elcome to LDS Tutorial Flight 003 bound from Copenhagen to London. Our fully loaded 767-300ER is packed with 264 Danish football fans (in an advanced state of excitement) on their way to watch Denmark play England in an international friendly. Though they are virtual passengers, they can almost be heard chanting Vi er rd, vi er hvid, vi er Dansk dynamisk through the locked, bolted and secured ightdeck door. The LDS team is made up of avid ightsimmers. Some members of the team are licensed to y real aircraft, while some members of the team (the whizzo technical advisors) get to y the real 767 for a living. They have read through this document, and they are satisied that the information we have provided is credible, and likely to get the arm-chair pilot from point A to B with a reasonable expectation of success. They arent going to let any of us y their real 67 just yet, but were hoping if they get stuck with home computer issues, we may be able to barter a ride or two... Some of the procedures that were outlined for LDS001 and 002 have been expanded, this time with a European avour. The bar has been raised slightly (enabling options like real IRS alignment), while continuing to offer general guidelines to effectively y the Level-D 767. This is not the denitive guide: that document would encompass several thousand pages, and enlist the user to devote thousands of hours of study. ATC interaction (which was provided by VATUK controllers during several test ights into Heathrow) has been added to this ight. Flying online adds a level of unpredictability to the experience that is difcult to reproduce with the default FS9 ATC. When ying online ATC may delay your departure, ask you to change your heading for trafc, or (more likely) to enter the hold at Lambourne. If you are interested in learning more about ying online, check out the Resources page. Print this document (colour is recommended but b&w works) and complete the sections in chronological order. Save a situation le after each completed section so that you may review any section at a later date. When reloading the saved situation les, you may encounter a hiccup or two, but within a short time (say 20 seconds), the aircraft should return to stable ight. The Level-D 767 is a complex simulation. It will take you many hours to master the aircraft. While this tutorial serves a useful purpose, we recommend that you read the manual in its entirety to gain a deeper understanding of the LDS767. The Level-D forum is also a great resource if your looking for support, or need an answer that isnt offered within these pages. Its bound to be an interesting ight, Captain: our passengers are a lively bunch and the ight attendants patience will be sorely tested. Keep your seatbelt buckled and ightdeck door secured, for as the Danish say: Sikre jeres seatbelt! Vi er i nemlig en bumper kre! The LDS Beta Team LEVEL-D SIMULATIONS

When our real world Captain and First Ofcer arrive at the ight deck, they are usually greeted with a cold and dark panel state. In other words, the aircraft is totally shut down. If youre interested in starting your workday from scratch like our real world compatriots, its good practise to save your own situation le. Once that le is saved, you can then quickly import the panel settings or every departure location. It is a simple and efcient way to start every ight. 1. From the CREATE A FLIGHT screen/menu, choose any Level-D 767 aircraft. No need to worry about location, weather, time & season or fuel. Choose Fly Now. The simulator will load with the engines running.
1. Choose the Panel setup you want to run: Include Virtual Cockpit VC with Wing View and Reective Windows No Virtual Cockpit
(Choose to enable or disable the High Resolution VC Gauge Option if you are running the Virtual Cockpit)
2. Select the type of ight: Empty, Short Haul, Long Haul. 3. Select Load type: Empty, Random or Full. Click on one of diagrams depicting seating preferences. 4. Choose your load of cargo. Click on the Cargo Load button. This will bring up the cargo page. You can raise and lower the amounts of cargo in the cargo holds. Click on the Passenger Load button to RETURN to the main page. 5. Propose the amount of fuel you will need for your planned ight. Press on the MINUS or PLUS buttons to raise and lower the fuel. The proposed amount will not be placed into the aircraft.cfg le - you will still have to manually load the fuel once the ight simulator loads. Setting fuel load returns %MAC and CG for TO trim and allows proper weight/balance calculations. The Conguration Manager will display incorrect weights in red. Do not exceeds these limits: Max Takeoff Weight 408000 lbs 185454 kg Max Zero Fuel Weight 288000 lbs 130909 kg 6. Note these numbers. Remember: The conguration manager records the ZFW and Takeoff Weight within the aircraft.cfg. It it does not record the fuel amount. 7. Save the settings. A loadsheet text le will be generated with this information (767loadsheet.txt) and is saved to the Aircraft>LVLD_763 folder. You may print the le later using Notepad. Press OK to save. 8. Exit the Conguration Manager.

