck the validity of the response. The challenger
(PNF) waits for a response before proceeding with the checklist.

7. The exception is the “AFTER LANDING” checklist; which is performed and
read “silently” by CM2.

8. For the checklist items that are identified; "AS REQUIRED” or “SET”, the
response should correspond to the real condition or configuration of the
system.

2.1.1 GROUND HANDLING / RAMP OPERATIONS SAFETY PROCEDURES

A. PURPOSE

1. To establish guidelines and procedures in order to ensure safe ramp operations and
servicing of ATR aircraft

B. SCOPE

1. This procedure shall apply to all activities related to ramp and servicing operations of
ATR aircraft.

C. DEFINITION OF TERMS

1. HOTEL Mode - exclusively used on the ground where the no. 2 (right) engine provides
aircraft autonomy in terms of air conditioning and DC power supply with the gas
generator operating and the propeller locked by a hydraulic brake.

2. Tail Prop/Stand – is a safety device/precaution installed in the rear of the aircraft
whenever the aircraft is on ground/under servicing to prevent aircraft damage in the event
of an aircraft nose up attitude on ground, that could occur in case of incorrect
implementation of loading/off-loading procedure of the ATR aircraft.

3. Free Fall – a condition where a certain body moves freely in the presence of gravity.

D. RESPONSIBILITIES

1. All personnel involved in ramp and servicing operations of ATR aircraft.


2.1.2 ARRIVAL PROCEDURE

2.1.2.1 Maintenance Personnel

A. The Ground Marshall shall guide the taxiing ATR aircraft towards the assigned
parking bay.

B. When the aircraft’s nose wheel is positioned on the assigned parking bay stop bar,
the Ground Marshall shall wait for the Captain’s signal that both engines are
shutdown or, in certain cases, number two engine will be in Hotel Mode with engine
number one shut down. The ATR 72-500 utilizes a PW 127M free spool turbine
engine, Therefore:

CAUTION


Even after engine shut down, propeller residual rotation may occur.
Exercise extreme caution when approaching the aircraft.



C. Always stay in the pilot’s field of vision when the aircraft engines are still
running/propeller blades still in motion.

D. Marshall shall then give the signal to the chock man to approach the aircraft and
install the chocks on the nose wheel by approaching the aircraft towards its nose.
As for the main wheel, approach the aircraft from its rear portion when installing the
main wheel chocks. Main wheel chocks must be attached to pull-ropes for easy
removal. Give the signal to the Captain once the chocks are already installed.

E. If a GPU is available upon arrival, Flight Deck Crew will initially configure engine
number two for Hotel Mode. GPU will then be connected to the aircraft once
number two propeller has ceased rotation. Engine number two will then be
consequently shut down once GPU is online.

F. If the tailwind component at the assigned parking bay is 10 knots or greater, Hotel
Mode is not an option due to possible engine nacelle overheat. Flight Deck Crew
shall shut down engine number two first. This will allow Ground Crew to approach
the right side of the aircraft and connect the GPU. Engine number one will be then
shut down once the GPU is on line.

G. The Marshall will signal ground personnel when it is safe to approach the aircraft:
propellers have stopped rotation and aircraft beacon light is “off”.

H. Secure aircraft propellers with its corresponding propeller straps only when the
engine is fully shut down and propeller rotation has stopped. Installation of
propeller straps is not recommended during QTA.

I. If the number two engine is to remain in Hotel Model (which should be confirmed
through verbal communication with the Flight Deck Crew), do not install propeller
straps.

J. Install warning signage (“Warning, Propeller Area”) at the aircraft propeller zone.

2.1.2.2 Ground/Ramp Personnel

A. Do not approach the aircraft until the cleared signal has been given by the Ground
Marshall.

B. Approach the aircraft Pax door from the left wing tip and walk aft of the wing
avoiding the area adjacent the Pax door. The Pax door is a “free fall” type. To avoid
injury, personnel should not position themselves directly under the door prior to
opening.

C. Ground/Ramp Personnel shall retrieve the Tail Prop/Stand from its compartment at
the tail section of the aircraft. Ground/Ramp Personnel shall give the Flight
Attendant a “Thumbs Up” signal once the Tail Prop/Stand is installed.

D. Ground/Ramp Personnel will install safety cones within the propeller area as well
as around the aircraft designated points.

(see attached diagram on page nos. 14 & 15 for reference).

E. Passengers must be escorted by the assigned Ground/Ramp Personnel from the
aircraft to the terminal at all times. At no time will a passenger be allowed to intrude
into the area restricted by the safety cones (wing/engine/propeller area).

F. Cargo/Baggage unloading sequence is “Rear Compartment First to Unload”.
Unloading of the rear compartment may be done simultaneously with the deplaning
of Pax.

G. Unloading of baggage at the forward compartment shall commence only after
completion of Pax deplaning and completion of rear cargo compartment unloading.
This ensures that the aircraft will not tip over (nose up) while parked.

H. The Tail Prop/Stand is only a safety device/precaution and should never be relied
on to prevent aircraft damage in the event on an aircraft nose up attitude on
ground.

(see Tail Prop/Stand illustration/picture at page no. 13)

2.1.2.3 Flight Deck Crew/ Cabin Crew

A. Flight Deck Crew will advise Cabin Crew if the number two engine will be operating
in “Hotel Mode” during Pax boarding/deplaning.

B. Flight Deck Crew will announce through the PA: “Doors may be opened” after the
seatbelt sign has been switched off. Cabin Crew may then open the Pax door.

C. Opening of the service door shall be advised by the Captain via PA.

D. The service door should not be opened if the aircraft is in Hotel Mode, without
permission from the Captain. The Captain shall determine and advise if prevailing
wind conditions permit (non-standard procedure).

E. Prior to deplaning Cabin Crew will advise passengers to comply with Ground/Ramp
Personnel instructions in order to avoid the aircraft restricted area (wing, engine,
and propeller).

F. After opening the Pax door, Cabin Crew will wait for the “Thumbs Up” signal from
the Ground/Ramp Personnel that the Tail Stand/Prop is installed.

G. Deplaning of Pax will only commence upon installation of Tail Stand/Prop and
safety cones. Cabin Crew shall control the deplaning of Pax.

Note: Maximum of 7 Pax shall be allowed to deplane at a given time.

2.1.3 AIRCRAFT SERVICING

A. All personnel working in and around the aircraft should always assume that the engine is
always running (hot area condition). Refer to page no. 9 for the aircraft exhaust temperature
contours.

B. When approaching the aircraft carrying long tool rods or other equipment, the equipment
must be positioned horizontally to avoid possible contact with blades.

C. Personnel should never walk or park equipment within the operating arc of a propeller. Avoid
the marked propeller area on the aircraft and zones isolated by safety cones

(see diagram on page no. 9).

motionless.

E. When working around an aircraft, be alert for protrusions that could cause injury, such as
antennas, pitot tubes, vortex generators and air-conditioning pack exhaust ports.

F. Place GSE outside the aircraft clearance zone equipment limit lines for ready access to the
aircraft only after the anti-collision beacon light is off.

G. Position GSE in an organized way so that all equipment has access to the aircraft.

H. Refueling truck shall be positioned parallel to the aircraft fuselage and outside the propeller
arc zone. In the case of a larger truck servicing the aircraft or fuel hoses are connected to the
equipment left side, positioning of fuel truck can be modified

(refer to diagram at page nos. 10 & 11 for reference).

2.1.4 DEPARTURE

2.1.4.1 Ground and Ramp Personnel

A. Cargo/Baggage loading sequence is “Forward Compartment First to Load”. After
loading of cargo/baggage in the forward compartment, Pax boarding may
commence with the necessary clearance already obtained from the Flight Deck
Crew. First to board shall be Pax seated on rows 1 and 2, to be followed by rows 3
and 4 and so forth (Only two rows at a time).

B. Catering Supplies and “Buy On Board Eats and Merchandise” may be loaded via
the service door or the Pax door. Galley loading/offloading may be done at anytime
while aircraft is on ground due to minimal weight of supplies and item.

C. Passengers must be escorted by the assigned Ground/Ramp Personnel to the
aircraft at all times

D. When all Pax are on board, loadsheet submission may be accomplished thru the
Cockpit Com Hatch, which is a small slot on the Captain’s side of the aircraft’s front
fuselage. It is advisable that Ground personnel wear a headset for direct
communication with the Captain when this method is employed.

E. After loadsheet submission/approval, the Load Controller/Ramp Agent shall signal
the clearing of equipment, personnel and safety cones.

F. Once all Pax on board, Ground/Ramp Personnel shall then remove the tail
prop/stand and stow it in the appropriate compartment at the aircraft’s tail section.

G. Ground/Ramp Personnel must ensure that after stowing the Tail Prop/Stand, that
the Tail Prop/Stand Compartment door is secured/latched. For departure, the
Ground/Ramp Personnel should give the “Thumbs Up” signal to the Cabin Crew
only if:
1. Tail Prop/Stand is removed
2. Tail Prop/Stand is properly stowed in its compartment.
3. Tail Prop/Stand compartment is closed and securely latched.

should not be allowed to depart. Safety First!

2.1.4.2 Flight Deck / Cabin Crew

A. Cabin Crew will request permission from the Captain to close the Pax/service door
(via interphone) only upon receiving confirmation from the Ground/Ramp Personnel
(Thumbs Up signal) that the Tail Prop/Stand is removed, properly stowed, and Tail
Prop/Stand compartment door properly secured/latched.

