OPERATING PROCEDURES 2.2 EMERGENCY LIGHTING SYSTEM

A. Emergency lighting consists of internal and external lights powered by four dedicated batteries connected to the ESS BUS. The battery charge is sufficient to supply all emergency lights for approximately 10 minutes. External emergency lighting is provided by each of the escape slides located at each of the four doors of the airplane.

B. Internal emergency lights comprise the exit locator signs, exit marker signs, exit ID signs, cabin/cockpit emergency lights and passageway emergency lights.

C. Passageway emergency lights are photoluminescent strips that are charged prior to the first flight of the day through the interior cabin lighting.

2.2.1 FLIGHTDECK CONTROL

A. The emergency lighting system is controlled by the EMER LT switch on the overhead panel. The switch has three positions, OFF, ARMED and ON and is guarded to the ARMED position.

B. With the switch in the ARMED position, the emergency exit lights will normally be extinguished. If the power to the ESS BUS fails or if AC power has been turned off, the emergency exit lights illuminate automatically.

2.2.2 CABIN CONTROL

A. The emergency exit lights may be illuminated by a button on either the forward or aft flight attendant control panels. This is an ON button and is guarded to prevent inadvertent activation. For system testing, there is also an adjacent TEST button.

B. Without activating the ON button, the lights are controlled from the flightdeck. With the button depressed, the flight attendant may override the flightdeck controls and illuminate all the emergency lights. Control from this panel is available in the event of automatic control failure.

2.2.3 LIGHTS

A. The flightdeck aft DOME light contains a separate bulb that is powered by the emergency lighting system to provide illumination for flightdeck evacuation.

B. Interior emergency exit lights are located:

in the bullnose of the stowage bins to illuminate the aisle;

over the entry/service door(s) to indicate the exit locations; and

in the ceiling to assist locating the exists and provide general illumination in the area of the exits.

OPERATING PROCEDURES2.3 ERJ-170 PHASE II FLIGHTDECK DOOR

2.3.1 BACKGROUND

The ERJ-170 will be equipped with a Phase II Flightdeck Door. The Phase II door incorporates several safety features designed to provide improved security for the flightdeck.

This section provides information relating to the door’s composition and operation.

2.3.2 DESCRIPTION.A bullet-proof, intrusion-resistant, rearward-opening, hinged door separates the flightdeck from the passenger cabin. It has an electro-magnetic locking system controlled by the pilots; a wide-angle peephole, decompression/egress panels; cabin-side access panel; flightdeck door response button; dead bolt system; and an operative door latch on the flightdeck side.

2.3.3 PEEPHOLE

An improved peephole is provided with this Phase II door. This peephole provides a 135° field of view through bulletproof glass.

2.3.4 POWER SUPPLY

The flightdeck door system operates with 28 volt DC power supplied by DC BUS 2.

2.3.5 DECOMPRESSION PANELS

The ERJ-170 flightdeck bulkhead construction allows relief of cabin over-pressure (flightdeck rapid decompression) by means of the upper and lower door panels. When two redundant differential pressure sensors detect rapid pressure drop on the flightdeck, panel latches will be commanded to open simultaneously, allowing the panels to swing forward. The upper panel configuration is such that it attempts to minimize injury to the jumpseat rider from being hit on the head.

2.3.6 ELECTROMECHANICAL LATCH

A spring opens the electromechanical latch when it is not energized, ensuring the fail open condition to the cockpit door. When the door is in the closed position and power is supplied to the aircraft, the door will lock automatically. The dead bolt system is accessible only from the flightdeck. It allows the pilots to secure the door only when under MEL situations and the Flightdeck Access System LOCK button has been set to OFF. The cabin side of the deadbolt is a knob and has no effect on the dead bolt system.

OPERATING PROCEDURES 2.5 EMERGENCY EXITS

The ERJ-170 is equipped with a total of six emergency exits. All four main cabin doors are emergency exits. In addition, the two direct vision windows in the flightdeck are also designed as emergency exits.

2.6 CABIN DOORS (MAIN AND SERVICE)

The ERJ-170 is equipped with two main entry doors. Both are located on the left fuselage, forward and aft. Under normal operations, the forward main door is used to board and deplane passengers. Additionally, two service doors are located on the right fuselage, forward and aft.

The door opening operation is manual. The system has a mechanical assist. The door swings outward and forward toward the airplane’s nose.

Internal and external handles operate the door movement. The door remains against the airplane fuselage when fully open, thereby leaving the entrance completely clear for jetway use.

All doors have a sight window installed above the door handle assembly.

All doors are equipped with an emergency evacuation slide. The emergency evacuation slide is stowed in a container at the lower part of the door. The emergency evacuation slide is controlled by a “girt bar” mechanism inside the door. The mechanism can be manipulated manually by using the evacuation slide handle. When the door is opened from the outside, the emergency evacuation slide release mechanism is automatically disabled. (See also 2.7, "Emergency Evacuation Slide")

3.5 ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION

3.5.1 GENERAL

There is no temperature limitation for anti-icing system automatic operation.

3.5.2 DEFINITION OF ICING CONDITIONS

A. Icing conditions may exist whenever the Static Air Temperature (SAT) on the ground or for takeoff, or Total Air Temperature (TAT) inflight, is 10°C or below and visible moisture in any form is present (such as clouds, fog with visibility of one mile or less, rain, snow, sleet, and ice crystals).

B. Icing conditions may also exist when the SAT on the ground and for takeoff is 10°C or below when operating on ramps, taxiways, or runways where surface snow, ice, standing water, or slush may be ingested by the engines, or freeze on engines, nacelles, or engine sensor probes.

3.5.3 ENGINE AND WING ANTI-ICE SYSTEM OPERATIONS

3.5.3.1 On the ground (R)

During taxi out and takeoff, the MCDU DATASET MENU must be set to ALL when SAT is 10oC or below and icing conditions exist or are anticipated.

3.5.3.2 In flight

The engine and wing anti-ice systems operate automatically in case of ice encounter when the ICE PROTECTION Mode Selector is in AUTO. If either one or both ice detectors are failed, the crew must set the mode selector to ON when icing conditions exist or are anticipated below 10ºC TAT with visible moisture.

3.5.4 WINDSHIELD WIPER OPERATION

Maximum airspeed for windshield wiper operation is 250 KIAS (R)

On the ground, do not rely on visual icing evidence or ice detector actuation to turn on the engine anti-icing system. Use the temperature and visual moisture criteria specified in this section. Delaying the use of the Anti-Icing system until ice build-up is visible from the flight deck may result in ice ingestion and possible engine damage or flameout.

Delaying the use of the anti-icing system until ice build-up is visible from the flight deck may result in ice ingestion and possible engine damage and/or flameout.

Chapter 4Standard Operating Procedures, Maneuvers & Policies

4.1 PURPOSE

Reference: FAR 121.135

The purpose of Standard Operating Procedures is to provide a time-ordered flow of a normal flight. Each pilot’s duties are outlined and integrated with the duties of the other pilot. These Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) are intended

1) to establish a sequence in which the designated items are accomplished,

2) to designate which crew member normally accomplishes each item,

3) to be followed during all line flying and training.

The SOP contains instructions and information necessary to allow each flight crew to perform their aircraft duties and responsibilities with a high degree of safety.

Detailed explanation of a given item or policy will be found in each chapter.

4.2 GENERAL

4.2.1 ADHERENCE

All pilots will follow SOPs during normal operations. The PIC has the authority to deviate from SOPs, but only when an emergency situation require him to do so in the interest of safety.

4.2.1 STRUCTURE

SOPs define normal phases of flight (preflight, before start, etc.) and describes procedures that will accomplish required tasks prior to verification with checklists. SOPs are organized in a chronological flow, with pilot duties delineated and pilot interaction clearly indicated.

.315(a)

.315(b)

.315(c)

4.2.2 FLOW PATTERNS

When a flow pattern appears, unless otherwise indicated, pilots are expected to complete the items in order from memory, using applicable checklists only after the flow pattern is completed. Flow patterns are established to configure aircraft systems or accomplish required tasks in an organized manner without reference to a checklist.

4.2.3 EXCEPTIONS

The Safety & Power On and Securing Checklists are “read and do” checklists.

4.2.4 FLOW ARROW

The flow arrow on the flow pattern depicts the direction of the flow and does not always stop at each individual panel.

4.2.5 FLOW ITEMS

Flow patterns are depicted and flow items are delineated. These flow items contain grouped Company and manufacturer policies/procedures used in operating the aircraft and its individual components. Flow items are portrayed in the “expanded flows” as follows:

Audio Control Panel (ACP)- - - - - - - Set for O2 Check

4.2.6 CHECKLISTSReference: FAR 121.315

The Checklists contain approved procedures necessary for flight crewmembers to check for safety before starting engines, taking off, or landing, and in engine and systems emergencies.

Checklists are readily available in the cockpit and flight crews shall follow them when operating the aircraft.

Checklists are the means for ensuring critical items are accomplished. If an item can affect flight safety in a direct way, it is included in the checklist. Do not accomplish checklists until called for.

Checklist items are numbered and bolded as follows:

4.2.7 READ AND DO CHECKLISTS

Read and Do Checklists are directly referred to when accomplishing and will contain all items necessary to accomplish the task it was designed for (i.e., configuring the aircraft for application of electrical power/air conditioning and for power down).

4.2.8 PUSH BUTTON TERMINOLOGY

Push buttons have dual purposes. They are used as switches (position) and as lights (indication).

4.2.8.1 Position

Will be either IN, Guarded, or OUT.

“Guarded” indicates the guard is in place and the underlying switch light is dark (i.e., normal flight position).

4.2.8.2 Indication

Will be either dark (normal flight position) or an illuminated white bar when the button is deselected.

4.2.9 DARK AND QUIET FLIGHT DECK

The flight deck is designed to operate in flight with all systems normal when the

overhead, main, glareshield, and control pedestal panels have no lights ON,there are no aural warnings, andthe selector knobs are at the twelve o’clock position.

A white bar illuminates on any button indicating it is not in its normal position.

4.2.10 FIREWALL THRUST

Firewall thrust is defined as advancing the thrust levers to the mechanical stops.

Overboosting the engines when the situation is not sufficiently serious, or prior to performing all other recovery actions available, would shorten engine life and increase the potential for engine failure proportionate to the time and amount of overboost, engine condition, and environment.

4.2.11 MAXIMUM THRUST

Maximum thrust is defined as maximum certified N1.

4.2.12 AUTOMATION PROCEDURES

Refer to the FOM, Chapter 4, Automation Policy.

OPS-07A Original 29AUG2005

PAGE 4-4 ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

4.2.13 MANIPULATION OF GEAR AND FLAP CONTROLS

In flight, the pilot monitoring (PM) will normally move the landing gear and flap controls upon the command of the pilot flying (PF). Prior to moving the landing gear or flap handle, the PM will check the airspeed to ensure that it is in the normal operating envelope for the aircraft configuration. After checking the airspeed, the PM will repeat the command, then select the landing gear or flaps to the commanded position.