2. Shut down the aircraft. Follow the Shutdown & Complete Shutdown Checklist(s) on page 24 of this tutorial. Once youre satised with the panel state... 3. Save the ight. ALT+F, Save Flight, or use the semicolon key < ; >. The Save Flight dialog will appear. Save the Title of Flight as Cold & Dark. Choose OK. Thats it. The le has been saved, and the NEXT TIME you go ying... 1. From the CREATE A FLIGHT screen/menu set the aircraft, exact location, weather, time & season, fuel, etc. Choose Fly Now! After the simulator loads (with the engines will be running)... 2. From the LEVEL-D menu select PANEL--->IMPORT PANEL DATA FROM A FLIGHT, and select the Cold & Dark le. 3. Choose IMPORT and press OK. 4. The panel (and aircraft) will revert to a cold and dark state (the exact settings you have saved), and you can begin your workday just like the professionals do.

Located just eight kilometres southeast of the Copenhagen city centre, Copenhagen Airport is in Kastrup, a town on the island of Amager. The airport is Scandinavias main airport, i.e. the transfer airport for air trafc between other parts of the world and the many national and regional airports in Scandinavia and the area south of the Baltic Sea. In terms of passengers, the three largest airlines serving Copenhagen Airport are SAS, Maersk Air & Sterling European. Direct connections are available from Copenhagen Airport to a total of 127 destinations worldwide, seven of which are in Denmark, 20 are in other Scandinavian countries, 78 are in other European countries and 22 are intercontinental airports. Statistics Number of operations in 2004 (take-offs and landings): 272,518 Number of passengers in 2004: 19 million Cargo volumes in 2003: 335,731 tonnes Areas and runway systems The 3 runways divide the airport area, which is approximately 11.8 square kilometres, into 4 geographical sections: The North Area, which contains the three passenger terminals, a railway station, a car park, a police station and other administrative functions, the Gate Gourmet catering facilities, the SAS Cargo Center and SASs technical area, the lastmentioned with four large hangars. The East Area, which includes cargo terminals for DHL and SAS, the Veterinary and Customs Centre, forwarding agencies and the LSG Sky Chefs catering facilities. The South Area, in which technical bases for Maersk Air, My Travel, Sterling, Danish Air Transport and North Star are located. The West Area contains Naviair (air trafc mangement) and Copenhagen Airports technical maintenance facilities. The runway system consists of a main system (direction 22/04) with two parallel runways for take-offs and landings (3500 and 3300 metres long) and a 2800-metre cross-runway (direction 12/30). The runway used most frequently for landings (22L) contains equipment that makes landing possible even under conditions of extremely poor visibility (CAT 3). Runway 04 has equipment to permit landings under CAT2 conditions, the other runways are CAT1. The main runway system, with aircraft approaches and takeoffs mainly taking place offshore, is used for about 95% of all ights. The maximum capacity of the runway system is 83 operations (take-offs and landings) per hour. IATA code: CPH // ICAO code: EKCH -7 -
Heathrow is the worlds busiest international airport. Regarded as the hub of the aviation world, over 90 airlines have made Heathrow their base. Key facts Opened:1946 Runways: Two Terminals: Four, with T5 under construction Destinations: 190 Air transport movements per year: 469,144 Passengers per year: 66.9 million Total retail space: 48,000m2 Rail link: Heathrow Express, 15 minutes to London Employs: 71,000 (4,000 are BAA employees) Air cargo per year: 1.3 million tonnes Arriving Aircraft There are three stages to the arrivals approach. When aircraft rst arrive in UK airspace, they are held in queues, called stacks. There are two to the south of the Airport and two to the north. On the last stage, aircraft are established on the Instrument Landing System (ILS) for the runway being used. Once established on the ILS there is a set rate of descent. Between these two stages there are no set routes or heights; aircraft are individually directed by Air Trafc Control (ATC) and join the ILS at a variety of points. Heathrow has four Instrument Landing Systems (ILS) for both main runways for easterly and westerly approaches. (The cross-runway does not have an ILS.) These use radio beams to guide pilots into land. Since radio beams operate in straight lines, once aircraft are using the ILS they will also be travelling in a straight line until they touch down. Aircraft should not normally be directed by ATC to join the ILS during the day below 2500 feet or at less than 7.5 nautical miles from touchdown, and during the night below 3000 feet or at less than 10 nautical miles from touchdown. However, as always, the direction of air trafc is for the professional judgement of ATC. Once established on the ILS, aircraft will be at set heights at any particular point. In the stack aircraft will be at a minimum of 7000ft normally. Between the two stages aircraft will be at a variety of heights depending on how ATC direct them and the point at which they will nally join the ILS. Landing Charges The landing charges at Heathrow are related to the ICAO aircraft noise certication and maximum take-off weight of the aircraft. BAA Heathrow encourages the use of quieter aircraft through surcharges and reductions on its base landing fees. For example, a noisier Chapter 3 high aircraft is subject to a base landing charge plus 50% whereas a quieter Chapter 3 low one receives a discount on the base landing charge. Through this regime, there is continued economic incentive for airlines to use quieter aircraft. IATA code: LHR // ICAO code: EGLL
Okay, lets get this bird powered up and rock and roll. We will use the Normal Procedures & Checklist as our guide for this tutorial, which is written with the ow concept. It is available in the Level-D Simulations 767-300 Operating Manual. Before we get to the ow, our rst order of business is to get the power on, and allow the IRUs to ALIGN. So, open up the OVERHEAD PANEL <SHIFT><5> or OVHD button and begin the...