B. When ready to taxi, the Captain shall inform the headset man: “We have a good
start, disconnect everything and signal on my left/right side”.

2.1.4.3 Maintenance

A. Pushback

1. Once the tow tug has been connected to the aircraft, wheel chocks shall be
removed.
2. After the Flight Deck Crew has given the signal to commence pushback,
headset man/tow tug operator shall ensure all equipment servicing the aircraft
have cleared the area before initiating any movement.
3. During pushback operations, drive the tug at a walking pace and with the head
set man walking along the side of the tug (not riding above the tug).
4. After pushback, detached the tow bar from the nose gear first, then from the
tug.
5. Pushback personnel should be clear of the movement area before the aircraft
is marshaled for departure. The pushback person in charge then gives the “end
of guidance” hand signal and the “clear to taxi” salute.

B. Pushback with tailwind component at 10 knots or greater, aircraft not in Hotel Mode

1. If the GPU is connected, Flight Deck Crew shall request ramp/ground control if
they may start engine number one at the parking bay for operational
requirement. Ground idle power only.
2. If request is granted, after engine number one start, GPU may be disconnected
and push back commenced.
3. If request is not granted, pushback when clearance is obtained and start
engines on battery power.

C. Power Out

1. After closing of the cabin door, main wheel chocks shall be removed.
2. Headset man shall then give clearance to the Captain for engine start or
release of number two engine propeller brake and will wait for further

disconnect the headset and signal to the chock man to remove the nose wheel
chocks. After which shall proceed to about ten meters left-forward of the
aircraft and signal clear to taxi (ensure that the chock man is beside him and
holding/showing the chocks to the captain)

2.1.5 POSITIONING OF SAFETY CONES

A. When aircraft is on the ramp, safety cones must be positioned on the aircraft’s:

1. Propeller zone
2. Wing tips
3. Nose tip
4. Tail section

(see diagram on page nos. 15 for reference)

B. Depending on the availability of safety cones, cordoning the aircraft while on the ramp is also
recommended. (see diagram for reference on page no. 17)

2.1.6 RAMP OPERATIONS WITH EMPTY AIRCRAFT

A. A qualified maintenance person or pilot must be in the cockpit when moving an empty
aircraft.

B. Clearance, via radio, with the appropriate airport ground control and ground personnel, via
intercom, shall be secured before commencing any movement of the aircraft.

2.1.7 INCLEMENT WEATHER

A. The following guidelines must be observed in securing the aircraft during inclement weather
condition:

1. Park aircraft on a level surface and away from any unsecured equipment.
2. Install chocks on aircraft nose and main wheels
3. Secure the aircraft by fastening the mooring rope/chain to the ramp mooring/lashing point
and to the specified tie down point of the aircraft.

2.1.8 CONSERVATION OF AIRCRAFT BATTERY POWER

A. If the aircraft is not in “Hotel Mode” or GPU/External Power is not connected to the aircraft;
even with the BATT switch selected “OFF”; the following doors/panels consume a significant
amount of aircraft battery power via the Ground Handling Bus when left open for a prolonged
period of time:
1. Cargo Door Operating Panel
2. Refueling Panel
3. Main Passenger Door

B. All personnel should exercise good judgment in order to avoid aircraft batteries from

C. An aircraft with discharged batteries will be unable to start its engines even if GPU/External
Power is connected.

2.1.9 HOTEL MODE

A. Hotel Mode, available on the right hand/number two engine only, is exclusively used on the
ground to provide aircraft autonomy in terms of air conditioning and DC power supply with the
gas generator operating and the propeller locked by a hydraulic brake.

1. Aircraft refueling/de-fueling is prohibited during Hotel Mode operation.
2. No personnel may intrude into the right/number two engine/propeller area during Hotel
Mode operation.
3. One Flight Deck Crew Member should always be in his respective cockpit seat during
Hotel Mode Operation.

CAUTION: Hotel Mode should not be utilized if the aircraft’s Tail Wind Component is
10 knots or greater. It is the responsibility of the Flight Deck Crew to
always monitor outside meteorological conditions.

4. Power Levers shall be positioned only at the Ground Idle detent. Hotel Mode operation
with the RH Power Lever not at the Ground Idle detent position is prohibited.
5. Normally, the aircraft service door should be closed prior to starting engine number two in
Hotel Mode. If the cargo door is still open, the cabin access door and flight deck door
should be closed in order to aid in cabin/cockpit cooling.
6. Aircraft wheel chocks should be in place in case of propeller brake failure.
7. On arrival, if a GPU is available, Flight Deck Crew will initially configure engine number
two for Hotel Mode. GPU will then be connected to the aircraft once number two propeller
has ceased rotation. Engine number two will then be shut down once GPU is online.
8. On departure prior to push back or taxi out (power-out procedure), once the aircraft is in
Hotel Mode, Ground/Ramp Personnel should standby for the Flight Deck Crew command
to disconnect the GPU.
9. A tailwind component greater than 10 knots will result in a high probability of NAC
OVERHEAT. Also, anticipate possible tailwind component during pushback with turns. In
this case it would be wise to release the PROPELLER BRAKE prior to the turn.
10. For DEPARTING aircraft, if the tailwind component at the parking bay is 10 knots or
greater:
a. Obtain relevant clearance from ground control and /or ramp control for start up.
b. Advice ground mechanic/marshal that the start sequence will be ENGINE 1 first and
at the bay.
c. After ENGINE 1 start, have the GPU removed if connected.
d. Start ENGINE 2 with PROPELLER BRAKE OFF.

11. For ARRIVING aircraft, if the tailwind component at the parking bay is 10 knots or
greater:
a. Shut down sequence will be ENGINE 2 first.
b. PROPELLER BRAKE/HOTEL MODE use is forbidden.
c. At the parking bay, if available, wait for GPU to be connected prior to ENGINE 1 shut
down.

2.2.1 AFCS

2.2.1.1 ADU and EADI



A. Mode selection is achieved by acting on the corresponding P/B on the AFCS control
panel except for ALT SEL mode and GO AROUND mode.

B. Simultaneous armed modes are limited to one lateral mode and two vertical modes.

C. Therefore vertical armed modes are working in the following priority sequence:

1. ILS GS ARMED
2. ALT SEL ARMED

D. Any change on the ADU from an armed mode (white) to a capturing mode (star) or
from a capturing mode (star) to a captured mode (green) has to trigger a mutual
acknowledgement of the FMA (Flight Mode Annunciation) by the crew. PF
announces the new FMA and PNF confirms with a response of “Check”



E. In all situations, both CM’s must be aware of all selections or switching and maintain
situational awareness throughout the flights. It is mandatory that any selection made
on the ADU, course selector, heading bug, NAV or VHF or ADF frequencies,
DH,MDH be acknowledged by both CM’s

2.2.1.1.1 With FD and AP Engaged


A. All mode changes should be called out by the PF
e.g.

1. “GS star”
2. “VOR star”
3. “ALT white”
4. “LOC green”

B. PF may set AP by himself or ORDER TO PNF

C. AP engaged, PF acts on AFCS

D. Under normal circumstances; if the PF is flying the aircraft MANUALLY,
all selections on the AFCS/GNSS shall be done by the PNF

E. When AP is engaged, all track and navigation changes on AFCS are
performed by the PF with the following method:

1. When the PF has completed his action, he informs the PNF by using
the word <<SET>> at the end of his call out.
2. PNF checks the mode displayed on FMA and/or ADU and if correct
announces <<CHECK>>.

F. GENERAL PHILOSOPHY:

1. All “…SET” are done via ADU by PF if autopilot engaged, or PNF if
disengaged.
2. All “CHECK” are done via FMA. Any FMA status change has to be
announced by the PF.

G. If the PF has a heavy work load, he may request the setting of the
AFCS/GNSS from the PNF.

H. A climb or descend action must be done with whole following sequence:

1. Select Alt sel
2. Select and adjust vertical mode (usually IAS for climb and VS for
descent)
3. Adjust eventually Np and power.
4. Change altimeter barometric setting and compare
5. Select speed bug

I. IAS mode is normally used during climb (to avoid any stall due to high
altitude/low aircraft performance). Basic Pitch mode may be used in
turbulence and above 10,000 feet for passenger comfort and ease of in
flight services. Recommended pitch is 4 to 5 degrees. When using basic
pitch mode, a minimum speed should be set on the Speed Bug
depending on whether the aircraft is in “normal” or “icing conditions”,
High Bank/LNAV or Low Bank. For small level change during cruise with
high speed; VS mode may be used. During descent, VS mode is mainly
used except in emergency descent (refer to Emergency Descent
Procedure).

J. In case of simultaneous setting, only one announcement can be used.

K. ALT white appears only when a vertical mode is armed and the aircraft is
climbing or descending toward the preselected altitude.

L. When GA P/B is depressed, autopilot is automatically disconnected.

2.2.1.1.2 With FD only and AP Disengaged

A. AP disengaged, PNF acts on AFCS on PF request

B. All track and navigation changes on AFCS are performed by the PNF on
PF command.

C. PF flies the A/C and adjusts required power. All other selections or
switching in the cockpit are requested by PF and performed by PNF.

D. When AP is disengaged, heading and/or altitude ATC
instructions/clearances are commanded by the PF and set and
announced by the PNF. This ensures proper crosschecks. All flight
parameters (speed bug, altimeter setting) are set by both pilots after PF’s
request.