4.2.14 AUTOTHROTTLE USAGE

When hand-flying, autothrottles may be used at pilot’s discretion.

4.2.15 CHANGING AFCS/PFD ALTITUDE

4.2.15.1 Aircraft On Autopilot

PF sets AFCS altitude via the guidance panel, points to the PFD Selected Altitude Readout and verbally states the cyan preselect altitude.PM points to and verbally states the cyan preselect altitude in the PFD Selected Altitude Readout.Under high workload conditions, the PF may request the PM to set the required altitude which is accomplished using the procedure below.

4.2.15.2 Manually Controlled Flight

PM sets AFCS altitude via the guidance panel, points to the PFD Selected Altitude Readout and verbally states the cyan preselect altitude.PF points to the new AFCS altitude and verbally states the cyan preselect altitude in the PFD Selected Altitude Readout.

4.3.1 FLIGHT SPOILER AND THRUST USAGE

Whenever the flight spoilers are used, the PF should keep a hand on the spoiler lever to avoid forgetting the flight spoilers are extended.Thrust should be at flight idle when deploying spoilers. Retract the flight spoilers before adding thrust.

4.3.2 HOLDING

4.3.2.1 Speed

A. When an aircraft is 3 minutes or less from a clearance limit and a clearance beyond the fix has not been received, the pilot is expected to start a speed reduction so that the aircraft will cross the fix, initially, at or below the maximum holding airspeed.

B. It may be advantageous to request a clearance to reduce to holding speed immediately. This will reduce the required holding time and fuel burn at the holding fix.

C. The minimum holding speeds may be determined from the holding tables located in Chapter 9 of the ERJ-170 Aircraft Performance Manual.

D. The maximum holding speed is limited as follows:

4.3.2.2 Entries

The FMS offers three (3) types of entries into holding patterns:

directteardrop

If the leg toward the holding fix is on a “limit” between a teardrop entry and a parallel entry, the FMS may compute and display either of the two entries. Do not assume the FMS is malfunctioning.

parallelIf the flight plan leg toward the holding fix is on a course that is the reciprocal of the inbound course of the holding pattern, the aircraft will fly a parallel entry.

4.4 WINDSHEAR RECOVERY

4.4.1 GENERAL.A. See QRH Severe Weather/Windshear for windshear takeoff and

landing precautions. The ERJ-170 has a windshear escape guidance mode provided by the FD. This recovery guidance occurs only during the windshear warning.

B. The primary recovery technique objective is to keep the airplane flying as long as possible while attempting to exit the shear. A wide variety of techniques were considered to establish the one best meeting this objective. The best results were achieved by pitching toward an initial target attitude while using necessary thrust. Several factors were considered in developing this technique.

C. Studies show windshear encounters occur infrequently and that only a few seconds are available to initiate a successful recovery. Additionally, during high stress situations, pilot instrument scan typically becomes very limited, i.e., in extreme cases, to only one instrument. Lastly, recovery skills will not be exercised on a day-to-day basis. These factors dictate that the recovery technique must not only be effective, but simple, easily recalled, and have general applicability.

D. Extensive analysis and pilot evaluations were conducted. Although a range of recovery attitudes provide good recovery capability for a wide variety of windshears, 15° is chosen as the initial target pitch attitude for both takeoff and approach. Additional advantages of 15° initial target pitch attitude are that it is easily recalled in emergency situations and it is prominently displayed on the attitude director indicator.

PAGE 4-7

4.4.2 WINDSHEAR DETECTION

A. Windshear detection is activated between 10 and 1500 ft. radio altitude during the initial takeoff, go-around and final approach phases of flight.

B. Increasing headwind and up drafts detection cause the annunciation of an amber WSHEAR on PFD and a CAUTION WINDSHEAR voice message.

C. Decreasing headwind (or increasing tailwind) and down drafts detection cause the annunciation of a warning windshear condition through a red WSHEAR on PFD and a “WINDSHEAR; WINDSHEAR; WINDSHEAR” voice message.

4.4.3 WINDSHEAR ESCAPE GUIDANCE MODE

A. The Windshear Escape Guidance Mode provides a pitch command to recover from a windshear to minimize altitude and airspeed loss during a windshear encounter.

B. This mode is a flight director mode and it is engaged in the following conditions:

- Manually: pressing the Go Around Button while a windshear condition is detected.

- Automatically: operating in go-around or takeoff mode and a windshear condition is detected.

- Automatically when thrust levers position is above 78° and a warning windshear condition is detected.

C. The other flight director modes are canceled and the following modes are inhibited while in a caution or warning windshear condition:

D. Altitude pre-select, go-around and takeoff modes are canceled while in a caution or warning windshear condition. No lateral mode is inhibited while in windshear mode.

OPS-07A Original 29AUG2005

PAGE 4-8 ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

E. The Windshear Escape Guidance Mode incorporates three control logics:

- Gamma Submode - The airplane has a positive flight path angle. This sub-mode allows the airspeed to build up during an increasing performance windshear in anticipation of a decreasing performance windshear.

- Alpha Submode - The airplane maintains airspeed when approaching stall conditions. The windshear protection control logic keeps the airplane angle of attack below the stick shaker firing angle.

- Speed Target Submode - The airplane manages the airspeed to prevent overspeed. Pitch up is commanded to maintain the calculated airspeed.

F. Windshear conditions will not be detected if either EGPWS or the Radar Altimeter is unavailable.

4.4.4 APPROACH

For approach, plan on using Landing Flaps 5.

4.4.5 WINDSHEAR RECOGNITION TECHNIQUES

A. The EGPWS provides a windshear detection/annunciation system. Additionally, some cues are presented to help the pilot in a windshear recognition.

B. Marginal flight path control may be indicated by uncontrolled changes from normal, steady-state flight conditions such as follows:

When the airplane is entering the microburst (increased head wind):

FPV speed error tape: indicates speed above the selected speed target.FPA acceleration pointer: indicates deceleration of the airplane.

When the airplane is exiting the microburst (increased tail wind):

FPV speed error tape: indicates speed below the selected speed target.FPA acceleration pointer: indicates acceleration of the airplane.

4.7 STALLS

4.7.1 GENERAL

During the initial stages of a stall, local air flow separation results in initial buffet giving natural warning of an approach to stall. A stall warning is considered to be any warning readily identifiable by the pilot, either artificial (stick shaker) or initial buffet. Recovery from an approach to stall will be initiated at the earliest recognizable stall warning.

4.7.2 LATERAL AND DIRECTIONAL CONTROL

Lateral control is maintained with ailerons. Rudder (directional) control should not be used because it causes yaw and the resultant roll is undesirable.

4.7.3 EFFECT OF FLAPS.Flaps are used to increase low-speed performance capability. The leading edge devices ensure the inboard wing will stall prior to the outboard wing.

4.7.4 EFFECT OF FLIGHT SPOILERS.For any airspeed, the angle of attack is higher with speedbrakes up (extended). This increases initial buffet speed and stick shaker speed, but has a lesser effect on actual stall speed.

4.7.5 APPROACHES TO STALLS

Approaches to stalls will be accomplished using different flap configurations. The stall speed and angle-of-attack at stall are essentially the same power-on or power-off for jet aircraft. Jet aircraft thrust has little effect on lowering the stall speed.

4.7.6 STALL TRAINING

Stall training is accomplished in the simulator.

4.7.7 ALTITUDES

Simulator training may be done at realistic altitudes for arrival, departure, and level flight maneuvering altitudes.

4.7.8 ENTRY

The instructor is responsible for the set up of the stalls.

OPS-07A Original 29AUG2005

PAGE 4-16 ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

4.7.9 RECOVERY

At the first stall warning indication

Call “FIREWALL THRUST” while advancing the thrust levers to the mechanical stops.Establish a pitch attitude to keep altitude loss to a minimum.Continue accelerating and establish climb or level flight as necessary.When normal airspeed for the existing configuration is reached

Reduce thrust to the normal operating rangeIf an engine exceedance occurs or is suspected, refer to QRH procedure.

4.7.9.1 Landing Gear.

If the entry has been made with the landing gear extended, do not retract the landing gear until after the recovery.

4.7.9.2 Flaps.

Do not retract flaps during the recovery. Retracting the flaps from the landing position, especially when near the ground, causes an altitude loss during the recovery. Flap extension above 20,000′ is not permitted.

4.7.9.3 If Terrain Contact is a Factor.

At the first indication of a stall (buffet or stick-shaker), disconnect the autopilot, smoothly advance the thrust levers to firewall thrust and adjust the pitch attitude as necessary to avoid the terrain. Simultaneously level the wings. Control pitch as smoothly as possible. As the engines accelerate, the airplane nose will pitch up. To assist in pitch control, add more nose down trim as the thrust increases. Avoid abrupt control inputs that may induce a secondary stall. Use intermittent stick shaker as the upper limit for pitch attitude. When terrain contact is no longer a factor, continue to adjust pitch as required to accelerate to maneuvering speed.

4.7.9.4 If Terrain Contact is Not a Factor.

At the first indication of a stall (buffet or stick-shaker), smoothly apply firewall thrust and smoothly decrease the pitch attitude to approximately 5° above the horizon and level the wings. As engines accelerate, counter the nose-up pitch tendency with positive forward control column pressure and nose-down trim. (At altitudes above 20,000 feet, pitch attitudes of less than 5° may be necessary to achieve acceptable acceleration).

Accelerate to maneuvering speed and stop the rate of descent. Correct back to the target altitude.

4.11 EMERGENCY DESCENT

4.11.1 GENERAL This maneuver is designed to provide a smooth descent to a safe altitude, in minimum time, with the lowest possible passenger discomfort.

4.11.2 DISCUSSION If structural damage is suspected, limit airspeed as much as possible, and avoid high maneuvering loads.

When turbulent air is encountered or expected, reduce to turbulent air penetration speed (270 KIAS/.7 MACH).

Rapid descent is normally made with the landing gear up and speedbrakes OPEN to FULL.

4.11.3 USE OF FLIGHT LEVEL CHANGE (FLCH) Because of airspeed and altitude protection and reduced crew workload, use of the autopilot with FLCH mode is the recommended technique for rapid descents. Use of vertical speed (V/S) mode is not recommended.

To initiate an emergency descent, set a lower altitude in the altitude window (Spin). Engage FLCH (Push), retard thrust levers to idle (Pull), and smoothly OPEN to FULL the speedbrakes (Pull). The aircraft will pitch down smoothly. Adjust the speed as necessary and ensure the altitude window is correctly set for the level off. During descent, the IAS/MACH speed window changes from MACH to IAS at approximately 300 KIAS. Manually reset to VMO as desired.

