Introduction Transition to new B737 SOP New nomenclature – PF/PM
New areas of responsibility New panel scan flow New flight deck task distribution New checklists New flight deck preparation Slide 6

Transition to new B737 SOP  Introduction  New nomenclature PF/PM The nomenclature PF/PNF has been changed to PF/PM (Pilot Monitoring) to more clearly define and emphasize on the role of the non-flying pilot.

Transition to new B737 SOP Changeover in Nomenclature :
 Introduction  New nomenclature PF/PM Changeover in Nomenclature : The changeover in nomenclature CAPT-FO to PF-PM occurs on GND when the airplane starts moving under its own power. After landing the changeover from PF-PM back to CAPT-FO occurs when the airplane stops moving and engines are shutdown. In some companies, the nomenclature CAPT-FO is replaced by LHSP-RHSP Transfer of Flight Controls : If the airplane is equipped with dual nose wheel steering, there will not be any transfer of Flight Controls. The Captain or FO being PF will have control during all ground and flight operation. If the airplane is not equipped with dual nose wheel steering and the FO is pilot flying, the CAPT will temporarily be PF on GND ; Flight Controls will be transferred to the FO during Takeoff and back to the CAPT at the end of the Landing roll-out. Slide 8

Landing Taxi Shutdown Changeover in nomenclature CAPT-FO PF-PM CAPT-FO Changeover in nomenclature (company option) LH-RHSP PF-PM LH-RHSP Transfer of Flight Controls – CAPT is PF LHSP is PF (no transfer) Transfer of Flight Controls – FO is PF – airplane with dual nose wheel steering RHSP is PF (no transfer) Transfer of Flight Controls – FO is PF – airplane with single nose wheel steering LHSP is PF RHSP is PF LHSP is PF Slide 9

Transition to new B737 SOP  Introduction  New areas of responsibility In the past the captain as PF was also monitoring airplane systems. To increase safety, airplane systems are now monitored by the PM. This resulted in new areas of responsibility as follows : On GND (aircraft not moving under it own power) : the CAPT is responsible for controlling and navigating the airplane the FO is responsible for all other airplane systems On GND (aircraft moving under its own power) and in FLT : the PF is responsible for controlling and navigating the airplane the PM is responsible for all other airplane systems both pilots are responsible for engine control and indication Slide 10

Transition to new B737 SOP New areas of responsibility : On GND
 Introduction  New areas of responsibility White area = RHSP all other airplane systems White area = RHSP – F/O Grey area = LHSP items related to controlling and navigating the airplane Grey area = LHSP - Capt New areas of responsibility : On GND Old areas of responsibility

Transition to new B737 SOP  Introduction  New areas of responsibility Grey area = LHSP is PF items related to controlling and navigating the airplane White area = RHSP is PM all other airplane systems Orange area = Both pilots engine thrust and indications including fire detection New areas of responsibility : In FLT - LHSP is PF

Transition to new B737 SOP  Introduction  New areas of responsibility White area = LHSP is PM all other airplane systems Grey area = RHSP is PF items related to controlling and navigating the airplane Notice that the FO as PF must insert QNH and hPa “Hg on the Standby Altimeter ! Orange area = Both pilots engine thrust and indications including fire detection The FO as PF must also arm the Speedbrake Lever on final approach ! New areas of responsibility : In FLT - RHSP is PF

Transition to new B737 SOP  Introduction  New checklists Checklists have been given a tighter focus by eliminating several items. These items still need to be accomplished in the normal procedures ! Checklists contain minimum items needed to operate the airplane safely. Normal checklists contain items that meet any of the following criteria: • items essential to safety of flight that are not monitored by an alerting system • items essential to safety of flight that are monitored by an alerting system, but if not done, would likely result in a catastrophic event if the related alerting system fails • items that the FAA requires in the checklist • items needed to maintain fleet commonality between the 737, , 757, , and 777 • items that enhance safety of flight and are not monitored by an alerting system • during shutdown and secure, items that could result in injury to personnel or damage to equipment if not done.

Transition to new B737 SOP Captain - LHSP First Officer - RHSP
 Introduction  new flight deck preparation Since FMC [perfo data] entry is not completed, the N1% and Bleed configuration are unknown during the Takeoff Briefing. If the Loadsheet is already on board, the Takeoff Briefing and FMC [perfo data] entry can be swapped. If the Loadsheet is not yet available, accomplish the Takeoff Briefing and review the missing perfo data later-on !