E. GENERAL PHILOSOPHY

1. PF orders the action by starting his sentence with the word “SET”
2. PNF informs PF after performing the action, concluding his sentence
by “SET”
3. PF announces “CHECK” after checking FMA and/or ADU

2.2.2 FLAPS OPERATION

A. For system use in normal operations, any setting change will be performed through mutual
control concept:

1. PF orders the system action

2. PNF performs the action and announces the configuration when setting is in compliance
with the system indicator

B. Flaps maneuvers are always performed by the PNF under PF order. PNF checks the speed
(by announcing “Speed Checked”) before each configuration change then performs the task
and announces the new configuration.

C. Select new speed only when the new configuration is obtained, during deceleration.


2.2.3 LANDING GEAR OPERATION



A. For system use in normal operations, any setting change will be performed through mutual
control concept:

1. PF orders the system action

2. PNF performs the action and announces the configuration when setting is in compliance
with the system indicator

B. Gear maneuvers are always performed by the PNF under PF order. PNF checks the speed
(by announcing “Speed Checked”) before each configuration change then performs the task
and announces the new configuration.

2.2.13 COMPANY DOCUMENTS

2.2.13.1 SOPs / Reminders

1. Log/Check in properly on your flight duty days on the check in sheet provided at
OCC.

2. Pilots on IOE/RQ should present their grade slips/IOE forms to their TRIs for
proper review/documentation prior to flight assignment.

3. Properly log aircraft discrepancies on the Maintenance Portion of the Aircraft
Tech Log

4. Properly complete the Aircraft Tech Log prior to terminating your flight. Write up all
delays with respective delay codes and remarks for further clarification. Determine
if delays require a separate Journey Report.

5. Completion of the Aircraft Tech Log is normally the duty of the First Officer but is
the responsibility of the Captain. All information entered should be COMPLETE and
ACCURATE

6. Flight Deck Crew should log only one “snag” per maintenance entry/sequence
number on the Aircraft Tech Log. Multiple “snags” on one sequence is not proper
and will cause difficulty in reckoning required maintenance action and rectification
interval.

7. Return aircraft charts/documentation to their proper place/sequence after use.
Advice the turn-around crew if certain charts are to be left out for their convenience
( example: RPLL/RPVM Approach Charts).

8. For ATR Flight Deck Crew operating out of Mactan, Cebu; to avoid late transmittal
of ATR AFL/Techlogs to OCC-Manila Flight Dispatch, Pilots are reminded to drop
by our remote flight dispatch office in Cebu station after flight duty. The Flight
Dispatcher / Station Officer will photocopy and send the AFL/Techlog to OCC-
Manila within the day. With this, we achieve an up-to-date daily operational
summary thru ARMS and fuel reports made by our Fuel Analysts. Include remarks
such as Route Qualification, IOE, License Check, etc. on the AFL/Techlog.

C. Usually performed by CM1 (or CM2 at CAPTAIN discretion), while other CM carries out
internal checks. Exterior inspection includes a check for obvious wear/ damage, especially of
following components:
1. Airframe
2. Propellers,
3. Engine in/outlets,
4. Main gear wheels, brakes and tires.
5. Tail bumper condition

D. A further task of this inspection is to provide a general overview of the condition and position
of the A/C before it is moved. The inspection should include technical/operational aspects
such as:

1. FOD danger at parking position
2. Obstructions within initial taxi area,
3. Progress of A/C servicing.

E. Finding of any leakage of A/C fluids should be reported to maintenance before the flight is
conducted. Particularly check toilet service panel and surrounding area for evidence of
leakage.

3.2.4 PRELIMINARY COCKPIT PREPARATION

A. The main approach is to extinguish all white lights, to test all systems and to prepare the
cockpit for flight.

B. As soon as you have an avail light for DC GPU, check the voltage on the left maintenance
panel. Then depressed in the GPU push-button, to do the preliminary cockpit preparation.

C. If external power is not available/ weak external Battery cart, Start in Hotel mode prior to
preliminary cockpit preparation, follow the chapter before taxi (refer to FCOM (2.03.06)
procedure for additional information)

D. With GPU available, Hotel Mode should only be started after the Preliminary Cockpit
Preparation has been done.

E. Recirc Fans “OFF” if ground air-conditioning to be used.

F. Weather Radar: ATR Pilots are reminded to set the aircraft weather radar to STBY on
ground. This is part of CM2 “Preliminary Cockpit Preparation” and “After Landing
Procedure/After Landing Checklist”

G. Radiation from aircraft weather radar poses a safety hazard to personnel and ground
equipment. Although the ATR weather radar system has a safety feature that prevents it from
being active on ground in WX mode, it is always safe practice to select it to STBY mode in
case this feature malfunctions.

H. ATC Recommendation: In case of dual installation (e.g. transponder, ignition, ADC switch), to
confirm the serviceability of both systems, standard procedure will be to select system 1 on
odd dates and system 2 on even dates.

3.2.5 FINAL COCKPIT PREPARATION

A. Take-off weight is set with the APM rotary selector. If the take-off weight is equal to the
previous take-off weight, it is important to move the rotary selector back to the 12 O’clock
position in order to reset the computer. Otherwise the computer may assume a wrong take-
off weight

B. The Departure Briefing will be accomplished at a convenient time before CM1 calls for Final
Cockpit Preparation Checklist. The briefing will be given by PF for each departure.

NOTE: The briefing should be practically orientated rather than a ritual liturgy. Reference
should be made to the appropriate FOS Data sheets for performance aspects,
including RTOW on any runway likely to be used and/or intersection departures etc.

C. Departure Briefing must cover:

1. Runway, wind and weather conditions(TAKE OFF DATA CARD);
2. Anti/de-icing procedure for departure (if necessary);
3. Selections of Nav aids, AFCS and use of Radar (If necessary).
4. Expected taxi procedure.

3.2.6 BEFORE PROPELLER ROTATION

A. During engine start, CL to FTR at 19 % NH ALWAYS. This procedure aims at lowering
temperatures in our engine “hot section” and preserving engine life.

B. All engine starts are to be performed with the respective bleed “OFF”. Respective Bleed to be
selected “ON” once engine start is “stabilized” at the CL “FTR” position.

C. Pushback Operations: In order to minimize stress on our tow tugs/bars and avoid untimely
disconnections; Pilots are advised to have only one propeller rotating in “feather” during
aircraft push back.

D. This would mean either releasing the Propeller Brake on Engine 2 during push back OR
starting Engine 1 prior to GPU disconnect (in case hotel mode cannot be utilized).

E. In no instance should two engines be running during aircraft push back.

F. Start of the other engine should commence only after aircraft push back is completed and
Parking Brake is set.

G. The Captain has to receive a cabin report from the CA1 prior to closing of the PAX door.
Cabin crew are instructed to confirm to the captain the total number of PAX, and request
permission to close the cabin door; through the interphone with the phrase “xxx passengers
on board, tail stand stowed, permission to close passenger door”.

H. Battery Starts

1. Due to “No DC GPU available” we are often required to perform battery starts and utilize
Hotel Mode to perform our “First Flight of the Day” pre-flight checks.

2. ATR FDC are reminded of the following operational considerations and constraints:

a. A proper pre-flight check is required prior to pax boarding.
b. To prevent unnecessary battery drain, the aircraft battery switch shall not be selected
“ON” unless FDC is ready to start the respective engine in Hotel Mode.
c. Respective Bleed Valve to be selected “OFF” to minimize starting ITT.
d. Respect 10 knots max tailwind component for Hotel Mode. If unable, Hotel Mode is
not permitted and a DC GPU is required to perform a standard pre-flight check.
Consider aircraft repositioning if possible.
e. Aircraft fuelling must be completed prior to Hotel Mode.
f. Service door must be closed. Aft cargo compartment loading may be accomplished
through the pax door.
g. Refer to FCOM 1.16.20, 2.01.04, 2.03.06, 2.05.02, and QRH 2.06 for ATR SOP.

I. Engine Start Select: “A+B” for battery starts and the first start of the day, then for the next
start, “A” for odd days and “B” for even days, to detect ignition system hidden failure.
J. Engine 2 start in Hotel mode is decided in accordance with operational requirements and
limitations. It is the Captains decision; at the very least the PRELIMINARY COCKPIT
PREPARATION PROCEDURE for sh ort or long transit shall be completed and shall be
completed and the weather recorded and checked.

3.2.9 BEFORE TAKEOFF

A. Advisories to Cabin Crew prior to Take Off:

1. A “Cabin Crew prepare for departure” announcement on the aircraft PA should be
accomplished by CM2 prior to take off. This should be done after the Cabin Crew Safety
Demo, which can be monitored via the PA volume knob on the communications panel.
Cabin Crew will then advise Flight Deck Crew: “Cabin ready” via interphone. No “Cabin
Ready”, no Take-off.
2. A “two chimes” advisory via recycling (off+on) of the seat belt sign should be
accomplished by CM2 once take off is imminent. DO NOT give a “two chimes” signal or
takeoff unless Cabin Crew has reported “Cabin Ready”.

B. ND Settings Prior To Departure

1. Prior to departure, pilots should set their ND (NAVIGATIONAL DISPLAY) to ARC mode.
This is required to display either RDR or TERR on ND. Normally, the PF should select
RDR on ND for proper WX monitoring. To maximize available information resources,
PNF should select TERR on ND for proper terrain monitoring. Selection of WX Radar
“ON” should be at CM1 discretion.