Depicted below are the left sections of the Overhead Panel. The aircraft is being powered by the APU and the IRUs are aligning. Note the position of the switches on the Hydraulic Panel.

Press ON when AVAIL light illuminates. Ground Power is not essential if you are doing a quick pre-ight. You can OMIT this step and move directly to start the APU.
The position lights are the red, green and white lights found at the tips of the wings.
An alignment period is required before the IRUs can supply data. An initial alignment of 10 minutes is required when moving the IRS Mode Selector from OFF to NAV. This is known as a full alignment. During this period the IRUs are oriented to true north and establish their current position. The aircrafts known present position (latitude/longitude) must be entered within the 10 minute alignment period. This entry is normally made using the FMC POS INIT page. Additionally, the aircraft must be on the ground and cannot be moved during alignment. An alignment failure is indicated by the ALIGN lights ashing on the IRS panel. In this case the alignment must be restarted. A successful alignment is indicated by the ALIGN lights extinguishing. Open the FMC & enter the Aircraft position. <SHIFT><Z> Feature Pressing this key combination displays the aircrafts exact position across the top of the simulator window. The following is an example of what is displayed and what should be entered into the CDU scratchpad: The coordinates displayed by FS2004 need to

be formatted into the format acceptable to the FMC. .57 is rounded to .6. Also, the E coordinate of 12 is entered as 012. This is important since entering E1238.9 generates an error message. Adding a leading 0 is not required when the longitude is 100 or above. For example, W101*46.61 would be formatted as W10146.6 in the FMC. -8 -
Overhead Preparation
The Cockpit Preparation ow starts with the upper left hand corner of the overhead panel <SHIFT><5>. Each overhead panel system is checked in an downward ow beginning at the top of each overhead panel column. After the overhead is checked, the ight instruments and AFDS panel are checked from left to right. From the AFDS panel, follow down the EICAS screens to preight the pedestal systems.

Lets get our performance data into the FMC. Press RTE (FK). ACT RTE 1 (1/2) page is displayed. Press 6R LSK (PERF INIT). The PERF INIT (1/1) page will be displayed. Enter the Zero Fuel Weight (ZFW) 126.0 (or 277.9 if youre using imperial measure) into the Scratchpad. Press 3L LSK (ZFW). The scratchpad entry of 126.0 will appear. The GR WT (144.2 or 317.9) will appear automatically at 1L LSK. Enter the Reserves of 3.3 (or 6.6) into the Scratchpad Press 4L LSK (RESERVES). The pad entry of 3 (or 6.6) will transfer to 4L LSK. Enter the Cruise Altitude of 36,000 (360, FL360, or 36000) feet into the Scratchpad.
Press PREV PAGE (FK). TAKEOFF REF (1/2) page. We will now enter our aps settings, CG Trim and compute an Assumed Temperature - Reduced Thrust Takeoff. The Level-D Perfomance Manuals (KG & LBS) les are available within the Perf Manuals folder of this download. Enter 5 for the takeoff aps setting. Press 1L LSK. The entry will transfer to 1L LSK (FLAPS). Enter 21 for the %MAC setting. Press 3L LSK. The scratchpad entry of 21 will transfer to 3L LSK (CG TRIM). A trim setting of 3.9 (or 4.0) will autoll to the left of the entered data. Enter 60 for the reduced THRUST setting. Press 2L LSK. The entry will transfer to 2L (THRUST).
Press 1R LSK (CRZ ALT). 360 will transfer to 1R LSK. Enter the Cost Index of 90 into the Scratchpad.
Press 2R LSK (COST INDEX). The scratchpad entry of 90 will transfer to 2R LSK. Our performance initialisation is complete.