4.11.4 LEVEL OFF A. Level off at 10,000 feet or safe altitude, whichever is higher.

B. Safe altitude is:

On airway:- Minimum Enroute Altitude (MEA), or Minimum Obstacle Clearance

Altitude (MOCA), whichever is higher, orOff airway:

- Minimum Off-Route Altitude (MORA), or any other altitude based on terrain clearance, navigation aid reception, orWithin terminal area:

- Highest Minimum Safe Altitude (MSA)C. Approximately 1,000 feet above the desired altitude, smoothly return

the speedbrake to CLOSE during the level off maneuver.

NO

TE

Use of the autopilot is recommended.

OPS-07AOriginal 29AUG2005

ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

PAGE 4-23

D. When approaching the selected altitude, the altitude capture will engage automatically. Adjusting the command speed to approximately LRC or 300 knots prior to level off minimizes thrust lever activity at altitude capture. The pitch mode will then control altitude and the thrust levers will increase to hold speed.

4.11.5 USE OF THE AUTOPILOT The autopilot should remain engaged and used to accomplish the descent.

4.11.6 AFTER LEVEL OFF Determine new course of action based on weather, oxygen, fuel remaining and available airports. Obtain new ATC clearance.

4.11.7 MANUAL FLIGHT A. To manually fly the maneuver, disconnect the autothrottles and

retard thrust levers to idle. Smoothly OPEN the speedbrakes, disconnect the autopilot, and smoothly lower the nose to initial descent attitude, (approximately 10° nose-down). About 10 knots before reaching target speed (VMO/MMO), slowly reduce the pitch attitude to maintain target speed. Keep the aircraft in trim at all times. If VMO/MMO is inadvertently exceeded, change pitch smoothly to decrease speed.

B. Approaching level off altitude, smoothly adjust pitch attitude to reduce rate of descent. The speedbrake lever should be returned to CLOSE approximately 1,000 feet above the desired altitude. After reaching level flight, add thrust to maintain desired speed.

SOP BULLETINSOP-08-02

Effective Date: May 9, 2008

To: All SOP Holders

From: Kevin Cline, ERJ 170 Program Manager

Subject: Revised Taxi Checklist

Directions:

1) This bulletin remains in effect until instructed to remove it in a future revision. This bulletin supersedes SOP-07-01 and be sure to remove SOP-07-01 from your SOP.

2) This Bulletin is in Four parts. This is part One. 3) Record the insertion of SOP-08-02 and removal of SOP-07-01 in

the Record of Bulletins section on page BUL-1 of your Standard Operating Procedures Manual.

Background: In response to the FAA Industry efforts to eliminate runway incursions, one of the elements is to reduce the amount of time spent doing duties that interfere with a flight crews ability to keep their attention outside of the aircraft during taxi. There, Republic Airlines has reduced the number of items on the Taxi Checklist to a minimum in order to minimize the distractions associated with running checklist items that could be performed prior to aircraft movement.

A. Perform the entire Before Start checklist, start the desired engine (normally #1) and after the first engine start is complete, perform the entire After Start checklist. (Gate or ramp conditions may require both engines to be operating until clear of the area. In this case, shutdown an engine for a known ground delay when appropriate.)

B. The delayed engine start may be accomplished anytime it is convenient considering crew workload and proximity to the takeoff runway.

C. Do not initiate the delayed engine start while crossing a runway or on congested ramp areas unless the aircraft is stopped and the parking brake is set.

7.10 SUPPLEMENTAL START PROCEDURES

7.10.1 DEFINITIONA supplemental start procedure is a procedure used in lieu of a normal procedure in certain circumstances (e.g., cross-bleed engine start, etc.). It is not a non-normal procedure.

7.10.2 PROCEDURE

Pilots may accomplish the supplemental start procedure

- from memory,- by reviewing the procedure prior to its accomplishment, or- by reading the procedure during its accomplishment.

Chapter 8\ Before Takeoff

8.1 GENERAL

8.1.1 THRUST MANAGEMENT

Thrust use during ground operations demands sound judgement and techniques. The air blast effects at relatively low thrust can be destructive and cause injury. Be aware of aircraft behind and likewise avoid following other aircraft too closely.

.

Consider tow out if the thrust required could cause injury/damage

8.1.2 SPEED

The tendency is to taxi faster than desired, especially during runway turnoff after landing. The appropriate taxi speed will depend on the turn radius and surface condition. Nosewheel scrubbing indicates excessive steering angle and/or excessive taxi speed for surface condition. The normal straight ahead taxi speed should not exceed thirty (30) knots. When approaching a turn, adjust speed for the surface conditions.

8.1.3 AIRCRAFT MOVEMENT

8.1.3.1 Initial

To begin taxiing, release the brakes and smoothly increase thrust to the minimum required for the aircraft to move forward.

8.1.3.2 Sustaining

Once taxi has commenced, idle thrust is more than adequate for most conditions. Do not start a turn until sufficient forward speed has been attained to allow the aircraft to turn at idle thrust.

Jet blast is a major cause of foreign object damage (FOD).

NO

TE

Allow time for aircraft response to each thrust change.

NO

TE

The nosewheel should not be turned when the aircraft is static.

OPS-07A Original 29AUG2005

PAGE 8-2 ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

8.1.4 NOSEWHEEL/RUDDER PEDAL STEERING

During a turn, maintain positive pressure on the nose steering tiller to prevent the nose gear from returning to center abruptly. Straight ahead steering and large radius turns should be accomplished with rudder pedal steering only. Avoid stopping the aircraft in a turn, as excessive thrust will be required to start taxiing again. After completing a turn, and prior to stopping, center the nosewheel and allow the aircraft to roll straight ahead for short distance.

8.1.5 BRAKES

Avoid riding the brakes to control taxi speed. If taxi speed is too high, reduce the speed with a steady brake application and then release the brakes to permit brake cooling. Continuous braking should be avoided. Allow for decreased braking effectiveness on slick surfaces.

8.1.6 TURNING RADIUS

The turning radius illustration shows the minimum turning radius capability. The tail tip has the largest arc while turning and determines the minimum obstruction clearance path.

8.2 TAXI PROCEDURES

8.2.1 PRIMARY TASK

The captain will taxi the aircraft. The flight crew’s primary task is to safely taxi the aircraft and should not be diverted from this task.

8.2.2 TAXI CLEARANCE

Normally the first officer requests taxi clearance. Both pilots will listen for the clearance and acknowledge any hold short instructions to ATC and each other.

8.2.3 USE OF THRUST

Use only the thrust necessary to start the aircraft rolling. Consider tow out if the thrust required could cause injury/damage.

8.2.4 SINGLE ENGINE TAXI

Single engine taxi procedures are permitted. Normally taxi with the #1 engine running. Use the following general guidelines and specific procedures:

8.2.4.1 General Guidelines

A. Consider crew experience, workload requirements, and passenger comfort.

B. Consider single engine taxi if anticipated delay time will exceed 15 (fifteen) minutes.

C. Consider gross weight, temperature, ramp congestion and taxiway surface conditions before deciding to single engine taxi away from the gate.

D. If possible, begin single engine taxi with a slight turn toward the non-operating engine. There will be less resistance, resulting in a lower thrust setting.

E. Sharp turns toward the operating engine will be difficult.

F. Constant pressure on the tiller will be required due to asymmetric thrust. Do not use rudder trim to counteract this turning tendency.

G. Keep the APU running for taxi-out; an APU start is more efficient than a crossbleed start.

Do not taxi so close behind other aircraft as to ingest foreign objects.

High thrust settings required for breakaway can damage equipment in close proximity to the aircraft.

OPS-07A Original 29AUG2005

PAGE 8-4 ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

H. If lengthy ground delays after gate departure are encountered with both engines operating, consider shutting down an engine.

I. If the right engine is used for the single engine taxi, the HYS SYS 1 & 2 ELEC PUMPS should be turned ON.

8.2.4.2 Specific Procedures

A. Single engine taxi is not authorized when–

- ramps and taxiways when braking action is less than “Good”.- stations use power-out taxi

B. Fuel balancing limitations must be observed.

C. Because the starting sequence involves both pilots, the aircraft must not cross any runways or be taxiing in a congested area while conducting a delayed engine start. Plan taxi operations accordingly.

8.2.5 DELAYED ENGINE START

Start the remaining engine using the normal start procedure. If APU is unavailable, perform a crossbleed start (see Supplemental Start Procedures). Allow enough time to complete the Before Takeoff Checklist.

Chapter 9Takeoff

9.1 NORMAL TAKEOFF

9.1.1 SETTING TAKEOFF THRUST Crossing the runway hold short line, as part of the Before Takeoff flow, press the TOGA switch(s) and verify ROLL & TO and autothrottles (TO white) are displayed in the FMA. As the aircraft lines up on the runway, the PF advances the thrust levers to approximately 40% N1 and verifies the engines are spooled evenly. After the engines are stabilized, the PF releases the brakes, advances the thrust levers to approximately 50 degrees TLA (thrust lever angle), verifies autothrottle engagement (TO & AT annunciates green) and calls “TOGA”.

The PM will confirm the thrust levers advance, ATTCS is enabled (displayed in green), TO-1 or FLEX TO-1 (if used) is annunciated on the EICAS. The PM then calls “TOGA Set”.

9.1.2 GUARDING THE THRUST LEVERS

Since the normal takeoff profile involves the use of the autothrottle system, only the Captain will have his hands on the thrust levers after the autothrottle system is engaged. There is no need for the other pilot to guard the thrust levers during the takeoff roll.

- Whenever the First Officer is making the takeoff, the FO will push the thrust levers up, call “TOGA” and move his hands off of the thrust levers.

- The Captain will then place his hands on the thrust levers until V1 is called by the PM.

9.1.3 INITIAL STEERING

Keep the airplane on the runway center line with nosewheel steering until rudder effectiveness. The rudder becomes effective between 40 and 60 KIAS.

NO

TE The exact amount of the setting is

not as important as setting symmet-rical thrust.

OPS-07A Revision 01 06FEB2006

PAGE 9-2 ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

9.1.4 AFT CENTER-OF-GRAVITY EFFECTS

At aft CG and light weights nose wheel steering effectiveness may be reduced. Hold the control wheel slightly forward to improve nose wheel steering.

9.2 OTHER TAKEOFF TYPES

9.2.1 ROLLING

The rolling takeoff is the same as the normal takeoff except that brakes are not applied.

9.2.2 MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE

The maximum performance takeoff is the same as the normal takeoff except the brakes are held until after takeoff thrust N1 is achieved.

9.2.3 CROSSWIND

The aircraft demonstrates good crosswind control capability during the takeoff roll. Directional deviations should be corrected immediately with smooth and positive control inputs.