C. “Bleeds Off” for ALL take-offs

A. Above 10,000 both CM1 and CM2 should select RDR on ND. WX Radar as required.

B. The Seat Belt Sign is normally switched “off” (departure) or “on” (arrival) at 10,000 feet.

C. SPEED BUGS,when climbing @ 5 degrees pitch up climb (basic pitch mode), should be set
appropriately. When in HI BANK or LNAV, speed bug should be set to either WB+10 or
RB+10 depending on outside conditions (Normal/Icing). When using WB or RB as speed
reference, LO BANK should be used. This ensures speed protection in varying flight
conditions.

3.2.16 DESCENT AND 10,000 FT APPROACH PROCEDURE

A. The Seat Belt Sign is normally switched “off” (departure) or “on” (arrival) at 10,000 feet.
Approach Checklist during descent passing 10,000 feet

B. Below 10,000 feet, in the event that CM1 prefers to select a non-standard ND mode; CM2
should select a different mode. Bellow 10,000 feet, one crew member should preferably be
on RDR and the other on TERR.

C. Flight Deck Crew announcement “Cabin crew, prepare for arrival” will be done right after
switching on the seatbelt sign when descending thru 10,000 ft. It will signal the CA1 to start
the arrival announcement and cabin prepar ation. This will prevent inadvertent
turbulence/WX announcements by the cabin crew when the seatbelt sign is switched on.

D. A Minimum Descent Floor (MDF) of GRID MORA “plus 500 feet” shall be established in all
VFR AIRPORTS. The “plus 500 feet” serves as an additional safety margin to the GRID
MORA.

ALL VFR FLIGHTS MUST BE CONDUCTED IN VMC

3.2.17.1 Precision Approach (ILS)

A. On instrument approaches, misapproach acceleration altitude is 500 feet above
published minimums/DA. 1000 feet AGL minimum.

B. When runway in sight, PF announces “LANDING”. Continue with applicable
instrument call outs, this will serve as “Subtle” Pilot Incapacitation Checks.

C. Flight Directors/AFCS modes will remain “ON” throughout the approach until the
landing roll out.

D. Deviation and limits

1. HEIGHT
general ±100 Ft
beginning of go-around ±50 Ft
at decision height 0 Ft

2. TRACKING
on radial ±5°
precision approach half deviation of LOC and GS,
according to altitude

3. SPEED
both engines +5 Kt/ -0 Kt
one engine +10 Kt/ -0 Kt


4. Aircraft handling when performing a precision approach manually
LOCALIZER Corrections must be done inside the heading
bug
GLIDE SLOPE Pitch variations should not exceed ±2°


5. PNF calls for any deviation:
“SPEED” if +10/ -0 Kt deviation exceeded
“GLIDE SLOPE” if ½ dot deviation exceeded
“LOCALIZER” if ½ dot deviation exceeded

6. PF answer is:
“CORRECTING” (and performs correction)

3.2.20 LANDING

A. The ATR 72-500 is vulnerable to Tail Strikes and proper aircraft pitch must be observed,
especially during landing (preferably 5 degrees max). A call out of “PITCH” shall be
announced by the PNF anytime if during the final approach / flare, aircraft pitch reaches +5
degrees.

B. Tail Strike with just “minor” scratches should not be taken for granted. These occurrences
should be properly noted in the Aircraft Technical Logbook by Flight Deck Crew.

C. Use of “Reverse Power” when landing on long runways is not recommended; unless there
is a safety concern, or in case of an emergency/abnormal situation.






FLI GHT
EVENTS
PNF PF












NOTE: Use reverse to full stop only in cases of emergency. It is recommended to
return to GI position prior to reaching 40 Kts to avoid flight control column
shaking/inadvertent PITCH DISCONNECT.

3.2.22 AFTER LANDING

A. For runways with an exit/high speed taxi way, the after landing procedure/checklist shall be
accomplished upon leaving the active runway.

B. For runways that require a 180 degree turn for taxi to the ramp, the after landing
procedure/checklist may be accomplished after the completion of the 180 degree turn.
Pilot’s discretion is advised. The after landing procedure/checklist may be delayed until the
runway is vacated if safety is an issue.

C. After landing, strictly observe two (2) minutes minimum time prior to selecting CL to FTR
and thirty (30) seconds at FTR prior to CL FUEL S.O.

D. ATR Pilots are reminded to set the aircraft weather radar to STBY on ground. This is part of
“After Landing Procedure/After Landing Checklist”

E. Radiation from aircraft weather radar poses a safety hazard to personnel and ground
equipment. Although the ATR weather radar system has a safety feature that prevents it
from being active on ground in WX mode, it is always safe practice to select it to STBY
mode in case this feature malfunctions.

4.1.1 GENERAL

A. Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System is used for detecting and tracking aircraft in the
vicinity of your own aircraft. By interrogating their transponder, it analyzes the replies to
determine range, bearing, and if reporting altitude, the relative altitude of the intruder. When
the TCAS processor determines that a possible collision hazard exists, it issues visual and
audio advisories to the crew for appropriate vertical avoidance maneuvers.

B. TCAS is unable to detect any intruding aircraft without an operating transponder or in
case of transponder failure.

C. TCAS should be set to “ABV” on climb, “___”/Normal on cruise and “BLW” during descents.
Range selections at pilots’ discretion. In case of TCAS resolution, ATC is not responsible of
aircraft separation until resuming the initial clearance.

D. All information and data given in the following parts are specific to TCAS II version 7.0

E. There are two types of cockpit displays:

1. Traffic Advisory (TA)
2. Resolution Advisory (RA)

4.1.2 DEFINITIONS

4.1.2.1 Traffic Advisory

A. The goal of a Traffic Advisory is to inform the pilot of any surrounding traffic. The
crew should attempt to gain visual contact with the intruder and assess the
potential collision risk. The TA display shows the intruding aircraft’s relative position
and altitude with the trend arrow to indicate if it is climbing descending at greater
than 500 feet per minute. The TA display identifies the relative threat of each
intruder by using various symbols and colors and provides appropriate synthesized
voice announcements.
1. “Non-threat traffic” advisory (TA)
Information about any non-threatening traffics in the vicinity.

Symbol used:


2. “Proximity intruder traffic” advisory (TA)
Information about any traffic in the proximity.

Symbol used:

3. Information about intruding aircraft considered potentially hazardous. TCAS will
display a TA, when time CPA (Closest point of approach) is between 20 and 48
seconds with aural alert “TRAFFIC, TRAFFIC”. This alert has to make pilots
look at the screen in order to determine visually the position of the intruder.
Symbol used: + <<TRAFFIC, TRAFFIC>>

4.1.2.2 Resolution Advisory

A. The Resolution advisory is an appropriate vertical avoidance maneuver. The RA
display is incorporated into the vertical speed indicator RA/ VSI. By illuminating red
and green areas around the dial it displays the required rate, or limitation of climb
or descent to avoid a possible collision.

B. Some of the typical Resolution Advisories, which are shown on the RA/ VSI, will
require a maneuver by the crew while others will warm against maneuvering.

C. Resolution advisories are grouped as Corrective advisories or preventive
advisories. Corrective Advisories require a positive action by the crew
accompanied by a green arc on the RA/ VSI showing “Fly To” guidance. Preventive
Advisories require that NO action be taken to alter the flight path of the aircraft.

Symbol used: + <<CORRECTIVE ACTION TO DO>>

D. With the resolution advisory, the TCAS triggers an aural synthesized voice alert
describing the avoidance maneuver required at the same time.

Original Date Issued: 17 March 2010

NOTE: The TCAS II processor is programmed with the specific aircraft operating limitations, i.e.,
maximum altitude at which the aircraft can climb at 1500 ft/min. Climb or Increase Climb RAs
are therefore inhibited when the RA maneuver cannot be completed safely due to lack of
aircraft performance capability. These performance limits are included as part of the aircraft
wiring. See the AFM (Airplane Flight Manual) for the specific performance limitations for ATR.

4.1.3 PROCEDURES

4.1.3.1 Traffic Advisory


FLI GHT
EVENTS
PNF PF












CAUTION: At this step, the crew should take no evasive actions based solely on
the TCAS II display.

NOTE: A traffic advisory may become a resolution advisory within 15 seconds. If
the intruder is Non-Altitude Reporting (NAR) the traffic symbol appears
without an altitude number or trend arrow. The type of symbol selected by
TCAS II is based on the intruder location and closing rate.

If TCAS direction finding techniques fail to locate the azimuth of another
aircraft, a NO BEARING message appears on the screen.

4.1.3.2 Resolution Advisory

A. In case of RA, PF must maneuver the aircraft promptly and smoothly in
response to the resolution advisory. A typical TCAS II maneuver requires crew
response within 5 seconds and G-forces of +/- 0.25G. Because of this G-force
requirement, the response to the RA cannot be flown using the autopilot. The
autopilot must be disconnected before responding to the RA.

CAUTION:
1. Do not follow the flight director and do not change the altitude selected on
AFCS.
2. Do not over react to a resolution advisory.
3. Two TCAS II equipped aircraft will coordinate their resolution advisories using
a Mode S transponder air-to-air data link. The coordination ensures that
complementary advisories are issued in each aircraft.
4. Since maneuvers are coordinated, the crew should never maneuver in the
opposite direction of the advisory. Fly only the vertical speed commanded.

NOTE: The TCAS installation needs to be wired to give EGPWS higher priority
than TCAS. In case of simultaneous audio alarms, the TCAS II system is
placed in TA ONLY mode (aural annunciations are inhibited) and the TA/
VSI and RA/ VSI flag will show RA OFF.