Values can range from 0 to 9999. Entering 0 gives maximum range airspeed and minimum fuel consumption. Higher values increase the cruise speed and fuel consumption for the calculated ECON speed.
Derated Takeoff
Tero Partanen (the Finnish Flash) explains how to decifer the performance table(s) included in the Perf Manuals folder, offering this example (your result(s) may vary): Runway 22R: 3600m 11,000 feet Temperature: 4C QNH: 1003 Wind: 260/12 (10 kt headwind) First, calculate the MTOM (Maximum Takeoff Mass). This will determine whether we can derate the takeoff. In the 11,000ft FLAP5 table there are 3 and 5 rows, which both indicate 197.4t for MTOM. As the QNH is 1003, its 10mb BELOW 1013, and thus we subtract 10 x 100kg from MTOM to get the regulated weight of 196.4t. However, the max structural mass is 185068 kg, so that will be limiting. Finally, we see if our TOM (142.6t) is below that (and it clearly is), so we ARE allowed to reduce thrust. Next, we get the assumed temperature. First, we need the assumed TOM, which we can get from the actual TOM (142.6t) with the QNH correction. Now we apply the correction in a reverse sense and add that 1000kg to get the assumed TOM of 143.6t. Now we look at the table again, and see what temp is there for that ATOM. As the weights table ends at 146.4t, which means that you can use the maximum derate for takeoff, which according to the table is 61C. NOTE The calculation of the reduced thrust temperature involves variables such as runway length, slope, altitude, and departure path obstacles. The use of reduced thrust settings is at the pilots discretion. Eric Ernst offers this tip from the 767 Operating Manual: As a quick guide, for long runways (>10,000 feet) use a value of 54 C. For shorter runways, use a value between current airport temperature and 54 C. The lower the temperature, the lower the de-rated thrust.
Press 6R LSK (TAKEOFF>). TAKEOFF REF (1/2) page is displayed. We will now program the FMC for takeoff: temperature, winds, runway conditions, aps settings, CG trim and the de-rated takeoff. Press NEXT PAGE (FK). TAKEOFF REF (2/2) displays. If you are running an active weather program, enter XX (two digits) for the temperature, and XXX/XX format for the wind data, and /W or /D for runway conditions. Enter XX for temperature (Depicted: 04 = 04C). Press 5R LSK. The scratchpad entry of XX (04) will transfer to 5R LSK (REF OAT). Enter XXX/XX for winds (Depicted: 260/12). Press 3L LSK. The scratchpad entry of XXX/XX (260/12) will transfer to 3L LSK (WIND). RWY WIND will be calculated and appear at 4L LSK Enter /W for Wet Runway (if applicable). Press 5L LSK. The scratchpad entry of /W will transfer to 5L LSK (SLOPE/COND).
Runway slope and condition information can be entered here. The slope may be entered as UX.X or DX.X, where U and D indicate up or down and X.X is the slope value. The condition may be entered as /DRY, /D or /WET, /W.

Taxi! Taxi!
It is time to taxi to (and hold short of) Runway 22R. Consult the EKCH Parking & Docking Chart for Kastrup. Its a good idea to take the time to print the necessary charts prior to this point - the pros dont leave home without them. Got the chart? Heres your taxi clearance: From GATE B5, taxi via F, A, A5 to Runway 22R. If not, taxi your descretion & hold short Runway 22R.
Before Takeoff
Flaps ............................................. Set for Takeoff Flight Attendants ......................... Notify During the taxi to the active runway, set the nal TOGW. Open the FMC. Press the INIT REF Function Key. The TAKEOFF REF page will be displayed. Enter the calculated GR WT value into the scratchpad. In the diagram to the left, the calculated GR WT is 142.8. Enter that number into the scratchpad. It should be near 142.6 (316.0 lbs). Press 5R LSK. The pad entry will now be set as TOGW. Clear the TAKEOFF SPEEDS DELETED message (press the BLANK function key) that appears in the scratchpad and reset the bugs on the lower left of the Airspeed Indicator.
Okay, heres the beauty of simulated ight: save a situation le (; [SEMICOLON key]) now, before you hit the throttle. Perform this task before each new phase of ight so that you have a convenient place to restart should you run into trouble. I bet real world pilots wish they could do that at work... well, in a way they can save situation les.... they just have to wait for those fun simulator checkrides.

Takeoff
NOTE: Arm the Autothrottle & turn on the Anti-collision Lights before entering the runway. Some joystick/throttles need to be advanced fully forward after pressing the N1. Monitor the N1 gauge for loss of thrust. A/T .................................................. Arm Exterior Lights ............................. Set
Rotate the Transponder dial to ON
At Vr, rotate smoothly until airborne and then establish an approximate 15 pitch up attitude. Then follow the FD pitch commands.