The aileron becomes effective as the aircraft accelerates through approximately 80 KIAS. Use aileron as needed to maintain wings level and rudder to maintain center line.

9.2.4 FLAP 1Flap 1 takeoffs are authorized and use the same profile as Flap 2 takeoffs.

9.2.5 FLAP 4Flaps 4 takeoffs are authorized under the following conditions:

Captains must perform all Flaps 4 takeoffs unless the First Officer is a Check Airman, in which case the Check Airman may perform the takeoff from the right seat.Flaps 4 takeoff data must be available for the runway in use.

9.2.6 ECS OFFA. ECS OFF takeoffs are performed when additional performance is

required.

B. Select ECS OFF on the T/O DATASET MENU p1/1. Ensure the ENG REF ECS DISAG Caution EICAS message is not displayed.

C. If the APU is available, leave the APU running during takeoff and turn the APU off after the AFTER TAKEOFF checklist is complete.

NO

TE

The EICAS display will not declutter until the APU has been shutdown.

9.3 ROTATION & LIFT-OFF

9.3.1 ROTATION AND LIFTOFF

At VR, rotate smoothly toward the target pitch attitude in one continuous motion. Use a rotation rate of approximately 2° to 3° per second. Correct rotation technique is important to ensure adequate performance is obtained. Lift-off will occur prior to reaching initial climb target attitude. After lift-off and once a positive rate of climb has been established, select landing gear up.

9.3.2 INITIAL CLIMB

With all engines operating, adjust the pitch attitude to maintain V2 + 10 to 15 knots to the acceleration altitude.

9.3.3 FLIGHT DIRECTOR

Following liftoff continue the rotation rate as follows:

9.3.4 CLEAN-UP AND ACCELERATION

At acceleration altitude (1,000 feet AFE), adjust the pitch attitude to maintain a slight climb rate while accelerating to 210 KIAS.

9.3.4.1 Flap Retraction Speed Schedule

Retract flaps to the next setting when airspeed is equal to or greater than the “F” bug.

9.3.4.2 Slat/Flap Retraction Complete

Once the SLAT/Flap retraction is complete and above 3000 ft. AFE, select 250 knots and resume normal climb.

If.... Then....

the flight director is operative... fly the flight director pitch com-mands.

the flight director is inopera-tive...

fly a maximum deck angle lim-ited to 12°. Fly a maximum deck angle limited to 12°.

NO

TE

During flap 4 takeoffs, until the flaps are retracted to flaps 2, the flap limit speed may be less than the desired-VFS. After each flap retraction the PM should check the Selected Airspeed Bug to confirm it matches the VFS Bug. If the Selected Airspeed Bug is less, it should be adjusted up to the VFS Bug or Flap Limit Speed, which-ever is less.

9.6 REJECTED TAKEOFF ACTIONS & CALLOUTS

9.6.1 AFTER A REJECTED TAKEOFF

A. Consider the condition of the aircraft and the reason for the rejection. If the situation is stable, clear the runway before stopping the aircraft. Stop on the runway if the potential for an evacuation exists. The runway provides crash fire and rescue vehicles better access to the aircraft.

B. Consider requesting assistance from the tower, ground personnel or the flight attendants in evaluating the situation. Use all available information in formulating a response plan.

9.6.2 COMMUNICATIONS

A. Notify the tower of any rejected takeoff. Communications with the flight attendants and passengers must be considered.

B. Rejected Takeoff PA Announcements - A rejected takeoff can cause a great deal of anxiety among passengers. A prompt and professional announcement will reassure the passengers and may prevent an unwarranted evacuation initiated by flight attendants or passengers.

PAGE 9-8 ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

9.7 LOSS OF THRUST AT OR ABOVE V1

9.7.1 GENERAL

In the event of a single engine malfunction accompanied by a loss of thrust at or above V1, follow the “Loss of Thrust At or Above V1” procedure. If the engine is still producing normal thrust (such as an engine fire or compressor/stall), clean up using the normal takeoff profile except fly

- the runway heading or- follow the applicable route manual “Engine Failure - Takeoff”

procedure.

9.7.1.1 Considerations

The PF must fly the aircraft and not be distracted trying to analyze the problem while the aircraft is in a critical phase of flight.

Normally, the safest course of action is to accomplish the appropriate non-normal checklist after the flaps are up and the desired climb speed has been attained. However, under compelling circumstances such as severe vibration, adverse flight characteristics, etc., it may be necessary to accomplish the immediate action items as early as 400 ft. AFE.

9.7.1.2 Takeoff Performance

Takeoff performance using an assumed temperature is predicated on an engine failure, thus advancing thrust may not be necessary to maintain safe flight. In the event ATTCS does not adjust to MAX Thrust, manually advancing thrust to maximum takeoff thrust has the potential to aggravate the situation by increasing adverse yaw.

However, additional thrust is available and must be used if necessary to sustain safe flight.

9.7.2 ENGINE FAILURE

An engine failure is an engine malfunction accompanied by thrust loss without any apparent damage. The potential for a relight, inflight start, or continued operation at reduced thrust exists.

Engine Failure without Severe Damage

Initially identified by:increasing yaw anddecreasing N1/N2 indications

Airborne indications:N1 rotation, FAIL icon on N1 gauge andN2 rotation, andoil pressure may indicate zero even though no damage exists

Follow:“Loss of Thrust At or Above V1” procedure and QRH “ENG 1 (2) FAIL” procedure

OPS-07AOriginal 29AUG2005

ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

PAGE 9-9

9.7.2.1 Engine Fire

If the engine is on fire and is still producing normal thrust, aircraft performance should not be adversely affected. However, if the engine has lost thrust, the performance loss necessitates the use of the “Loss of Thrust At or Above V1” procedure.

9.7.3 ENGINE SEVERE DAMAGE

Engine severe damage may be due to turbine seizure or failure. Seizure may not occur until the engine is shutdown. If the engine has separated: fuel flow, N1, and N2 will drop to zero with associated hydraulic, pneumatic, and electrical system non-normal indications. The potential for further damage or fire exists.

9.7.4 COMPRESSOR/ENGINE STALL

There are three (3) types of compressor/engine stalls:

1) Single or multiple compressor/engine stalls prior to self recovery.

2) Multiple compressor/engine stalls requiring pilot action to recovery.

3) A non-recoverable compressor/engine stall.

Engine Fire

Initially identified by:engine fire warning indicationslittle, if any, yaw will occur (if the engine is still producing thrust)

After airborne: engine failure/severe damage may be imminent

Follow:

normal climb profile except fly the runway heading or follow the applicable route manual “Engine Failure - Takeoff” procedureor if loss of thrust occurs follow “Loss of Thrust At or Above V1” procedure and QRH “ENG 1 (2) FIRE” or “Engine Fire, Severe Damage or Separation” procedure

Engine Severe Damage

Initially identified by:

decreasing engine N1/N2 and vibration indications on EICASvibration/noise from the affected engine, andyaw (may be rapid)surge/stall

Confirmed after airborne by:

seized N1 orseized N2 orzero oil pressureITT risevibration indications on EICAS display

Follow:

normal climb profile except fly the runway heading or follow the applicable route manual “Engine Failure - Takeoff” procedureor if loss of thrust occurs follow “Loss of Thrust At or Above V1” procedure and QRH “Engine Fire, Severe Damage or Separation” procedure

OPS-07A Original 29AUG2005

PAGE 9-10 ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

9.7.4.1 Single/Multiple with Self Recovery

During takeoff a single stall will be followed by a loud bang, yaw, vibration, and engine instrument fluctuation. The engine normally recovers so quickly, if no engine monitoring message is received, it may be difficult to detect which engine stalled. For multiple stalls, the loud bang, yaw, vibration, engine instrument fluctuation, and ITT increase will repeat with each stall until self recovery.

9.7.4.2 Multiple Requiring Pilot Action

The loud bang, yaw, vibration, engine instrument fluctuation, and ITT increase will repeat with each stall until thrust is reduced.

9.7.4.3 Non-Recoverable

The loud bang, yaw, vibration, engine instrument fluctuation, and ITT increase will repeat with each stall until the engine is shut down or fails.

9.7.4.4 Compressor/Engine Stall Considerations

Multiple compressor/engine stall events increase aircraft handling difficulty. The magnitude of the symptoms are difficult to simulate and have distracted crews from flying the aircraft in the past. The loud bang, yaw, and vibration associated with the stall have been misidentified as tire failure, a bomb, or more frequently, severe damage.

Compressor/Engine Stalls

Initially identified by:

loud bang and yaw (may be repetitive)vibration,engine instrument fluctuation,ITT rise, andflames from inlet and tailpipe

Confirmed after airborne for:

Single/Multiple with Self Recovery

the engine returns to normal or close to normal parameters

Multiple Requiring Pilot Action

stall symptoms cease when the thrust lever is retarded (ITT may not decrease immediately)

Non-Recoverable

stall symptoms do not cease until the engine is shut down or fails

Follow:

normal climb profile except fly the runway heading or follow the applicable route manual “Engine Failure - Takeoff” procedureor if loss of thrust occurs follow “Loss of Thrust At or Above V1” procedure and QRH “Engine Fire, Severe Damage or Separation” procedure

OPS-07AOriginal 29AUG2005

ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

PAGE 9-11

9.7.5 ENGINE FAILURE RECOGNITION

An engine failure due to turbine failure or other internal causes at or after V1 will initially affect yaw much like a crosswind. Vibration and noise from the affected engine may be apparent and the onset of the yaw may be rapid.

9.7.5.1 Engine Failure Callout

The first pilot recognizing the engine failure will make the callout “Engine Failure”, but will not identify the engine.

9.7.6 THRUST REQUIREMENTS

The PF will continue the takeoff roll and if an assumed temperature (Flex thrust) has been used for takeoff, the ATTCS adjusts for loss of thrust. The PM verifies this compensation by verifying T/O-1 RSV is displayed on the EICAS.

9.7.7 DIRECTIONAL CONTROL PRIOR TO LIFTOFF

To counter the thrust asymmetry due to an engine failure between V1 and liftoff, maintain directional control by smoothly applying rudder proportionally to thrust decay; thereby, maintaining the desired ground track. Use aileron to keep wings level during the liftoff. Anticipate additional rudder displacement when the nosewheel leaves the runway.

9.7.8 ROTATION

At VR, the PM will callout “Rotate”. The PF will rotate with one continuous motion at a rate slightly less than for a normal takeoff, or approximately 2° per second. After liftoff continue the rotation rate as follows:

If.... Then....

the flight director is operative... fly the flight director pitch com-mands.

the flight director is inopera-tive...

fly a maximum deck angle lim-ited to 8°.

NO

TE Engine-out takeoff performance

meets or exceeds required climb gradients even at FLEX thrust set-tings.