4.2.1 POLICY

A. DATA Card will be prepared by PNF and handed over to PF for cross checking along with the
RTOW. PF should cross check the DATA card with GNSS (V-NAV page);

B. PF should program GNSS as per the Flight Plan (Route 1 to destination airport and route 2 at
pilot’s discretion). For flight time more than 1:15 hrs, carry out Active Route Integrity Check
and destination RAIM Check.

C. Flight Deck Crew is responsible for checking/cross checking user waypoints and saved
routes entered into the GNSS.

1. LNAV is not to be used beyond a user created Final Approach Fix

2. Prior to the Departure Briefing, it is mandatory that Flight Deck Crew check/cross check
saved routes that they load and always compare GNSS Track Distance against Flight
Plan Distance for proper flight management

3. RTE 1 should always be the active route and properly checked and briefed by the PF.
The PNF should cross check all data entered in the GNSS.

4. RTE 2 on the GNSS may be used to prepare for a turn around route, diversion to an
alternate airport, arrival runway changes, or a re-land.

5. Reference to AFM 2.05.12. 3(b) “Traditional navigation equipment must be selected to
available aids so as to allow immediate cross-checking or reversion in the event of loss of
GPS navigation capability.” Preferably PF to select RNAV and PNF at V/L

4.2.2 ON GROUND

A. IDENT page must be displayed. If not, press DATA, then IDENT.

B. GNSS is filled by PF, according to data known (runway in use, cruise flight level, SID, ……...)
or expected.

C. PNF must crosscheck the LEGS and PERF INIT pages during the PF departure briefing.

D. Conventional radio navigation means have to be set for stand-by use, to assure safe flight
path in case of GNSS failure.

43. Navigational Display (ND) Range Management:

a. The ND should display at least the first waypoint of the active flight plan.

b. If the distance to the first waypoint is quite far, be careful if WX or TERR is a factor.
You may have to scan lower ranges to get a better picture of WX/TERR threats.

c. Do not get into the habit of displaying all waypoints of the active route on the ND.
This will decrease situational awareness of imminent WX and TERR information on
ND. If you wish to check flight plan waypoints, use the LEGS page on the GNSS.

d. For VFR airports with no nearby or onsite classic navigational aids for cross
check, both PF and PNF may select RNAV on their EFIS/ND. Take note that this is
only for reference and is not to be used as a primary means for navigation.

4.2.3 IN FLIGHT

A. PF manages GNSS with PNF crosscheck when autopilot is engaged.

B. Below 10,000 FEET, GNSS is may be managed by PNF on PF orders.

C. Any modification of flight path (horizontal or vertical) has to be clearly announced

Original Date Issued: 17 March 2010


4.3.1 GENERAL

A. Navigation is not to be predicated on the use of the terrain display (TERR on ND).

B. The Terrain Display is intended to serve as a situational awareness tool only. It does not
have the integrity, accuracy or fidelity on which to solely bases decisions for terrain or
obstacle avoidance.

C. To avoid giving nuisance alerts, the predictive TAWS functions must be inhibited when
landing at an airport that is not included in the airport database.

4.3.2 EGPWS WARNING

A. No pilot engaged in passenger transport deliberately enters a situation which may put his
passengers, his aircraft, his crew and himself in danger. Activation of EGPWS warnings is
therefore an illogical situation to a pilot more or less consciously concentrating on safe flight.
Analysis of crashes ( voice recorders from aircraft flying into terrain) tell us that the pilots
involved did not believe in warning, and that some pilots, as a consequence of their disbelief,
entered a state of inability to take the proper action.

B. When flying under daylight VMC conditions, should a warning threshold be deliberately
exceeded or encountered due to known specific terrain at certain locations, the warning may
be regarded as Cautionary and the approach may be continued.

C. A go-around shall be initiated in any case if the following warning appears and cause of
warning cannot be identified immediately.

“WHOOP- WHOOP PULL UP”
“TERRAIN TERRAIN”
“TOO LOW TERRAIN”

A/P --------------------------------------------------------OFF
POWER ------------------------------------ GO AROUND
Rotate to achieve maximum possible rate of climb.

When flight path is safe and GPWS warning ceases:
Decrease pitch attitude and accelerate.

When speed above minimum required and V/S positive:
Clean up aircraft as necessary.
CALL ATC, Recheck navigation, evaluate situation.

“SINK RATE”
Adjust pitch attitude and power to silence the warning.

“DON’T SINK”
Adjust pitch attitude and power to maintain level or climbing flight.

“TOO LOW GEAR” – “TOO LOW FLAPS ”
Correct the configuration or perform a go-around.

4.4.1 GENERAL
 
A. DUE TO “NO DC GPU AVAILABLE” WE AR E OFTEN REQUIRED TO PERFORM BATTERY
STARTS AND UTILIZE HOTEL MODE TO PERFO RM OUR “FIRST FLIGHT OF THE DAY”
PRE-FLIGHT CHECKS.

B. ATR FDC ARE REMINDED OF THE FO LLOWING OPERATI ONAL CONSIDERATIONS
AND CONSTRAINTS:

1. A proper pre-flight check is required prior to pax boarding.
2. To prevent unnecessary battery drain, the aircraft battery switch shall not be selected
“ON” unless FDC is ready to start the respective engine in Hotel Mode.
3. Respective Bleed Valve to be selected “OFF” to minimize starting ITT.
4. Respect 10 knots max tailwind component for Hotel Mode. If unable, Hotel Mode is not
permitted and a DC GPU is required to perform a standard pre-flight check.
5. Aircraft fuelling must be completed prior to Hotel Mode.
6. Service door must be closed. Aft cargo compartment loading may be accomplished
through the pax door.
7. Power Levers shall be set to the Ground Idle detent only.
8. Refer to FCOM 1.16.20, 2.01.04, 2.03.06, 2.05.02, and QRH 2.06 for ATR SOP

C. The following is the procedure in order to properly differentiate how much fuel our ATR
aircraft burn in flight and during Hotel Mode.

1. This procedure is to be utilized only during turn around flights where the aircraft remains
in Hotel Mode after parking.
2. After parking note total fuel used and RESET both fuel used counters.
3. Prior to releasing Propeller Brake, note fuel used on #2 engine during Hotel Mode and
log fuel used on the “HMODE ABOVE G.I.” (title to be revised later) column on the Tech
Log.
4. RESET #2 fuel used counter

D. Please exercise proper judgment when utilizing HOTEL MODE at T3.

1. When MNL RWY 24 is in use, there is a high probability that we will experience a tailwind
component greater than 10 knots with a corresponding NAC OVERHEAT alert.
2. The tailwind effect is more prevalent when the aircraft is parked at the remote parking
bays (stand 121 and beyond).
3. Also, anticipate possible tailwind component during pushback with turns. In this case it
would be wise to release the PROPELLER BRAKE prior to the turn.
4. For DEPARTING aircraft, if the tailwind component at the parking bay is 10 knots or
greater:

a. If aircraft will be pushed back, obtain clearance from Ground Control and T3 Ramp
Control to: “start ENGINE 1 at parking bay, idle power due operational requirement”.
b. If aircraft is to taxi out, start engine 1 first. Engine 2 will be started without Prop Brake
after GPU disconnect.
c. Advice ground mechanic/marshal that the start sequence will be ENGINE 1 first and
at the bay.

4.5.1 ICING CONDITIONS

(To be issued)

4.5.2 OPERATIONS ON WET AND CONTAMINATED RUNWAYS

(To be issued)

4.5.3 WINDY CONDITIONS

A. Some specific configuration may be concerned by wind effect:

1. Crosswind and tailwind limitation
2. Final approach speed and wind factor
3. CAT 2 maximum wind
4. Aircraft position on stand
5. Taxiing with strong wind
6. Hotel mode
7. Tail wind taxiing
8. Nacelle overheat
9. Elevator jam
10. Pitch disconnect
11. Aileron jam
12. Spoiler jam

B. See FCOM 2.02.08


4.5.3.1 Windshear

A. Any abrupt change in wind speed or direction is defined as Wind Shear. The low
level wind shears occurring below 500 feet are very serious safety hazards, on
account of little time and height available to realize the danger, to recover and take
corrective steps.

B. Identification of Wind Shear

1. Wind shear may be identified by means of:
2. When unusual control forces are required
3. When significant air speed changes occur
4. Unusual vertical speed changes
5. Changes in pitch attitude
6. Large displacement from glide slope
7. Requirement of unusual power lever application

C. Crew Action

1. The best wind shear procedure is avoidance. Flight crew should search for
clues to the presence of wind shear along the intended flight path. These
include pilot report, Low Level Wind Shear Alerting System (LLWAS),
thunderstorm, inversion layer etc.

2. Prevention

a. If practical use the longest suitable runway
b. Use the speeds for maximum allowable takeoff weight
c. Do not follow FD for takeoff for suspected wind shear; the attitude indicator
is the primary reference for pitch attitude.

3. Recognize the indications of potential wind shear and then:

AVOID AVOID AVOID

4. The key to recovery from wind shear is to fly the aircraft so that it is capable of
a climb gradient greater than the wind shear indicated loss of performance.
Normally, the standard wind/gust correction factor will provide a sufficient
margin of climb performance. If a shear is encountered that jeopardizes safety,
initiate a go-around. If the sink rate is arrested, continue with the procedure for
microburst.

4.5.3.2 Microburst

A. If a microburst is encountered, the first indication will be a rapid increase in the rate
of descent accompanied by a rapid drop below glide path (visual or electronic).