At Vr begin a steady pull (2-3 of rotation per second) on the yoke to establish a gentle but rm rotation and liftoff. Positive rate of climb ................... Gear Up
Gear handle UP, then OFF when retracted.
Once in the air, point the nose to an attitude that will result in a speed of V2+15 (-25), but do not exceed 25 of pitch. After liftoff, observe establishing positive rate (VSI shows climb and altimeter is showing increase in altitude), and following that raise the gear. Try to keep the V2+15 (-25) pitch prole, but if you accelerate past the desired target speed, do not increase the pitch to slow down, just settle with what you end up with. At 400
Select LNAV or HDG SEL as required. For LNAV, use the DIRECT TO procedure or intercept the route course using HDG SEL.
Smoothly advance the throttles to approximately 60-70% N1, and allow the engines to stabilize.
Verify proper thrust is set prior to 80 knots. Observe the takeoff thrust being set (N1 gauge), and eventually agree with the visible TO limit. Keep a slight forward pressure on the yoke to enhance nosewheel contact to the asphalt, and slowly release the pressure when you pass 80kts.
If the departure is complicated, you could assist the aircraft by ying the rst turns in HDG SEL, and engaging LNAV once youre past the shorter legs. At 1000
Engage VNAV and follow Flight Director commands or Select FL CH and set speed to 250.
Verify 80 knots
At 1000 AGL select a VERTICAL mode on the MCP, ie. VNAV, FL CH or V/S (used primarily in engine out situation). Through 1500 AGL pitch the nose down slightly, press C CMD on the MCP. The aircraft should continue on runway heading. Flaps .......................

When aps are UP, maintain a minimum airspeed of Vref30+80. Normally climb out at 250 knots until reaching 10,000. Then accelerate to 300 knots or FMC ECON speed. Once aps are UP, move the gear lever to the OFF position to depressurize the landing gear hydraulics.
Climb thrust
If all goes as planned, you should be near to crossing the RUBAT waypoint (and our right turn direct TOBIS). As a real world pilot once said (when asked what it was like to y the 767): VNAV, LNAV, C CMD, COFFEE. He was only half-joking. You can, at this point, do exactly as he said: Press VNAV, LNAV & C CMD on the MCP, and the aircraft will do the rest. Or, handy the aircraft following the F/D command bars on the EADI. Many real world pilots adopt this practise. Afterall, its fun to y... why should the computer get to do the fun part? Or, Open the FMC. Press LEGS (FK). Press 1L LSK for TOBIS. TOBIS will be entered into the scratchpad. Press 1L LSK. The pad entry will be updated in the FMC. Press EXEC (FK). Press VNAV, LNAV and C CMD on the MCP. Regardless of how you get there, its up to you to guide the aircraft on the SID and up to the cruise as safely and efciently as possible. The aircraft should start a right turn direct to the TOBIS waypoint. Select 36000 in the ALT box on the MCP (if you havent already done so). The aircraft is now set to follow the Lateral & Vertical modes of the ight plan.
Some important activities for the cruise phase are: Make periodic observations on the fuel consumption of the aircraft, and compare the gures you see to the numbers on your ight plan log. This is not done just to see if unpredicted winds are eating your valuable reserve fuel, but to also be on the lookout for possible fuel leak. The aircraft can, in theory, experience a fuel leak that might go unnoticed, unless a strict fuel amount monitoring policy is implemented. Always be prepared to change the planned course of your ight, in case something goes wrong. There can be many kinds of unexpected events that will force you to change your route towards an enroute alternate. Some of these include a medical emergency, technical emergency, unexpected requests by ATC. Whatever the reason, you should be able to make a logical and a rather quick decision to ensure the safety of your aircraft and your passengers. Even though you have a fully operational TCAS onboard the aircraft, it doesnt relieve you from keeping a constant trafc lookout during the cruise phase. The TCAS is not an all-encompassing or all-knowing device, and you should make it a routine to scan the outside of the aircraft (while still enjoying the views, of course). Prepare for the arrival. Get charts ready, adjust the minimum altitudes on your gauges, and consider the many possible obstacles that you could see during your approach into destination. Review the arrival and approach plates; review and program the missed approach procedure; review the predicted weather and its effect on your arrival. Always remember to keep the FMC in the loop for a better situational awareness. This means that you should make the FMC route look like your planned arrival. Of course you also have to make sure you can transition to raw data if needed (ie. Fly on the basic navigational instruments). In short: PREPARE for every eventuality. Fuel Panel
Monitor balance and turn off Center Fuel Pumps when center tank is less than 400 kgs or 1000lbs.