Preliminary Preflight
Transition to new B737 SOP Preliminary Preflight New preliminary flight-deck checks New exterior inspection route Slide 17

for preliminary preflight
Transition to new B737 SOP  Preliminary Preflight  New preliminary flight deck checks X X X The following items are removed from the preliminary preflight setup : Flight Recorder test - Mach Airspeed test - Stall Warning test refer to FCOM and OM for preliminary preflight procedures Slide 18

Transition to new B737 SOP  Preliminary Preflight  New preliminary flight deck checks The Overheat/Fire Protection Panel test is suspended from the Preliminary Preflight setup and has been moved to the FO (RHSP) Preflight setup ! These items need only be checked after crew change or maintenance action. Slide 19

Transition to new B737 SOP  Preliminary Preflight  New exterior inspection route Old exterior inspection was organized system by system without regard to the location of the items to be checked New exterior inspection allows items to be checked in order of their physical location Items at each location can be checked in any sequence at pilots discretion The new exterior inspection shows a detailed inspection route Slide 20

Preflight Transition to new B737 SOP New panel scan flow
New flight deck setup New flight instrument crosscheck Slide 21

Transition to new B737 SOP  Preflight  New panel scan flow Grey area = LHSP items related to controlling and navigating the airplane White area = RHSP all other airplane systems Do not forget to reset FUEL USED from previous flight The Overheat/Fire Protection Panel is checked when starting the APU. If APU start is postponed, you may also delay the panel check During pre- & post-flight, the Aileron and Rudder Trim are within the F/O (RHSP) area of responsibility, while this panel goes to the PF at changeover. During pre- & post-flight, the complete Control Stand is within the Capt (LHSP) area of responsibility, while the Control Stand is divided in 2 areas at changeover to PF/PM ! Aileron and Rudder Trim system check (free movement) has moved to the Before Start phase. The scan flow on GND during pre-flight and post-flight has been changed according to the new areas of responsibility.

for preflight procedures
Transition to new B737 SOP  Preflight  New flight deck setup Although not a Boeing SOP, check proper operation of the FUEL CROSSFEED VALVE. An inoperative Fuel Crossfeed Valve results in a NOGO ! (The Fuel X-feed Valve is not mentioned in the MEL, thus being a NOGO. MEL 28-5 applies to the BLUE x-feed light only !) The SPEED TRIM amber light remains illuminated until IRS-1 (CL) ADIRU-1 (NG) is aligned. As a general rule, start APU at STD-5’. Reasons to delay APU start : - APU cycle life time - Fuel savings - Noise abatement Reasons to advance APU start : - Passenger comfort - Duct Pressure for coffee (CL) Check proper operation of TR1-2-3: TR1 and TR2 load should indicate : - (CL) slight positive - (NG) circa AMPS TR3 load should indicate : - (CL) almost zero - (NG) circa AMPS Higher load on TR3 may indicate TR1-2 failure, which is a NOGO (MEL 24-6) Caution when selecting Parking Brake ; check for sufficient accumulator pressure since Hydraulic pumps are OFF ! X X refer to FCOM and OMB for preflight procedures The LHSP will setup the MCP and the Control Stand The RHSP will setup all systems on the Forward Overhead Panel and Aft Electronic Panel

Transition to new B737 SOP  Engine Start  New task distribution The logic behind this is that each pilot operates the switch within his/her area of responsibility The RHSP will select the Engine Start switch to GRD, while the LHSP will position the Engine Start Lever to IDLE Slide 31

Transition to new B737 SOP X
 Engine Start  New call-outs X The call “Oil Pressure rising” has been omitted Slide 32

Before Taxi Transition to new B737 SOP New setup
Exterior Light Logic summary Slide 33

Transition to new B737 SOP  Before Taxi  New setup It is not required to look outside for visual x-check, however on airplanes without Flight Control position indication on the flight deck, this remains a good operating practice. After engine start, the PF will accomplish the following tasks : call for desired Flap setting (delay flap setting if taxiways are contaminated or when taxiing towards de-icing bay) perform the Flight Control check (make sure all ground equipment is removed before moving the Flight Controls !) The PM will accomplish the following tasks : Forward OVHD panel setup - select Flaps at command of PF - select Transponder ON (as required by airport regulations) - (NG) blank the lower DU refer to FCOM and OMB for detailed procedures Followed by the new “Before Taxi” checklist Slide 34