1. Initiate normal go-around procedures (10 pitch).
2. Do not raise the gear until a climb is established.
3. If the aircraft is not climbing, smoothly increase pitch until a climb is
established, or stall warning is encountered. If stall warning is encountered,
decrease pitch sufficiently to come out of the stall warning envelope.
4. When positively climbing at a safe altitude, retract the gear and complete the
go around manoeuvre.

B. NOTE:

1. Pitch attitudes above 20 degrees may be necessary to attain stick shaker
depending on weight and conditions.

2. The positive rate of climb should be verified on at least two (2) instruments.
Leave the gear down until you have this climb indication as it will absorb some
energy on impact should the microburst exceed your capability to climb. PNF
have to announce the negative vertical speed value.

3. If a decision is made to rotate to the shaker, extreme care should be
exercised so as not to over-rotate beyond this point, as the aircraft is
only a small percentage above the stall when the aural warning / shaker
activates

4.5.5 STANDARD INSTRUMENT DEPARTURE PROCEDURES

A. Standard Instrument Departure (SID) “FOR HIGH PERFORMANCE AIRCRAFT” shall NOT
be used on ATR aircraft.

B. Likewise, the use of MCT in all phases of flight is forbidden except in Abnormal/Emergency
situations.

C. SID minimum speed shall be white bug + 10 / red bug + 10 depending whether normal or
icing conditions exist.

4.5.6 REVERSE POWER

A. The use of reverse power during taxi is prohibited, except in Abnormal/Emergency situations.

B. For landings on “long” runways (non-Captains’ runways), the use of reverse power is
discouraged except in Abnormal/Emergency situations.

4.5.7 CARBON BRAKES

A. Overview

1. ATR aircraft are equipped with the latest carbon brake technology. These consist of
carbon disc running on carbon disc, Wear characteristics are very different to those of
steel brakes.

2. Carbon brakes are more efficient when at their working temperature.
a. Level of energy input has very little impact on the overall wear rate.
b. Amount of wear during each landing is extremely low irrespective of energy input and
significantly lower than for steel brakes.
c. Carbon brakes have a potential to achieve a very high number of landings.

4. Most significant effect on wear rate for carbon brake is the number of brake
applications during the taxi sequence (snubs). Greatest effect when the brake is
cold (taxi out).
5. Consequently any achievable reduction in the number of brake applications during taxi
would result in a significant increase in brake life

6. If the number of applications during taxi can be kept to a minimum then an optimum
brake life may be achieved.

B. Operating Procedures

1. Avoid snubbing brakes on taxi more than is necessary.
2. Avoid riding of brakes.
3. Use steady but positive braking to reduce taxi speed.
4. Do not rest feet on the brake pedal. This will induce a system pressure increase and
consequently, unnecessary brake wear.

5. Anticipate traffic density, surface slope, and speed during taxi to keep braking
requirements to a minimum.
6. Do not steer the aircraft using the brakes.
7. Avoid inching the aircraft forward whilst holding against the engines (Caticlan static take
off procedures). Static take-off is used only in CATICLAN. This is due to deletion of the
14M Alignment allowance for TODA/TORA in the relevant FOS chart. In ALL other
runways, the 14M Alignment allowance for TODA/TORA is included; hence there is no
requirement for a static take off.
8. Protect carbon brakes from de-icers (runway and aircraft).
9. Protect carbon brake from aircraft cleaning agents.

4.5.8 180 DEGREE RUNWAY TURNS

A. For a 180 degree turn on the runway, the following procedure is recommended:

1. CM1 shall taxi slightly on the right hand side of the runway and turn LEFT to establish a
25 degree divergence from the runway axis using the ND as reference with a ground
speed between 5kt to 8kt.

2. When CM1 assesses the aircraft nose to be over the runway edge, smoothly initiate a full
deflection turn to the RIGHT.

3. Asymmetric power may be used to assist the turn.

A. Caticlan Airport Special Procedures are to be applied only in Caticlan. For other airports,
normal procedures apply.

B. Caticlan is a Captains’ runway

C. Prior to departure from Manila; check Caticlan runway condition and determine limitation at
landing at Caticlan and this weight will determine limitation at take off from Manila.

D. En route/approach, if runway conditions change, determine new landing limitation and divert
if necessary.

E. ATR Flight Deck Crew are instructed to contact Company Caticlan Station on 131.5 MHZ at
30 to 20 nm inbound. Information to be relayed is latest ETA and turn-around flight
FOB.This information will be used to anticipate the possibility of off-loading or accepting
“slide-up” passengers and expedite turn-arounds.

F. KLO is the primary alternate airport, ILO is secondary. Flight Plan is computed for the further
alternate, which is ILO.

G. In case of a flight diversion, the PIC shall advice passengers upon arrival at the alternate
airport that our airport ground staff shall look into their needs. The decision to
disembark/board passengers shall be the responsibility of the Company Airport Station
Manager. DO NOT announce free transfers, free ground transportation, free meals, etc. This
decision is the responsibility of the Company Airport Station Manager. Coordinate with
Company Airport Station Manager/IOCC regarding your flight release. ATR Flight Deck Crew
are also reminded to contact our Company Caticlan Station for any flight diversion to
alternate.

4.6.1.1 Arrival

A. During approach, both CL 100% Override after selection of Flaps 30.

B. CM2 radio altimeter call outs of “80, 50, 30, 20, 10” feet during landing.

C. CM2 additional call out of “idle gate” after touchdown

unless other

C. Crew should check distribution of passengers and weight in cargo holds.

D. Caticlan RWY 06 Take off FOS charts always utilizes RTO. RWY 24 has a FOS
option for normal take off power.

E. For departure, runway alignment during takeoff should be at a minimum.
Powerback maneuver is forbidden due FOD risk.

F. During takeoff, brake release should occur when RTO torque is achieved.

G. Selected IAS on takeoff / initial climb is V2. Follow Flight Directors.

H. At acceleration altitude, climb sequence using RTO is identical to a Go Around
procedure. PL to the notch prior to selection of “CLB” on Power Management (to
avoid over torque), then select Bleeds “ON”.

4.6.1.5 VFR Airports / Caticlan Traffic Speed Control

A. The following procedures are to be used in Caticlan and other VFR airports where
traffic congestion exists.

B. All distances to MPH will be reckoned via GNSS/GPS distance to “CT” NDB for
uniformity.

C. For distance reckoning of other VFR airports:

1. Use the primary available NAVAID if available (example: for RPUY; use CUY
VOR)
2. If no NAVAID available, use the ICAO identifier for GNSS/GPS distance
reckoning.

D. Incase of traffic congestion, Strict Speed Control will be implemented with the
following constraints.
1. 30 NM at speed of 230 KIAS / knots indicated airspeed
2. 20 NM at speed of 210 KIAS / knots indicated airspeed
3. 10 NM at speed of 180 KIAS / knots indicated airspeed
4. Traffic pattern/downwind speed of White Bug + 10 / knots indicated airspeed

E. Absolutely NO OVERTAKING at 30NM to destination . In the event of
simultaneous arrivals, the aircraft with a higher VMO will be given priority. Observe
proper airmanship and courtesy.

F. For Caticlan, the Number One arriving aircraft will have no speed constraints
(SPEED IS YOURS) and endeavor to maintain HIGH SPEED/VMO until 7NM CT
NDB (northern tip of Boracay) prior to deceleration and directly join the respective
base leg of the runway in use (subject to ATC). Deceleration may be performed
earlier if there are safety issues involved such as WX/turbulence, a high landing
weight which will compromise deceleration, or as instructed by ATC.

G. Transponders should always be selected “ON” for proper TCAS monitoring.

H. Arriving Aircraft should plan to be at 3000 feet at 10 NM CT NDB if VFR
conditions permit.

I. Departing aircraft should expedite climb to cross 10 NM out at 4000 feet or
above to avoid incoming traffic.

4.6.2 RTO (RESERVE TAKOEFF) POWER

A. The Pratt & Whitney 127M is certified for 2750 SHP max take off rating. RTO power is
available by positioning the PLs to the “ramp” (go around) position. Extreme caution is
advised so as not to go beyond the “ramp” position. Such action will cause the engines to
operate beyond safe limits.

B. The “Climb Sequence” of an RTO take off is identical to a “go around” maneuver. The PLs
are required to be retarded to the “notch” (normal take off detent) prior to selecting “CLB” on
the Power Management selector.

4.6.3 POWERBACK PROCEDURES

A. Ground Requirements:

1. A minimum of four (4) ground Marshalls are required.

2. A Marshall shall be situated directly in front of the cockpit to guide CM1, at each wing tip,
and the aircraft’s tail.

B. Procedure:

1. Aircraft should have both engines running. Single engine powerback is prohibited.

2. CM1 should exercise extreme caution when applying reverse power. Power application
should be smooth and at the minimum required for aircraft movement.

3. Powerback taxi speed should be the slowest possible. Both pilots shall have both their
feet on the floor during powerback operations.

4. Brakes shall not be used to stop the aircraft during a powerback maneuver. Ground
idle or careful application of forward power shall be used to arrest powerback speed and
stop the aircraft.

