36
What is the purpose of automatic LNAV activation?
To reduce pilot workload during a missed approach.
37
What happens when the TO/GA switch is pushed in the air during a missed approach?
LNAV automatically arms and activates as the roll mode.
38
What is the effect of a second push of the TO/GA switch on a missed approach?
Increases thrust to maximum go-around thrust and LNAV stays active.
39
Under what conditions does automatic LNAV activation occur?
When flaps are not UP, an instrument approach is loaded, and a TO/GA switch is pushed in the air.
40
What may cause confusion during simulator training regarding LNAV activation?
Pushing a TO/GA switch after takeoff with an approach loaded.
41
What happens if a TO/GA switch is pushed after takeoff and no course is available?

53
At what altitude does the premature thrust reduction occur according to the bulletin?
400 feet RA ## Footnote This altitude is critical for monitoring thrust settings during takeoff.
54
What flap setting should be set for thrust reduction when takeoff flap settings are greater than FLAPS 5?
Based on a height, not a flap setting. ## Footnote This adjustment is necessary to avoid premature thrust reduction.
55
Under what conditions do LNAV path deviations typically occur?
When waypoints on the SID are closer than approximately 10 nm and/or total course change exceeds approximately 120 degrees ## Footnote This often happens on SIDs with a downwind leg.
56
What is a common example of a SID that experiences LNAV path deviation?
The ATUDO SG RNAV SID for RWY13R at Abu Dhabi International Airport (OMAA) ## Footnote This SID features a 180-degree turn with waypoints less than 10 nm apart.
57
What does the flight management computer (FMC) use to generate the LNAV path?
The FMC creates a continuous flyable path that may differ from the published procedure ## Footnote This occurs when the calculated turn radius is too large to fit between waypoints.
58
What happens to the lateral path on the navigation display (ND) when using a continuous flyable path?
The path cuts corners or drifts outward as needed ## Footnote This adjustment maintains the continuous flyable path without discontinuities.
59
What factors determine the turn radius used by the FMC?
The VNAV predicted speed and a maximum 25-degree bank angle ## Footnote The radii of connected turns are based on the speed calculated at the end of those turns.
60
What happens when the speed window is opened and a lower speed is selected?
The path is not redrawn with smaller turn radii and follows a wide path with a shallower bank angle ## Footnote The ND refers to the Navigation Display, which shows the aircraft's path.
61
In LNAV, what does the airplane do?
The airplane always follows the path on the ND unless the pilot intervenes ## Footnote LNAV stands for lateral navigation.
62
How can a pilot ensure the FMC draws a complete series of connected turns?
By manually entering a lower climb speed on the CLB page or a waypoint speed constraint from earlier in the SID ## Footnote FMC stands for Flight Management Computer.
63
What can resolve earlier reports involving similar issues for STARs?
Adding speed constraints in the published STARs ## Footnote STAR stands for Standard Terminal Arrival Route.
64
What should be done if there are waypoints on a SID closer than approximately 10 nm?
Manually insert a lower climb speed on the VNAV CLB page or waypoint speed constraint on the LEGS page ## Footnote VNAV stands for vertical navigation.
65
What is the purpose of manually inserting a lower climb speed or waypoint speed constraint?
To allow the FMC to calculate a path with a smaller turn radius that complies with the SID ## Footnote This ensures that the aircraft adheres to the designed flight path and minimizes the risk of wide turns.
66
What action should be taken during initial climb if the path on the ND changes back and forth?
Delay flap retraction as necessary until the series of turns has been completed ## Footnote This helps maintain an adequate manoeuvring margin.
67

Changes to a random frequency or to the frequency used on the ground before flight ## Footnote This can lead to unexpected communication issues.
75
What issue has been reported with the transponder system?
Uncommanded transponder code changes ## Footnote This can affect flight identification and tracking.
76
What should the flight crew do if one or two TCPs are inoperative?