OPS-07A Original 29AUG2005

PAGE 9-12 ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

9.7.9 DIRECTIONAL CONTROL AFTER LIFTOFF

The first indication of engine failure will be a yaw towards the failed engine. If an engine failure occurs after liftoff, apply rudder in the direction the control wheel is displaced.

9.7.10 INITIAL CLIMB

A. When safely airborne, with a positive rate of climb on the VSI; the PM will callout, “Positive Rate” and the PF will command “Gear Up”.

B. When time and conditions permit, the PM will notify ATC.

C. When at or above 400 feet AFE, the PF will

- fly the runway heading or- call for the appropriate ‘FD roll mode’ to comply with airport specific

“Engine Failure - Takeoff” procedure, if published.

9.7.10.1 Ground Track Consideration

If an engine failure occurs after turning from the runway centerline, or the “Engine Failure - Takeoff” ground track, the crew must determine the safest lateral flightpath. As a guide, the closer the aircraft is to the runway, the more likely the extended runway centerline or “Engine Failure Takeoff” ground track is the safest lateral path. However, as altitude increases and ATC/departure procedure turns are accomplished, other lateral flightpaths may be the safer option.

9.7.11 ACCELERATION AND CLEAN-UP

A. At Engine Out acceleration altitude, the PF will

- call for “Flight Level Change, VFS”,- accelerate, and - retract the flaps on schedule.

B. The PM will select the proper flap setting when requested.

C. If the flaps are extended beyond Flaps 2, the Flap Limit Speed may be lower than VFS. In that event after each flap retraction, the PM must check the Selected Speed Bug is set either to the current Flap Limit Speed or VFS whichever is lower.

D. At the last flap retraction, the PF will respond “Flaps UP” and the PM will retract the flaps. As the flaps are retracted and the aircraft accelerates, adjust the rudder pedal position to maintain the control wheel level and apply trim to relieve rudder pedal pressure.

NO

TE Inflight, correct input will approxi-

mate the leveling of the control wheel.

OPS-07ARevision 01 06FEB2006

ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

PAGE 9-13

9.7.11.1 Max Continuous Thrust

At VFS the PM will select CON on MCDU and verify CON is displayed on the EICAS.

9.7.12 FOLLOW-UP ACTIONS

The PF will then call for the appropriate QRH procedure if immediate actions apply. If no immediate actions, the captain assigns the PF, and then accomplishes the QRH procedures.

After the QRH procedures are complete, the PM will accomplish the After Takeoff Checklist.

9.7.12.1 Altitude

Climb to the assigned/safe altitude at the Flaps UP maneuver speed.

9.7.12.2 Autopilot Usage

The autopilot should be engaged as soon as possible (if available) to reduce workload but in no case lower than 400 ft. AFE.

9.7.12.3 Notification

The failure or shutdown of an engine inflight must be reported to the appropriate ATC agency and the controlling dispatcher. ATC and the controlling dispatcher should be kept informed of the flight progress, work load permitting. Immediately after landing, the captain will

- call the dispatcher (if not previously done)- enter the discrepancy in the logbook- complete an Irregularity Report (IR).

9.7.13 LANDING

When one engine of a two engine aircraft fails or is shut down inflight, a landing shall be made at the nearest suitable airport.

10.1.1 CLIMB SPEED DETERMINATION

Maintain flaps-up maneuvering speed until clear of obstacles or above minimum crossing altitudes. If there are no altitude or airspeed restrictions, accelerate to the desired climb speed schedule.

10.1.2 MANEUVERING

If considerable maneuvering is required during the departure, the flaps-up maneuvering speed is recommended until the maneuvering phase is complete and the aircraft is en route toward the destination.

10.1.3 SPEED SCHEDULE

The following climb speed schedule presents four (4) climb speeds above 10,000 ft. The speed selected would be determined by the operational requirements.

10.1.4 CLIMB THRUST

Set climb thrust by selecting FLCH on the Guidance Panel. The FADEC will maintain the correct thrust setting automatically throughout the flight.

10.1.5 MAXIMUM ANGLE CLIMB

Maximum angle climb speed is normally used for obstacle clearance or to reach a specified altitude/flight level in a minimum distance. Maximum angle climb speed varies with gross weight and can be referenced by using the pitch limiter indicator (PLI) as a reference.

10.5.1.1 Flight Progress

A. Both pilots monitor flight plan vs. actual operation.

B. Update ETA as soon as it varies from planned arrival time by ± 3 minutes.

C. Contact dispatcher when actual operation differs from plan and causes arrival weight or fuel to be of concern.

10.5.1.2 Fuel

The PM normally performs fuel burn checks (actual vs. planned) as necessary.

10.5.2 ENROUTE POSITION REPORTS

The PM normally make enroute position reports as necessary (FOM).

10.5.3 ALTITUDE/ROUTING CHANGES

Any significant changes should be coordinated with the dispatcher to utilize all the information/equipment available.

10.6 DESCENT

10.6.1 DESCENT SPEED SCHEDULE

The following descent speed schedule presents three (3) descent speeds above 10,000 feet. The speed selected would be determined by operational requirements.

10.6.2 RATE

When a flight reports leaving an altitude, the PF maintains a descent rate consistent with ATC requirements and fuel conservation procedures.

10.6.2.1 Descent Ratio

The distance required for the descent is approximately three (3) miles per 1,000 feet (3 to 1).

As a guide, in level flight without speed brakes, it takes approximately ten (10) seconds and one (1) mile to decelerate each ten (10) knots of airspeed.

10.6.2.2 Factors

From a typical cruise altitude, the top-of-descent (TOD) point should be advanced two (2) miles for each ten (10) knots of tailwind during the descent, and by two (2) miles for each 1,000 feet of anti-ice use.

10.6.3 CONFIGURATION

Normally, descent is initiated with partial cruise thrust, at high altitude, in a clean configuration (no speed brakes). If necessary, use speed brakes or airspeed to correct the descent profile. For small adjustments, allow the airspeed to vary initially, using the speed brakes at a lower altitude if further speed adjustments are required.

10.6.4 PLANNING

Good descent planning is necessary to arrive at the desired altitude and correct speed & configuration. Plan all descents to arrive at traffic pattern altitude at flaps-up maneuvering speed about

- twelve (12) miles out for a straight-in approach or- eight (8) miles out for an abeam approach.

A good crosscheck is to be at 10,000 feet AFE, thirty (30) miles from the airport at 250 KIAS.

10.6.5 IN-RANGE REPORT

The PM normally accomplishes this report approximately ten (10) minutes before landing to inform the station the aircraft is in the local area.

10.6.6 APPROACH BRIEFING

A. After the arrival information becomes available, the PM should load the approach in the FMS, enter the landing V-speeds and configure their Display Control Panel (DCP) and notify the PF when they are finished.

B. The PF will transfer control of the aircraft to the PM, review the FMS, configure their DCP and brief the approach as outlined in the FOM.

C. Once the approach briefing is complete, the PF will resume control of the aircraft.

Chapter 11Approach

11.1 VISUAL APPROACH

11.1.1 POSITION ORIENTATION & ENERGY MANAGEMENT

A. Position orientation and energy management are critical to a stabilized visual approach. Plan to arrive on the downwind leg, or for straight-in approaches align with runway approximately 5 miles on final, at 1,500 feet AFE. Use speedbrakes for minor speed and vertical speed adjustments, and landing gear for larger adjustments.

B. Maintain stabilized approach rate of descent and flight parameters. If unable to maintain a stabilized approach, go around.

11.1.2 THREE TO ONE DESCENT PROFILE

This profile is based on an approximate 300 ft. (AFE) per NM reference, (3:1 Ratio). For example, 5NM, from touchdown would equate to 1500 ft. AFE. The objective is to constantly monitor the profile and take actions to maintain a stabilized approach.

11.1.3 ENERGY MANAGEMENT FACTORS

There are numerous factors such as aircraft weight, weather conditions, and a pilot’s “comfort zone” that will dictate energy management techniques for each approach. Regardless of the techniques employed, the decision to go around is not an indication of poor performance, but rather good judgement.

11.1.4 FLAP SETTINGS

A. The preferred landing flap setting is Flaps 5 as it requires less power than Flaps FULL and therefore reduces fuel consumption and makes the noise footprint smaller.

B. Flaps FULL should be considered when the runway braking conditions are less than FAIR.

11.1.5 NORMAL VISUAL APPROACH PROCEDURES

Use the most precise navigation and visual aids available (i.e., select and monitor an ILS to the landing runway). To assist in situational awareness, enter the best available approach to the landing runway into the FMS. If an approach is not available, enter the landing runway, then

OPS-07A Revision 02 15FEB2007

PAGE 11-2 ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

create an intercept leg to the runway with the final approach course heading. Autopilot and flight director use is at pilot discretion.

11.1.5.1 Downwind Leg or 5 NM Final

A. When entering the downwind fly at an altitude of 1,500 feet AFE and call for Flaps 1 at approximately 200 knots.

B. Reaching midfield on the downwind, call for Flaps 2 at approximately 180 knots.

C. Abeam the threshold, call for Flaps 3 at approximately 160 knots.

11.1.5.2 Base Leg or 3 NM Final

A. When turning the base leg, extend the landing gear, and call for the Landing Checklist.

B. Prior to turning final, select landing flaps. The PF will call for Flaps 5, and if desired, Flaps FULL, slow to VAPP and complete the Landing Checklist.

C. Landing Flaps should be selected prior to descending below 1,000 AFE.

11.1.5.3 Final Approach

Roll-out on runway centerline and maintain the appropriate approach speed. Make thrust changes as required to hold approach speed and desired rate of descent. Re-trim the stabilizer to maintain zero elevator forces on final. Stabilize the airplane on the selected approach airspeed with a constant rate of descent between 600 FPM and 800 FPM on the desired glide-path, in-trim.

11.1.5.4 Landing Approach Glide Path

The recommended landing approach glide path is approximately 2½° to 3°. Once the final approach is established, the aircraft configuration remains fixed and only small adjustments need to be made to the glide-path, approach speed, and trim. This results in the same approach profile under all conditions regardless of weather.

NO

TE

If the approach pattern must be extended, delay extending gear and selecting Flaps 3 until approaching the normal visual approach glide path.

11.1.8 ENGINE-OUT VISUAL APPROACH

An ILS approach is recommended for any engine-out approach and landing. It provides a stable framework and familiar cues for configuration, deceleration, and descent.

The Remainder Of This Page Intentionally Left Blank

OPS-07A Original 29AUG2005

PAGE 11-6 ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

11.2 INSTRUMENT PROCEDURES

11.2.1 GENERAL

The instrument approach begins when the airplane is over the initial approach fix for the procedure being used and ends when the airplane either contacts the runway or completes the transition to a missed approach.