Be prepared to operate the FMC during the early phases of the climb to possibly take a new Direct-To to a new waypoint or manipulate the ight plan in some other way if the ATC instructions require you to do so. Dont be overwhelmed by the many tasks you will be facing during this time, but instead take one thing at a time, and try to complete everything you set out to do. Of course, for this ight, you can always stroll back to the cabin and brush up your Danish:
Anfrer: Behage opstille den Flyrejse Opsyn nede. Passager: Men hun er alts smuk. Anfrer: Men hun er mig kone. Passager: Ooops. Bedrvelig.

We will land on Runway 27L at London Heathrow. If you are using an active weather program and the winds are above 07kts, the 27s may not be appropriate. If youre comfortable planning a different arrival runway, go right ahead: for the purposes of this tutorial, we will be planning 27L (32LL0808 (ILS27L).pdf) on the LAM3A STAR (32LL0703 (Lambourne STAR).pdf). Press 6L LSK (INDEX). DEP/ARR INDEX page displays. Press 3R LSK (EGLL ARR>). EGLL ARRIVALS (1/4) page will be displayed.
We have completed the setup of the arrival runway. If we were connected to an online network, there is a likelihood that our arrival would be altered (ATC may dictate crossing & speed restrictions, or provide vectors off our planned arrival route altogether). In such circumstances, it is best to have a pen & paper handy to write down all clearances. The FMC can be used to control crossing altitudes and speed restraints, but dont be afraid to set the altitude in the MCP ALT and use FLCH to descend. HDG SEL can be used if ATC provides vectors. During the cruise, always monitor the progress of your ight. Open the FMC. Press PROG (FK). PROGRESS (1/2) page will be displayed. Note the estimated fuel for your destination. Compare those gures to the ight plan.
Press NEXT PAGE (FK) until LAM3A (STARS) appears. Press corresponding L LSK for LAM3A. <SEL> will appear to the left of LAM3A. Press corresponding R LSK for ILS27L. <SEL> will appear to the right of ILS27L. Press EXEC (FK) to execute the arrival & runway. Now that our arrival is set, we need to close some discontinuities that have occurred in our route.
Press LEGS (FK). ACT RTE1 LEGS (1/5) page displays. Press NEXT PAGE (FK) and close the discontinuity (if there is one) between the XAMAN and LOGAN waypoints. Press NEXT PAGE (FK) and close the discontinuity between the CI27L and LAM waypoints. Press EXEC Function Key.
Press NEXT PAGE (FK). PROGRESS (2/2) page will be displayed. Note the information displayed and compare those gures to your ight plan. Make notes on your ight plan for fuel burn, winds aloft, and check to make sure that you will arrive with fuel to spare: nothing worse than heading to an alternate due to weather and not having the requisite fuel to get there. Thats a big Ooops, but not likely to happen on our short hop.
Question: If a 767 runs out of fuel at FL410, what do you have? Answer: A 132 ton glider with a sink rate of over 2000 feetper-minute and marginally enough hydraulic pressure to control the ailerons, elevator, and rudder. On July 29, 1983, veteran pilots Bob Pearson and Maurice Quintal were at the controls of Air Canada Flight 143 when the unbelievable happened: they ran out of fuel. The aircraft (Fin #604) landed safely at an abandoned Royal Canadian Air Force Base located in Gimli, Manitoba. The avoidance of disaster was credited to Captain Pearsons Knowledge of gliding which he applied in an emergency situation to the landing of one of the most sophisticated aircraft ever built. Captain Pearson strongly credits Quintal for his cockpit management of Everything but the actual ight controls, including his recommendation of Gimli as an landing spot. The aircraft went back in service (after a million dollar repair) and has been known ever since as the Gimli Glider.
Excerpted from an article published in Soaring Magazine by Wade H.Nelson
A 767 History
UPDATE: The Gimli Glider still soars through the skies for Air Canada. LDS767 Team member, Rob Hall, ew from Toronto to Vancouver on the 767-200 on June 5, 2005. The Glider has survived two trips to the desert, and burned 22 tons of fuel on the 4.5 hour ight (PW engines), but she is still airworthy, though the 25 year old panel looks scratched up and worn out.