5. The PIC has the right to refuse a powerback maneuver if his judgment perceives a safety
concern.

4.6.4 WHITE / RED BUG + 10 CLIMB

A. FOR OBSTACLE CLEARANCE ON DEPARTURE:

1. Busuanga Airport normal departure procedure is to maintain climb speed of WHITE BUG
+ 10 until passing 3000 ft QNH.

2. San Jose airport normal departure procedure is to maintain climb speed of WHITE BUG
+ 10 until passing 9000 ft QNH.

3. In the unlikely event that icing conditions below 10,000 ft. is experienced, minimum speed
will be the standard RED BUG + 10 for HIGH BANK / RED BUG for LOW BANK.

B. Subject to captains’ discretion; this procedure may be used for other airports than require a
steep departure gradient.

BELT SIGN ON all the way. This is due to the very short flight time of these sectors.

B. For these flights, in order to inform the Cabin Crew of “Sterile Cockpit” termination and
commencement, Flight Deck Crew will “recycle” the Seat Belt Sign (two chimes) passing
10,000 ft; during climb, and announce “Cabin Crew prepare for arrival” on descent.

C. All other flights will employ standard procedure. Flight Deck Crew signal of “two chimes” for
take-off and landing imminent will still be accomplished.

altitude plus 200 ft. In the absence of an AIP published traffic altitude, default is 1500 ft.
AGL.
3. The existence of a weather system shall be defined by IOCC. In case a WX system
affects the destination airport and the initial reported WX info received states
"VFR Suspended”, two consecutive WX reports that indicate "VFR Normal" at half hour
intervals must be received prior to release of the flight.
4. A WX report with remarks "CB ALQUADS" is a no-dispatch.
5. The "NO WX, NO BOARDING" policy should be strictly implemented.

4.6.9.2 Normal Procedures

A. Instrument Approach Interception Technique

1. Precision Approach:
a. Establish IAS < 180 KIAS and Flaps 15 setting before reaching one dot
below the glide slope.

2. Non-precision Approach:
a. Establish IAS < 180 KIAS and Flaps 15 setting 4nm prior to the Final
Approach Fix (FAF)

B. Visual Approach Technique

1. Final approach shall be commenced at 2000 feet AGL.

2. At 1000 feet AGL, aircraft must be:
a. Established on the final approach.
b. In full landing configuration (gear down and lock, flaps 30 selected and
indicated)
c. Both CL to 100% override
d. STEEP APP pushbutton activated
e. Before Landing Checklist completed

C. Final Approach

1. Set both CL to 100% override
2. Activate STEEP APP pushbutton

D. Flight Techniques

1. The 6 degree approach slope does not require exceptional skill. However the
landing flare has to be initiated earlier and may require a larger than usual
elevator deflection.

2. Landing distance is not affected. However an OVERSPEED will result in a
penalty regarding actual landing distance, thus reducing safety margins. An
UNDERSPEED, on the other hand, may result in a stall during the landing
flare. Speed reduction is greater during the flare from a steep approach
compared to a traditional one.

3. A considerable high rate of descent during a steep approach compared to a
traditional one will result in a lower power setting. If the aircraft speed gets too
high, “flight idle” may be the only way to reduce airspeed. This is undesirable
and may occur if a tailwind component exists during the approach. Hence the 5
knot maximum tailwind limitation. If airspeed gets low, thrust is almost
immediately available synchronized with power lever movement.

4. Short/Close in approaches are prohibited. The captain shall ensure that the
aircraft is on a stabilized approach at 1000 feet AGL and in full landing
configuration.

5. Standard company call outs apply. Keep in mind that certain GPWS features
are inhibited during a Steep Slope approach. CM2 shall alert CM1 of any flight
path deviations and observe that corrections are made immediately.

6. Aircraft touchdown shall be firm. Any attempt to make a “smooth landing” will
increase landing distance and reduce safety margins.

7. An optimum deceleration technique shall be applied as soon as possible after
touchdown. Any attempt to delay or “ensure passenger comfort” may
jeopardize safety margins.

8. There is no difference between a traditional and Steep Slope approach go-
around maneuver.

E. GNSS Guidance (No PAPI Approach)

1. In the event that PAPI is not available for a RPVE RWY 24 Steep Slope
Approach, GNSS guidance shall be used.

2. A Final Approach Fix will be entered on the “legs” page with coordinates of
CT066/4 with an altitude constraint of 2000’.

3. CM1 shall select RNAV on EFIS and monitor VDEV on PFD.

4. CM2 shall monitor the following:

a. Radio altimeter
b. GNSS VNAV page parameters for required and actual Vertical Speed.
c. GNSS VNAV page for required and actual FPA/VB

F. Flight Deck Crew Training

1. Flight Simulator Training.

a. Four (4) Steep Slope Approaches shall be conducted to a full stop landing.
b. Two (2) go-around maneuvers from a Steep Slope Approach shall be
conducted.

2. Flight Phase Training:

a. Prior to actual operations into airport runways that require a Steep Slope
approach, Captains must complete Steep Slope approach Flight Phase
training (Touch and Go maneuvers) that simulate actual steep slope
approaches.
b. Six (6) simulated steep slope approaches shall be performed.
c. Of this six (6) simulated steep slope approaches:

i. Three (3) Touch and go maneuvers.
ii. One (1) go-around maneuver.
iii. Two (2) Full stop landings at max reverse power and short field braking
technique.

7.1.1.3 Flight Path Management

A. Captain may decide to change Pilot Flying, (in case of TCAS procedure for
instance)and announce “I HAVE CONTROL” or “YOU HAVE CONTROL”.

B. PF may decide to transfer flight controls to PNF in certain circumstances (elevator
control jammed for instance), in that case PF will announce “YOU HAVE
CONTROL” and check control transfer. PNF will announce “I HAVE CONTROL”.

C. Task Sharing Policy

1. On ground: Captain is PF for any action, except engine start which is
performed by CM2.

2. In flight: Following emergency or abnormal event, PF assess the situation
and then suggest a decision, validated by Captain.

7.1.2 COCKPIT PHILOSOPHY

A. To achieve aircraft systems monitoring, the information of any failure or abnormal/
emergency situation has to be clearly notified to the crew. To reach this goal, ATR’s
philosophy is based on two main principles:

B. Dark Cockpit Philosophy

1. In normal operation, all the lights are extinguished (except blue or green lights for
transient phases).

NO LIGHTS = normal operation

2. Lights Philosophy:
a. Dark (no lights) - normal operation
b. Amber - caution
c. Red - emergency
d. White - System is OFF
e. Blue - status (switched temporary ON by crew)
f. Green - backup (switched temporary ON by system)

C. Detection Sequence
1. In case of system failure, information is provided to the crew:

a. Crew information – PNF call “Warning/ Caution”,
i. Master “WARNING” light + CRC (Continuous Repetitive Chime) or;
ii. Master “CAUTION” light + SC (Single Chime)

b. System Identification – PNF call “XXXX (System) on CAP”
i. CAP

c. Isolation – PNF call “XXXX (System) fault”
i. Local Alert

7.4.1 PHILOSOPHY

A. Never Hurry

Take time to analyze the situation before acting!

B. Check System (analyze of failure)

1. Four checks have to be undertaken for failure confirmation. They are triggered by PF,
and made by PNF:

a. Control : system command in a logical position? Reset?
b. Supply : supply source(s) available?
c. Circuit breakers : C/B pop out?
d. Lighting : bulb(s), digit(s) working?

C. Reset Policy

1. At PF discretion, one reset of a push button of a failed system, associated with an amber
caution, may be performed by selecting system related push button OFF for 3 seconds
and then ON.

2. Exceptions: LEAKS, LO LEVEL, EEC/ECU, PEC, BUS

C. Circuit Breaker Policy

1. In flight, a pilot should re-engage a tripped circuit breaker only if it is judged necessary for
the safe continuation of the flight. In this case only one reengagement should be
attempted and then recorded in maintenance logbook.

2. On ground, a pilot may re-engage a tripped circuit breaker provided the action is
coordinated with the maintenance team.

D. Checklist Priority

1. While performing a failure procedure, the crew will respect checklist priority:

a. Emergency
b. Normal
c. Abnormal
d. Sequence

F. Sum Up – Decision – Information

1. Sum Up

a. Once the checklist completed, PF sums up situation by taking into account the
three following aspects: T-O-C
b. Technical assessment: consider consequences of a failure on systems (fuel,
electricity, hydraulic, air, conditioning) (helped by pressing RCL push button).
c. Operational assessment: consider the possibility to land at destination or at alternate
according to the failure (i.e.: anti-icing system degraded and icing conditions reported
at destination).
d. Commercial assessment: consider pass engers or crew casualties (e.g.:
depressurization) and also in case of diversion, capacity to bring back passengers to
destination airport (train, bus…), according to operator’s policy.

2. Decision

a. After performing the assessment, PF is able to suggest a decision, validated by
Captain.
b. CREW MUST ASSESS BEFORE DECISION.

3. Information

a. PF an PNF plan together the consequences of failure(S) encountered.
b. Then PNF informs:
i. ATC
ii. Cabin crew
iii. Passengers
iv. OCC/Airline Flight Operations

7.5.1 WAKE TURBULENCES

A. Wake Turbulence is the leading cause of airplane upsets. The phenomenon that creates
wake turbulence results from the forces that lift airplanes. High-pressure air from the lower
surface of the wings flows around the wingtips to the lower pressure region above the wings.
Pair of counter-rotating vortices are thus shed from the wings: the right wing vortex rotates
counterclockwise, and the left wing vortex rotates clockwise. The region of rotating air behind
the airplane is where wake turbulence occurs. The strength of the turbulence is determined
predominantly by weight, wingspan, and speed of the airplane. Generally, vortices descend
at an initial rate of about 300 to 500 ft/min for about 30sec. The descent rate decreases and
eventually approaches zero between 500 and 900 ft below the flight path. Flying at or above
the flight path provides the best method for avoidance. Maintaining a vertical separation of at
least 1000-ft when crossing below the preceding aircraft may be considered safe.