11.2.1.1 Tune, Identify, and Monitor

Navaids must be tuned and identified prior to beginning an instrument approach. Crosscheck of navigation guidance must occur by both pilots continually during approaches. If instrument and/or navigation discrepancies become evident, abandon the approach, climb to the missed approach altitude but delay required turns until arriving at the published missed approach point (MAP).

11.2.1.2 Actions and Callouts

Actions and callouts have been created to specify “trigger” events and define the callouts and actions required by each pilot during approaches. They are constructed for training purposes to depict the ideal situation. However, ATC vectoring, the pilots own navigation, or a particular set of circumstances may preclude doing things exactly as specified. Alterations to the ideal must be accomplished when it makes sense.

11.2.2 PLANNING

A. Each type of approach and each approach to a particular runway, requires study and coordination

- to determine how it fits against the profile,- where should gear and flaps be extended,- when should airspeed be established,- when should timing begin,- how to establish a VDP where required, and- how to identify the MAP (missed approach point)

B. These are all questions that must be answered before commencing an approach.

11.2.3 AIRCRAFT APPROACH CATEGORY

A. Straight-In Approaches – Use Category C minimums.

See Operations Specifications C053.

B. Circling Maneuvers – Use Category C unless the approach airspeed is above 140 KIAS, then apply Category D minima.

See Operations Specifications C075

PAGE 11-7

11.2.4 CONTACT APPROACHES

Not authorized.

11.2.5 DETERMINING DECISION ALTITUDE/HEIGHT

CAT I decision altitude is based on the barometric altimeter.

11.2.6 SIDE-STEP MANEUVER

Side-step maneuver is authorized using published side-step minima.

11.2.6.1 Definition

A side-step maneuver is a visual maneuver accomplished by the pilot at the completion of an instrument approach to permit a straight-in landing on a parallel runway not more than 1,200 feet to either side of the runway to which the instrument approach was conducted.

11.2.6.2 Landing Minimums

Landing minimums to the adjacent runway will be higher than the minimums to the primary runway, but will normally be lower than the published circling minimums.

If a full procedure turn is required, select flaps 2 prior to the IAF outbound. Fly the appropriate maneuver speed. Approximately 30 seconds after station/ fix passage, commence procedure turn. A normal procedure turn outbound leg is 45 seconds to 1 minute. Some procedure turns are specified by a Procedural Track, as identified by a bold track in the Jeppesen Manual. These turns must be flown as depicted.

11.2.7 ENGINE FAILURE ON FINAL APPROACH

If an engine fails on final approach with the flaps in the landing configuration proceed as follows:

The PF should establish, as quickly as possible, the single-engine approach configuration. Engine-out approach procedures are identical to those for a two-engine approach, except Flaps 5 is always used for approach and landing.If able to complete a stabilized approach from this position, continue.

If not, carry out a go around.

11.3 PRECISION APPROACH PROCEDURES

Reference: FAR 121.579

11.3.1 GENERAL

The ERJ-170 is authorized to conduct Category I Precision approaches that provide lateral and vertical guidance to the runway threshold as described in Operations Specification C053.

11.3.1.1 ILS (CAT I)

ILS precision approach procedures are flown using the APP mode of the AFCS system.

11.3.1.2 LDA (Precision)

LDA approaches with minimums depicted as a DA(H) are precision approaches. Set up and fly these LDA approaches with the APP mode selected.

11.3.2 AUTOMATION

A. For all precision approaches, if the visibility is less than 3/4 miles or 4000 RVR, the Autopilot shall be engaged from at least the FAF until the “Landing” callout by the PF.

B. The PF selects the respective autopilot, in preparation of the approach.

C. The autopilot must be disengaged or turned no lower than 50 feet above the TDZE.

D. Before initiating an approach to landing with the Autopilot engaged, make sure the correct ILS identifier has been inserted on the FMS PROGRESS PAGE 1/3, Lines 5L and 5R.

The Remainder Of This Page Intentionally Left Blank

NO

TE If the autopilot is required by this

section but has been placed in the MEL list, the flight director MUST be operative.

When engaging the APP mode, be aware of the possi-bility of false course capture. Use all means available to verify correct ILS bearing to the runway

NO

TE

Failure to ensure the correct iden-tifier is inserted may result in the airplane's autopilot applying large-amplitude control inputs while following instrument landing system (ILS) guidance to runways that are not included on the FMS flight plan.

11.4 NON-PRECISION APPROACH PROCEDURES

Reference: FAR 121.579

11.4.1 GENERAL

The ERJ-170 is authorized to conduct Non-Precision approaches that provide lateral guidance to the runway threshold as described in Operations Specification C053.

11.4.2 AUTOMATION

A. Use of the autopilot reduces crew workload, particularly in respect to flight path control, and allows more time for management and monitoring the approach. Also, correct use of the AFCS altitude select feature can help prevent descents below authorized altitudes.

B. For all non-precision approaches, if the ceiling is less than 1000 feet and/or the visibility is less than 3 miles, the autopilot shall be engaged from at least the FAF until the “Landing” callout by the PF.

C. When the weather is above 1000 feet and the visibility is above 3 miles, the use of the autopilot is at the pilots discretion.

D. The PF selects the respective autopilot mode, in preparation of the approach.

E. The autopilot must be disengaged or turned off no lower than 50 feet below the MDA.

11.4.3 VOR APPROACHES

A. Since the AFCS (Automatic Flight Control System) is unable to directly capture and track a VOR signal, the PF will use the LNAV function through the FMS to fly VOR approaches. This will allow the AFCS to track the course for the procedure being flown.

B. Whenever utilizing the LNAV function to fly a VOR based procedure, the PM must have the raw data (VOR course deviation) displayed on their PFD as a backup to ensure correct tracking for the procedure.

NO

TE If the autopilot is required by this

section but has been placed in the MEL list, the flight director MUST be operative.

NO

TE When the autopilot is not engaged, the

maximum use of the flight director is strongly encouraged.

When engaging the NAV mode, be aware of the possi-bility of false course capture. Use all means available to verify correct inbound bear-ing to the runway

OPS-07A Revision 02 15FEB2007

PAGE 11-14 ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

C. If the LNAV signal differs from the VOR course deviation signal, the PF may elect to transition to a HDG mode and continue the approach by reference to the VOR raw data signal or execute a missed approach.

11.4.4 LATERAL GUIDANCE MODES

11.4.5 SETTING MINIMUMS

A. When the published MDA is not a multiple of 100’, round it up to the next 100’(e.g. 620’ is rounded up to 700’). When setting MDA, set the “adjusted” MDA in the altitude window using the GP. This number now becomes the “new” MDA for the approach. When an intermediate step-down altitude(s) is designated, set the GP altitude to the step-down altitude(s), then to the “adjusted” MDA. Exception: LDA with glideslope do not set intermediate altitudes.

11.4.6 DESCENT PROFILE

Once ALT is annunciated on the FMA, set the next lower intermediate stopped altitude until the MDA is set. The V/S for the descent should be managed to avoid level flight at intermediate altitudes and/or the MDA and places the aircraft at the MDA concurrent with the VDP or “calculated” VDP. The objective is to arrive at the MDA at a distance from the runway that permits a normal 3 degree profile without leveling off and maintain this profile to the TDZ.

11.4.6.1 Calculated VDP

A. If a non-precision approach does not contain a published VDP, a calculated VDP can be created for better situational awareness during the approach. The purpose of determining a ‘calculated’ VDP is to validate the aircraft is at the proper position on the approach corresponding to the point of intercept with a 3 degree profile to the touchdown zone. There are number of ways to calculate a VDP.

B. If using DME or FMS mileage the calculated VDP can be derived by determining the distance to the runway and using the 3 to 1 rule. For

each one mile from touchdown, the normal glide path is a multiple of 300 feet above the TDZ elevation.

C. For example, the MDA places you 480 feet above the TDZ elevation. That means the normal glide path intercepts the MDA approximately 1.5 miles from the arrival end of the runway. At this point during the approach you should be at the proper location to begin normal pitch and thrust adjustment to establish a 3 degree profile, (700-800 FPM) descent rate.

D. Alternative Method - Another method is based on timing and the normal descent rate for a 3 degree glide path. On a normal glide path the aircraft descends approximately 100 feet every nine (9) seconds of flight. For example, the MDA places you at 480 feet above the TDZ elevation. This means that it will take approximately 45 seconds (9 times 5), to descend from the MDA to the landing runway. In this example, the timing from the FAF and the MAP is two minutes and twenty seconds, (2:20). By subtracting the 45 seconds from the 2:20 you have determined the point of intercept for a 3 degree profile to the landing runway. At 1:35 seconds past the FAF you should be in a position to adjust the pitch and thrust for normal descent to the landing runway.

11.4.6.2 Target Vertical Speed

A. Non-precision approaches with a steep descent gradient may require approximately 1000 fpm to ensure reaching the MDA by the charted VDP position, or “calculated” VDP. By 1000 ft. AFE, the descent rate will be no greater than 1000 fpm. The descent rate should be stabilized at 700-800 fpm when transitioning to the visual flight phase.

B. The FPA vertical guidance mode is the suggested guidance mode for the descent to MDA. The FPA angle can be selected on the GP to match the CDP path as depicted on the Jeppesen Airways Approach Chart. This will provide a stabilized descent down the to VDP (charted or calculated) and ensure the airplane is positioned for a stabilized descent from MDA to landing.

11.4.6.3 MDA to Landing

After leveling off at the MDA (the MDA set on the GP is the minimum altitude for the approach), request the altitude window on the GP to the missed approach altitude after ALT (green) is displayed on the FMA, or after the landing callout is made. Maintain the MDA until a 3 degree glide path can be established to the TDZ. When leaving MDA, the autopilot must be disengaged. Complete the landing manually.

11.5 GPS APPROACH PROCEDURES

11.5.1 GENERAL

The ERJ-170 is authorized to conduct GPS approaches that provide lateral guidance to the runway threshold as described in Operations Specification C063.

FMS generated guidance can use a variety of sensor inputs of which GPS is primary. The GPS approach is a non-precision approach using an MDA based on LNAV minimums.

11.5.1.1 Jeppesen Approach Plate Terminology

A. Jeppesen approach plates may be labeled RNAV (GPS), RNAV, GPS, VOR or GPS, etc. In other words, if the title of the approach contains RNAV or GPS and the approach is stored in the nav database, then the approach may be flown.

B. The approach plate in the “PRE-APPROACH BRIEFING INFORMATION” section, will list approach requirements. For instance, “GPS or RNP - 0.3 required” means that if you have GPS or no GPS, but your RNP is 0.3 NM or less, you are legal to execute the approach. “DME/DME RNP - 0.3 not authorized” means that if you do not have GPS, you are not authorized to execute the approach.