Lets look at the FMC VNAV pages... Press VNAV (FK). The ACT ECON CRZ (2/3) page will be displayed. On this page, you can view your commanded ight level, cruise speed, true airspeed, step climb format (in this instance ICAO), step climb information, destination estimated time of arrival and fuel, and the optimum and maximum calculated ight levels. You can manually change your ight level, cruise speed, and step climb format (try entering 2000 at 4L LSK), as well as access FMC sub pages. Consult the manual for more information about the sub pages.
Press NEXT PAGE (FK). The ACT ECON DES (3/3) page will be displayed. On this page, you can view your destination runway, the runway altitude, the speed for the descent, the speed transition altitude. You can manually input a speed restriction. The DES NOW> at 6R LSK will enable an immediate descent to the commanded MCP altitude. This is a handy feature if ATC needs your aircraft at a lower altitude. Judging by the sounds emanating from the football fans in the cabin (Vi er rd, vi er hvid, vi er Dansk dynamisk), its time to get ready for the descent and arrival into London.
From the LDS767 manual: The Flight Level Change mode is selected by pressing the FL CH button on the MCP. FL CH is annunciated in green on the EADI and the A/T is automatically engaged if armed. Additionally, the current aircraft speed is reset in the IAS/MACH window of the MCP and the TRP changes to a CLB mode. When selected, the AFDS and the autothrottle command pitch and power settings to y the aircraft toward the altitude selected in the MCP ALT window at the selected speed. Changing the IAS/MACH speed on the MCP causes the AFDS to change the commanded pitch angle to maintain the selected speed. If a climb is required, the A/T sets power to the maximum available (based on TRP selection) and the AFDS pitches up to maintain the selected airspeed. If a descent is required, the A/T sets the power to IDLE and enters a throttle hold (THR HOLD) mode while the AFDS pitches down to maintain the selected airspeed. The throttle hold mode disconnects the autothrottle from the power levers which allows the pilot to manually control thrust during the descent.
Lets leave the LOGAN waypoint as is for the moment. The calculated altitude is close enough to FL250, and knowing that we will be level at 260 well before LOGAN, it is unlikely we will cross at FL250. Enter 15000 into the Scratchpad. Press R LSK adjacent to the SABER waypoint. Press EXEC (FK).
Conrm that the changes we have made are correct. Rotate the Display control on the EHSI panel to MAP from PLAN. You can leave the EHSI Range Control at 40nm or zoom out to 160 (depending on where you are in your cruise).
Stay ahead of the aircraft. For this tutorial we are planning our arrival & runway well BEFORE the descent. If you y online, be prepared to change any and all of this information during the descent phase. Regardless, take the time to plan ahead. If you can, do it now, before the descent.

From the LDS767 manual: The Approach Reference page is only available while in the air. It displays and updates automatically based on aircraft weight. On this page you can view Gross Weight (the value may be manually entered if the gross weight is not shown or is incorrect), Approach Reference Speeds (Approach Vref speeds update automatically when a weight is entered into the GROSS WT eld. Flaps 25 and 30 are normal ap landing speeds.), Runway Length (The departure runway length is displayed until the lesser of 400 miles from the departure airport or halfway to the destination.), Frequency and Course (The ILS frequency and approach course for the selected runway is displayed here and at the 5R position. The frequency shown is for the departure runway until the lesser of 400 miles from the departure airport or halfway to the destination. Otherwise, the frequency and course for the arrival runway in the active route are displayed.), Flap/Speed (This line accepts the entry of a different ap/speed combination. Entries in this data eld have no effect on other performance data.)
Descent (Continued)
Autobrakes .................................... As required Approach brieng ......................... Complete
Set 1 through MAX AUTO as appropriate. The use of autobrakes is at pilot discretion. Review, discuss, evaluate, and conrm all aspects of the impending arrival. That means planning the procedure for go-around and/or missed approach; nal speed & aps/setting; other pertinent information that you and your crew will need to make a safe landing.
Alright, we are now going to start our descent (as per ATC direction (and a letter of agreement between the Dutch & British airspace regulators)). As the aircraft nears the PAM VOR, descend to FL260. It is understood that the aircraft is currently congured with VNAV, LNAV and C CMD engaged. Set 26000 in the MCPs Target Altitude Window. Open the FMC. Press VNAV (FK). ACT ECON CRZ will display. Enter 26000 (or 260) into the Scratchpad. Press 1L LSK to transfer 26000 (CRZ ALT column). Press EXEC (FK). The aircraft will descend to 26000.
Press the corresponding L LSK next to the LAM VOR. The scratchpad entry (220/080) will transfer. Press EXEC (FK).
