Failures• “Onside” COM for that panel as Primary
• Pilot – COM1• Co-Pilot – COM2
• Whoever is the CO-PILOT selected position
• Additional Receive only option• Pilot – COM2• Co-Pilot – COM1
PFD/MFD Failures• Reversionary Mode – MFD reverts to PFD in the event of total PFD failure
• Individual Component failure – PFD displays invalid/incorrect information with a RED X
• Reference System• Air Data Computer• Integrated Avionics (including Engine Analyzer)• Engine Analyzer only
• Audio Panel specifics
• “Onside” COM for that panel as Primary• Pilot – COM1• Co-Pilot – COM2
Sometimes we DO just have to use the brute force method!
PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!