11.5.2 REQUIRED NAVIGATIONAL PERFORMANCE (RNP)Currently, all published GPS approaches have an RNP of 0.3 NM which is depicted on the approach plate. Selection of the RNP is automatic in the ERJ-170 Honeywell FMS and will change from the terminal setting of “1.0” to the approach setting of “0.3” two miles from the final approach fix. RNP is displayed on the PFD HSI and on the PROG page (1).

Estimated Position Uncertainty (EPU) is displayed on the PROG page (1). If the EPU exceeds the RNP, a DGRAD message is displayed on the PFD HSI. By switching the SRC (the FMS source), the EPU may be within limits and the approach continued.

NO

TE

LNAV/VNAV minimums are not authorized.

PAGE 11-19

11.5.3 DISCONTINUING THE APPROACH

The approach must be discontinued if any of the following messages annunciate:

- the DGRAD message on the PFD

- GPS RAIM ABOVE LIMIT, GPS RAIM UNAVAILABLE, or GPS FAILED messages on the MCDU

11.6 CIRCLING APPROACHES

11.6.1 GENERAL

Republic Airlines is authorized to conduct circling approaches as described in Operations Specification C075 (d).

11.6.2 WEATHER MINIMUMS

A. The ceiling must be at least 1,000 feet or the charted minimum descent altitude for the procedure to be flown, whichever is greater.

B. The visibility must be at least 3 miles or the charted visibility minimums for the procedure to be flown, whichever is greater.

11.6.3 MINIMUM DESCENT ALTITUDE

The minimum descent altitude shall be no lower than 1,000 AFE or the charted minimum descent altitude for the procedure to be flown, whichever is greater.

11.7 ENGINE OUT APPROACHES

11.7.1 PROCEDURE

Engine-out approach procedures are identical to those for a two-engine approach, except Flaps 5 is always used for approach and landing.

If compliance with the published missed approach procedure is in doubt, notify ATC prior to commencing the approach.

NO

TE

The SRC (the FMS source) may be switched to maintain the EPU within limits. After accomplishing this switch and the ensuring DGRAD message is not annunciated, the approach may be continued.

11.8 NO SLAT / FLAP LANDING

11.8.1 NO SLAT / FLAP LANDING PROCEDURE

A. The (FLAP or SLAT) FAIL checklist should be accomplished as soon as possible and the aircraft configured as early as possible prior to commencing the approach.

B. Always request the longest available runway as landing performance may be significantly degraded.

C. The flightcrew should always use the highest level of automation and all available resources including ILS and VASI/PAPI lighting to ensure a stabilized approach.

D. As soon as the aircraft has intercepted the glide path (either electronic or visual), slow the aircraft to VAPP.

E. Entering the landing runway into the FMS will provide distance/altitude guidance for visual approaches using the 300 foot per nautical mile rule.

11.9 LANDING NOTIFICATION

After selecting gear down, the PM will give the two (2) high/lo chime signal to signal to the flight attendants that landing is imminent.

11.10 LANDING CALLOUT

11.10.1 FOR INSTRUMENT AND VISUAL APPROACHES

The PF may call “Landing” when:

- the aircraft is cleared to land- the aircraft is in position to land safely, and- the runway environment will remain in sight until touchdown.

11.10.2 PRIOR TO THE “LANDING” CALLOUT

All approach callouts will be made in accordance with the procedures outlined in this manual. The PM will callout any visual cues associated with the runway (e.g., strobe/approach lights, threshold location -left/right/ahead) until the PF calls out “Landing.”

The Remainder Of This Page Intentionally Left Blank

Chapter 12Go Around, Missed Approach & Landing

12.1 GO AROUND

12.1.1 PREPARATION

Maintain “Mode Awareness” by monitoring the FMA to determine the engaged pitch and roll modes.

12.1.2 MANUAL VS. AUTOMATIC GO AROUND PROCEDURES

Go around procedures maximize the use of the automation. Pilots must remain mentally prepared to execute a F/D or raw data go around in the event of equipment failure or malfunction.

12.1.3 TOGA SWITCH

All go around procedures begin by pressing either TOGA switch. The TOGA switch engages the go-around mode which automatically provides go-around guidance and thrust management.

The flight director symbology are automatically activated when GA mode is activated.

12.1.4 THRUST AND CONFIGURATION REQUIREMENTS

12.1.4.1 1000 feet AFE and Below

All go arounds initiated below 1000 feet AFE must follow the go around thrust and configuration requirements of this section. The TOGA functions of the AFCS system and the autothrottle will operate.

12.1.4.2 Above 1000 feet AFE

Thrust usage and configuration requirements are at the pilot’s discretion. For example, while descending through 2000 feet with gear down and flaps 3, ATC asks for a right turn to downwind for additional spacing, expect a turn to final in 2 miles. The pilot may elect to level off, keep the gear and flaps extended and complete the configuration after re-established inbound.

NO

TE Pressing the TOGA switch will not

cause the autopilot or autothrottle to engage if is was previously dis-engaged.

OPS-07A Revision 02 15FEB2007

PAGE 12-2 ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

12.1.4.3 Thrust Levers

Normal thrust lever operation is with the autothrottle function engaged. Thrust levers may be set manually with the autothrottle function disengaged to either the TOGA or maximum thrust positions.

12.1.4.4 Flight Director Go Around.

Flap retraction is accomplished by reference to the indicated airspeed display. Retract flaps at green dot plus 10 kts.

12.1.4.5 Raw Data Go Around.

Flap retraction is accomplished identically to Flight Director Go Around.

12.1.5 EXECUTING THE GO AROUND

A. Sufficient visual cues must exist to continue the approach below DH or MDA. If visual cues are lost after DH or MDA due to shallow fog, snow flurries, or heavy precipitation, the pilot shall immediately initiate a go-around and fly the published missed approach procedure as required by the FARs. Go arounds, when properly executed, involve little loss of altitude below the altitude at which the go around is “started”.

B. Missed approach procedures for straight-in approaches rarely present a problem. Conducting a missed approach when not established on a final approach course should be as follows:

- If a go around is required at any time while maneuvering in the traffic pattern and visual conditions cannot be maintained, perform a climbing turn toward the runway of intended landing (this maneuver will position the aircraft over the airport and climbing).

- When over the airport and climbing, turn (in the shortest direction) to the missed approach fix and proceed with published procedure.

12.1.6 GO AROUND MANEUVER

A. To initiate the go around press either TOGA switch. If an automatic approach has been flown, the autopilot and autothrottle can remain engaged. If the approach has been flown manually, rotate smoothly to a 12° pitch attitude and then follow flight director commands. Verify thrust levers move to TOGA thrust.

B. Verify the GA modes are annunciated on the FMA. The GA pitch mode initially commands a go around attitude and then transitions to speed as the rate of climb increases. This speed is normally between VAC and VAC + 15 knots. The GA roll mode maintains existing ground track.

NO

TE If the autothrottles are engaged

during go-around, the thrust set-ting will remain in TO/GA setting until a vertical mode such as FLCH or VS has been selected.

OPS-07AOriginal 29AUG2005

ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

PAGE 12-3

C. Accomplish the missed approach procedure. If a turning missed approach procedure is required, accomplish the missed approach procedure through gear up before initiating the turn. Delay further flap retraction until initial maneuvering is complete and a safe altitude and appropriate speed are attained.

D. At 1,000 feet RA or obstacle clearance altitude (OCA) (whichever is higher), accelerate to flap retraction speed by selecting FLCH and 210 knots.

E. As the airspeed increases, retract flaps at green dot plus 10 knots, and complete the After Takeoff checklist.

F. After flaps are retracted verify desired altitude is displayed in PFD.

12.2.1 ENGINE OUT GO AROUND MANEUVER

A. If a go around is required, press a TOGA switch to apply go around thrust to the GA N1 limit.

B. Select Flaps 2 and rotate toward 8° pitch attitude and then follow flight director commands. Control yaw with rudder and trim. Some rudder pedal pressure may be required even with full rudder trim.

C. Verify the GA pitch and roll modes are annunciated on the FMA and ADI.

D. At a positive rate of climb, call for gear up. The flight director commands a pitch attitude that will maintain the selected speed (VAC to VAC +15). With an engine inoperative, the resulting vertical speed will depend on temperature, available thrust and airplane gross weight. The GA roll mode maintains a ground track.

E. Call for autopilot engagement and HDG SEL at or above 400′ RA, unless a specific Engine Failure - Missed Approach procedure requires a turn prior to 400′ RA.

F. Advise ATC of your intentions. Either fly a straight-out missed approach or, when published, fly the specific Engine Failure - Missed Approach procedure.

G. If a turning missed approach procedure is required, accomplish the missed approach procedure through gear up before initiating the turn. Delay further flap retraction until initial maneuvering is complete and a safe altitude and appropriate speed are attained.

12.2.2 ACCELERATION AND CLEAN-UP

A. At 1,000 ft. or at specific Engine Failure - Missed Approach procedure altitude (if higher), the PF will

- call for “Flight Level Change, VFS”,- accelerate, and - retract the flaps at green dot plus 10 kts.

B. The PM will select the proper flap setting when requested.

C. At the last flap retraction, the PF will respond “Flaps UP” and the PM will retract the flaps. As the flaps are retracted and the aircraft accelerates, adjust the rudder pedal position to maintain the control wheel level and apply trim to relieve rudder pedal pressure.

12.2.3 MAX CONTINUOUS THRUST

ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

PAGE 13-1

Chapter 13Landing

13.1 NORMAL LANDING

13.1.1 VERTICAL GUIDANCE

As with any aircraft, the key to a successful landing is to make a stabilized approach by using:

- glideslope (ILS),- glidepath (vertical guidance), and/or- visual cues (VASI, PAPI, etc.).

By doing this, the aircraft should cross the landing threshold at a height of approximately 50 feet, which corresponds to a touchdown point of 1,000 feet. The acceptable touchdown range is 750 to 1,250 feet from the runway threshold.

13.1.2 THRUST

The PF should decide when to retard the thrust levers considering all external circumstances (e.g., landing configuration, aircraft speed versus target, speed trend arrow, aircraft acceleration/deceleration rate, aircraft height versus descent path, aircraft rate of closure with the ground, gusts, shears, outside perception of the runway, etc.). Unless unusual conditions dictate otherwise, the thrust levers should be at IDLE prior to starting the flare at approximately 20 feet.

13.1.3 FLARE

A concerted flare is neither required nor desirable. A slight increase in pitch (1-2°), at approximately 20 feet, is all that is needed to check the rate of descent. This will produce a consistent touchdown point, while protecting against a tailstrike and excessive float. The landing should occur without a long flare.

NO

TE

Do not attempt to touchdown with the thrust above idle.

OPS-07A Original 29AUG2005

PAGE 13-2 ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

13.1.4 TOUCHDOWN

After main gear touchdown, begin to smoothly fly the nose wheel onto the runway by relaxing aft control column pressure. Control column movement forward of neutral should not be required.

See also Section 13.2, "Landing Irregularities".