B. An encounter with wake turbulence usually results in induced rolling or pitch moments;
however, in rare instances an encounter could cause structural damage to the airplane. In
more than one instance, pilots have described an encounter to be like “hitting a wall”. The
dynamic forces of the vortex can exceed the roll or pitch capability of the airplane to
overcome these forces. During test programs, the wake was approached from all directions
to evaluate the effect of encounter direction on response. One item was common to all
encounters: without a concerted effort by the pilot to check the wake, the airplane would be
expelled from the wake and an airplane upset could occur

C. Take off and Landing:

1. Turbulence encountered during approach or take off may be due to wake turbulence.
2. ATR is classified in Medium category Aircraft ( 7T < MTOW < 136T )
3. Aircraft turbulence categories and wake turbulence separation minima are defined (ICAO
Doc. 4444) as follows:

ATR BEHIND… APPROACH TAKE OFF
… LIGHT/ MEDIUM 3NM (2.5NM according ATC)
… HEAVY (> 136T) 4NM
Expect Time Separation:
2 to 3 minutes
According ICAO DOC 4444

7.5.2 WIND SHEAR

A. Description

1. This phenomenon may be defined as a notable change in wind direction and/or speed
over a short distance.
2. Windshear can be encountered in the vicinity of thunderstorms, into rain showers (even
without thunderstorms), during a frontal passage or on airports situated near large areas
of water (sea breeze fronts)
3. Severe windshear encountered above 1000 feet, whilst unpleasant, can generally be
negotiated safely. However it is encountered below 500 feet on take off or approach/
landing it is potentially dangerous.
4. As far as possible this phenomenon must be avoided.

B. Procedures

1. Windshear recovery procedure at takeoff:

a. Delay the takeoff. If a low-level windshear is reported, calculate VR, V2 at the
maximum takeoff weight available for the day.
b. If windshear is experienced, do not change the configuration until safe speed and
altitude are reached regardless of FD indication, increase pitch to 10°
c. When clear of obstacles, accelerate as much as possible and clean up the aircraft.
d. Climb at the normal climb speed.

2. Procedure during an approach if a windshear is encountered:

a. Initiate a normal go around procedure then increase to 10° pitch, regardless FD
indication.
b. Be aware of stick pusher
c. Do not retract LDG Gear.
d. When positively climbing at a safe altitude, retract the gear and complete the normal
go around procedure

3. Caution:

a. Positive rate of climb must be verified on at least two instruments: both speed and
vertical speed must be checked increasing for more than 5 seconds.

C. Comments

1. Ten degrees pitch attitude is the best compromise, making it to ensure a climbing slope
while respecting acceptable High value of AOA. If necessary, Max power (PL to ramp
position) or Emer power (PL to wall position) will be used with a smooth pitch increase, at
the limit of stick shaker activation.

2. Leaving the gear down until the climb is established will allow to absorb some energy
impact, should the microburst exceeds the aircraft capability to climb.

NOTE: This procedure covers only the initial recovery.


A. Stall Recovery Procedure From Clean Configuration

1. Stall recovery was practiced in the simulator with autopilot ON in clean and
landing configuration.
2. The reason for this is that the autopilot will trim the aircraft nose up, so the
recovery demands a firm push on the control wheel.
3. The autopilot disengages when the stickpusher is activated.

PF PNF
Stick shaker
activation:
Take flight controls and push
control wheel forward.

<<Climb sequence>>

Perform climb sequence

B. Stall Recovery Procedure From Landing Configuration

1. If the aircraft is in landing configuration, it is important to keep the flaps in present
position until the aircraft has accelerated to VGA (Yellow Bug).
2. Then retract flaps one notch.
3. If flaps are retracted at a speed below VGA, there will be a risk of a secondary
stall.
4. The rest of the procedure is equal to a go-around.

7.5.3.2 Bounce Landing

A. Bounce landing may result from either too much speed or too high slope on final.
Decide GO-AROUND if plane not stabilized (flight path, aircraft configuration,
speed) at 500ft. In case of bounce, NEVER push forward control column nor
select Ground Idle on PLs, DO NOT try to land, PERFORM a go-around
immediately:

1. GA pitch
2. Set power
3. Flaps ONE NOTCH, when speed> Vga

7.5.3.3 Hazardous Positions

A. These flight maneuvers, are the best procedures in case of hazardous positions
(extreme bank angle or extreme pitch attitudes).

B. Such situations rarely occur, but may be encountered by flying into a large aircraft’s
wake vortex, a rotor downwind of a mountain range, severe turbulence or
mechanical failure, etc…

1. Nose up
a. Cues:
i. Steep nose up (+ high bank angle or not)
ii. Speed reducing rapidly

b. Recovery procedure:
i. Simultaneously: max Power let nose lower (follow eyebrow if appears)
ii. With nose below horizon:
AA. Roll out
BB. Stop descent
CC. Adjust power

7.5.4 CREW MEMBER INCAPACITATION

A. General

1. Crew member incapacitation is defined as any condition which affects the health of a
crew member during the flight phase and which decreases his skill for the assigned
Tasks.

2. Incapacitation is a real air safety hazard, which occurs more frequently than many of the
other emergencies, which are the subject of routing training. Incapacitation can occur in
many forms varying from obvious sudden death to subtle, partial loss of function. It
occurs in all age groups and during all phases of flight and may not be preceded by any
warning.

B. Recognition

1. The critical operational problem is early recognition of the incapacitation. The keys for
immediate recognition of incapacitation are:

a. Routine monitoring and cross-checking of flight instruments, particularly during critical
phases of flight, such as takeoff, climb out, decent, approach, landing and go around.
b. If a crew member does not respond appropriately to two verbal communications, or
c. If a crew member does not respond to a verbal communication associated with a
significant deviation from a standard flight profile.

2. Other symptoms of the beginning of an active incapacitation are:

a. Incoherent speech
b. Strange behavior
c. Irregular breathing
d. Pale fixed facial expression
e. Jerky motions that are either delayed or too rapid
f. If a crew feels sick, he must transfer the flying task.

3. Action:

1. The recovery from a detected incapacitation of the handling pilot shall follow the
following sequence:

a. Flight:
i. The remaining pilot must assume control and resume the aircraft to a safe
flight path, and announce “I have control”. (use Autopilot and headset as
much as possible)

b. Incapacitation:
i. The healthy pilot must ensure that the incapacitated pilot cannot interfere
with the aircraft control.
ii. He must call cabin crew to secure/lock the sick pilot on his flight crew seat.
iii. If the cockpit door is locked, the assisting cabin crew will apply the relevant
procedure to unlock the system, and provide first aid.

c. Organization and Communication:
i. The pilot flying must land as soon as possible on an adequate airport (priority
landing/medical emergency) and request medical assistance in flight in order
to prepare medical assistance on ground:
ii. “MAYDAY, MAYDAY, MAYDAY, (C ALL SIGN) EXPERIENCING CREW
INCAPACITATION, REQUEST MEDICAL ASSISTANCE ON LANDING”.

7.5.5 RUDDER USE

A. General

1. On February 8
th
, 2002, the National Bureau of Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), in
co-operation with the French “Bur eau Enquêtes Analyse” (BEA), issued
recommendations for aircraft manufacturers to re-emphasize the structural certification
requirements of the rudder and vertical stabilizer, showing some maneuvers which can
result in exceeding design limits and even lead to structural failures.

2. In this perspective, new amendment to AFM & FCOM states:
CAUTION: “Rapidly alternating large pedal applications in combination with large
sideslip angles may result in structural failure at any speed”

B. Rudder Design Functions

1. The Rudder May Be Used:

a. In normal operations, for directional control:
i. During the takeoff roll, when on ground, especially in crosswind conditions.
ii. During the landing flare with crosswind, for decrab maneuver
iii. During the landing roll, when on ground
iv. The rudder may be used as deemed necessary, for turn co-ordination to prevent
excessive sideslip.

b. In some other abnormal situations:
i. Full rudder deflection can be used to offset the yawing moment of an asymmetric
thrust.
ii. Runaway rudder trims: the rudder pedals may be used to move the rudder to the
neutral position.
iii. Aileron jam: the rudder may be used to smoothly control the roll.
iv. Landing with unsafe indication: the rudder may be used to establish sideslip in an
attempt to lock the landing gear down by aerodynamic side forces.
v. Landing gear not locked down: the rudder can be used for directional control on
the ground.

c. For here above maneuvers, proper usage will not affect the aircraft structural
integrity.

2. The Rudder Must Not Be Used:
a. To include roll, except for aileron jam
b. To counteract turbulence

7.5.6 EGPWS WARNING

A. A pilot should never fly in a situation which may put his passengers, his aircraft and himself in
danger. Activation of EGPWS is therefore a crucial alarm regarding flight safety.

B. Analysis of some crashes shows that pilots involved did not believe in EGPWS warning and
as a consequence of their disbelief, entered a state of inability to take proper action.

C. When flying under daylight VMC conditions, a warning threshold may be deliberately
exceeded due to a well knowledge of the present terrain; the warning may be regarded as a
caution and the approach may be continued.

D. A go around shall be initiated if the cause of the warning cannot be identified immediately.