13.1.5 GROUND SPOILERS

The ground spoilers “spoil” the lift from the wings, which places the airplane weight on the main landing gear, providing excellent brake effectiveness.

13.1.5.1 Effectiveness

Unless ground spoilers are extended after touchdown, braking effectiveness may be reduced initially as much as 60 percent, since very little weight will be on the wheels and brake application may cause rapid anti-skid modulation.

13.1.5.2 Auto-Deploy

Normally, ground spoilers will extend automatically.

13.1.6 NOSEWHEEL & RUDDER INPUTS AFTER TOUCHDOWN

13.1.6.1 Nosewheel

If the nosewheel is not promptly lowered to the runway, braking and steering capability are significantly degraded and no drag benefit will be gained.

13.1.6.2 Rudder

Rudder control is effective to approximately 60 knots. Rudder pedal steering is sufficient for maintaining directional control during the roll-out.

13.1.6.3 Nosewheel Steering

Do not use the nosewheel steering tiller until reaching taxi speed. In a crosswind, displace the control wheel into the wind to maintain wings-level which aids directional control.

Pitch rates sufficient to cause airplane structural damage can occur if large nose down control column movement is made prior to nose wheel touchdown.

Nose wheel steering tiller should not be used above normal taxi speeds (20 knots).

OPS-07AOriginal 29AUG2005

ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

PAGE 13-3

13.1.7 REVERSE THRUST

The importance of establishing the desired reverse thrust as soon as possible after touchdown can not be overemphasized. Immediate initiation of reverse thrust at main gear touchdown and full reverse thrust will minimizes brake temperatures, tire and brake wear, and reduces stopping distance on very slippery runways. Use of minimum reverse thrust will almost double the brake energy requirements and can result in brake temperatures much higher than normal.

Reverse thrust is most effective at high speeds.

13.1.7.1 Application

After touchdown and when the thrust levers are retarded to idle, lift the reverse thrust triggers on the thrust reverser levers. Select maximum reverse thrust consistent with runway conditions and modulate reverse thrust as required.

If an engine surges during reverse thrust operation, quickly select reverse idle on both engines.

13.1.7.2 Callouts

The PM will call out:

- the number of green REV annunciations, e.g. “TWO REVERSE”- any limits being approached and/or exceeded- any other abnormalities- “80 KNOTS” and “60 KNOTS” to assist the PF in programming the

reverse thrust

13.1.7.3 Reduction

Maintain up to maximum reverse thrust until the airspeed approaches 80 knots. Then start reducing the reverse thrust so the reverse levers are moving down at a rate commensurate with the deceleration rate of the airplane. Reverse idle should be reached by 60 knots, then to full down after the engines have decelerated to idle.

13.1.7.4 Engine Inoperative

Reverse thrust may be used with one engine inoperative. Use normal reversing procedures and techniques. If directional control becomes a concern during deceleration, return the operating engine lever to reverse idle detent.

13.1.8 BRAKING

The following procedure will give optimum braking for all runway conditions:

- The pilot’s seat and rudder pedals should be adjusted so it is possible to apply maximum braking with full rudder deflection.

- After main gear touchdown, smoothly apply a constant brake pedal pressure for the desired braking. For short or slippery runways, use full brake pedal.

- Pumping the brakes will degrade braking effectiveness. Keep a steadily increasing brake pressure applied, allowing the anti-skid system to function at its optimum.

- The anti-skid system will stop the airplane for all runway conditions in a shorter distance than is possible with either anti-skid off or brake pedal modulation.

- The anti-skid system adapts pilot-applied brake pressure to runway conditions by sensing an impending skid condition and adjusting the brake pressure to each individual wheel for maximum braking effort. When brakes are applied on a slippery runway, several skid cycles will occur before the anti-skid system establishes the right amount of brake pressure for the most effective braking.

- Do not attempt to modulate, pump, or improve the braking by any other special techniques.

- If the pilot modulates the brake pedals, the anti-skid system is forced to readjust the brake pressure to establish optimum braking. During this re-adjustment time, braking efficiency is lost.

- Do not release the brake pedal pressure until the airplane speed has been reduced to a safe taxi speed.

13.1.8.1 Anti-Skid Inoperative

When the anti-skid system is inoperative, the following procedures apply:

- Ensure the nosewheel is on the ground and the speed brakes are extended (assume automatic deployment unless appropriate EICAS messages are displayed) before applying the brakes.

- Initiate wheel braking using very light pedal pressure and increase pressure as ground speed decreases.

- Apply steady pressure. Do not pump the pedals.

Anti-skid-off braking requires even greater care during light-weight landings.

13.1.8.2 Brake Cooling.

A series of taxi-back or stop-and-go landings, without additional in-flight cooling, can cause excessive brake temperature. The energy absorbed by the brakes from each landing is cumulative.

13.1.9 LANDING ACTIONS AND CALLOUTS

13.1.10 CROSSWIND LANDING 13.1.10.1 Methods

Four methods of performing crosswind landings are presented. They are the sideslip, de-crab technique (with removal of crab in flare), crab technique for slippery runways, and combination crab/sideslip technique. Whenever a crab is maintained during a crosswind approach, offset the cockpit on the upwind side of centerline so the main gear touches down on the runway centerline.

13.1.10.2 Sideslip

The sideslip crosswind technique aligns the aircraft with the extended runway course so main gear touchdown occurs on the runway centerline.

The initial phase of the approach to landing is flown using the crab method to correct for drift. Prior to the flare, the airplane centerline is aligned on or parallel to the runway centerline. Downwind rudder is used to align the longitudinal axis to the desired track as aileron is applied into the wind to prevent drift. A steady sideslip is established, with opposite rudder and low wing into the wind to hold the desired course.

Touchdown is accomplished with the upwind wheels touching just before the downwind wheels. Overcontrolling the roll axis must be avoided because over-banking could cause the engine nacelle or outboard wing flap to contact the runway.

Properly coordinated, this maneuver will result in nearly fixed rudder and aileron control positions during the final phase of the approach, touchdown, and beginning of the landing roll.

PAGE 13-6 ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

13.1.10.3 De-Crab During Flare

The objective of this technique is to maintain wings-level throughout the approach, flare, and touchdown. On final approach, a crab angle is established with the wings-level to maintain the desired course. Just prior to touchdown while flaring the airplane, downwind rudder is applied to eliminate the crab and align the airplane with the runway centerline.

As rudder is applied, the upwind wing will sweep forward, developing roll due to lifting forces. Hold the wings level with simultaneous application of aileron control into the wind. The touchdown is made with cross-controls and both gear touching down simultaneously. Throughout the touchdown phase, upwind aileron application is utilized to keep the wings level.

13.1.10.4 Touchdown in Crab on Slippery Runways

On very slippery runways, the crosswind crab angle may be maintained to touchdown. This will reduce drift toward the downwind side when touching down. Since the aircraft does not have to be de-crabbed, pilot workload is reduced. Proper rudder and upwind aileron must be maintained to ensure directional control is maintained.

On slippery runways, crosswind capability is a function of runway surface conditions, airplane loading, and pilot technique.

13.1.10.5 Combining Crab and Sideslip

It may be necessary to combine crab and sideslip during strong crosswinds. Main gear touchdown is made with the wing low and crab angle applied. As the upwind gear touches first, a slight increase in downwind rudder is applied to straighten the nose. A simultaneous application of aileron is applied to maintain wings-level.

13.2 LANDING IRREGULARITIES

13.2.1 WING/ENGINE STRIKES DURING LANDING

Wing tip or engine nacelle strike occurs if bank exceeds 18° at touchdown (16° with gear struts compressed).

13.2.2 TAIL STRIKE DURING LANDING

Tail strikes are more frequent during landings than takeoffs. In fact, tail strikes occur more frequently during landings by a factor of two to one.

Based upon information gathered from tail strike occurrences, deviation from the normal landing maneuver above, is the main cause of tail strikes. The mistakes most commonly made are:

1) allowing the airspeed to decrease well below VAP,

2) prolonged hold-off for a smooth touchdown, and3) starting to flare the aircraft too high above the runway.

13.2.3 FLARING TOO HIGH

Of these three commonly made mistakes, flaring the aircraft too high above the runway has the greatest potential for a tail strike and resulting damage. When the flare is started too high above the runway, airspeed will decrease below VAP causing the PF to compensate. When placed in this situation, the tendency is to continue to increase pitch in an effort to arrest the excessive sink rate. The correct action to take is to immediately lower the pitch attitude and fly the aircraft to the runway before the airspeed dissipates any further. While the touchdown will be firm, taking this corrective action will prevent a tail strike.

13.2.4 BOUNCING AT TOUCHDOWN

Do not allow the pitch attitude to increase, particularly following a firm touchdown with a high pitch rate.

A. In case of a light bounce

- Maintain the pitch attitude and complete the landing while keeping the thrust at idle.

B. In case of a high bounce

- Maintain the pitch attitude and initiate a go around.

- When safely established in the go around, accomplish normal go around procedures.

NO

TE

Do not try to avoid a second touch-down during the go around. Should the aircraft touchdown, the impact will be soft enough to prevent dam-age to the aircraft provided pitch attitude is maintained.

A landing should not be attempted immediately after a high bounce.

OPS-07A Original 29AUG2005

PAGE 13-8 ERJ-170 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

13.3 REJECTED LANDING

13.3.1 REJECTED LANDING MANEUVER

The rejected landing maneuver is identical to the go around maneuver. Apply go around thrust and select go around flaps while rotating to go around attitude. Retract the landing gear after a positive rate of climb is established and retract the flaps on schedule at a safe altitude.

13.4 ENGINE FAILURE ON FINAL

13.4.1 GENERAL

If an engine failure occurs on final approach, there are certain considerations and procedures that apply regardless of whether the approach is a visual, nonprecision, precision, or autoland approach.

If an engine failure should occur on final approach with the flaps in the landing position, adequate thrust is available to maintain the approach profile using landing flaps, if desired.

If an engine failure should occur on final approach, it is usually preferable to continue the approach using Flaps 5.

If a go around from a Flaps 5 configuration is required, maintain the additional 20 knots and retract flaps to Flaps 2. Continue with procedures as discussed in section “Engine Out Go-Around.

End of Chapter

After reverse thrust is initiated, a full stop land-ing must be made. Factors dictating this are five seconds are required for a reverser to stow in the forward thrust position and possibility exists a reverser may not stow in the forward thrust position.

15.1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

ACARS is a data link system that allows character-oriented messages to be exchanged between ground stations and the aircraft. Messages are divided into two groups:

- Addressed to or by crewmembers: data link requests or free text reports;

- Automatically sent: reports of flight data, performance data and routine events.

Communication to ground stations are made through VDR 3 channel (COM 3). The MCDU provides the interface with ACARS applications to crewmembers.