As we inch our way across the channel, to chants of Er vi der endnu? Er vi der endnu?, we must decide how we want to control our NEXT descent phase. Direct VNAV will automatically descend at the T/D point (Alt Target Window set at 22000) for LOGAN, or we may choose DES NOW> option available on the VNAV DES page of the FMC. To start our descent before the FMC calculated T/D, Press VNAV (FK). ACT ECON CRZ page displays. Press NEXT PAGE (FK) until DES NOW> appears at the CDUs 6R LSK. Press 6R LSK. Press EXEC (FK). The aircraft will descend to FL220.
Early descent will ensure that the altitude restriction at LAM will not be missed.
ATC has not given us any speed restrictions or a specic waypoint to cross at FL260 (though we can guess the airspace border is optimal for level ight), just to descend to FL260. So, changing the assigned CRZ ALT from within the FMC, is perfect for this situation. After a short time, Amsterdam hands us off to London ATC and we are promptly instructed to cross LOGAN at FL220 and to expect LAM at 080. Time to update the Flight Management Computer. Open the FMC. Press LEGS (FK). Enter 220 (or 22000) into the scratchpad. Press the corresponding L LSK next to the LOGAN wpt. The scratchpad entry (220) will transfer. Press NEXT PAGE (FK) until LAM appears. Enter 220/080 into the scratchpad.
To start the descent at the FMC calculated T/D, reset the MCPs Alt Target Window to 22000. The aircraft will descend to FL220 at T/D.
FPA is the actual ight path angle of the aircraft. It is typically 3 to 4 in a descent. V/B is the required vertical bearing to reach the waypoint altitude (Depicted: LOGAN @ 22000). V/S is the required vertical speed to meet the V/B.
ATC has not told us to slow to 220 knots at Lambourne, but the LAM3A chart does, so, lets plan ahead (just in case).
Air trafc must be light (or perhaps ATC divines that our pax are a lively bunch), because even BEFORE crossing LOGAN, ATC clears us to FL080 at LAM. Therefore, the SABER crossing restriction is cancelled.
-21 -
If you have time, before crossing LOGAN, delete the SABER altitude restriction to allow VNAV to descend directly from 220 to 080 at Lambourne. Open the FMC. Press LEGS (FK) Press PAGE DOWN (FK) until the SABER waypoint appears. Press DELETE (FK). Scratchpad will display DELETE.
leave the speed as is, but keep an eye on the green arc on the EHSI. We want it to be within 10nm of the LAM VOR, preferrably before Lambourne (thats where we have to maintain 220 knots). So, be ready to dial back the speed on the MCP and to extend the speedbrakes if it looks like crossing LAM at FL080 is going to be a challenge. Through 11,000 feet the speed will need to be reduced to 240 knots. Within 5nm of LAM VOR its a good idea reduce the speed to 200 knots.
Press the R LSK next to the restriction at the SABER waypoint and the altitude restriction will be deleted. Press EXEC (FK).
Below 10,000 feet Landing Wing Lights .................... ON As we get closer to Lambourne, keep an eye on the descent rate and the EHSI green arc (it should be near or at LAM). ATC has directed us to depart LAM on a heading of 270. The aircraft should now be level at FL080 on a heading of 268 a few miles from LAM VOR. If you are in FL CH mode, engage VNAV. Otherwise, stay the course.
Once we are level at FL220 at LOGAN, we can begin the direct descent to Lambourne at FL080. Due to the volume of trafc in London airspace (who knows if well be asked to enter a holding pattern along the STAR), we want to make sure that the aircraft makes any and all restrictions along the track. Monitor the green arc on the EHSI and the descent rate closely. If the descent seems shallow, or the airspeed is higher than the FMC VNAV page predicts, use the speedbrakes. Have the FMC ACT ECON DES page available to view the numbers being generated by the FPA, V/B, and V/S. Compare the V/S value to the Main Panels Vertical Speed Indicator. Do they match? If not, you may want to consider changing VNAV mode to a FLCH mode descent. Optional Descent Mode Press FLCH on the MCP. Dial 8000 in the MCP Altitude Target Window. The aircraft will begin an immediate descent to FL080. We can adjust the descent speed (it will probably be near 310 knots in the initial descent) by dialling the MCP IAS/MACH speed to a lower number. Initially, we can
Dial 270 (MCP HDG window). Press the MCPs HDG HOLD button. The aircraft will hold the current heading of 268. After passing Lambourne VOR, Press the MCPs HDG SEL button. The aircraft will make a 2 turn to 270. ATC instructs us to decend to 7000. Dial 7000 in the MCPs Altitude Target Window. If VNAV is enaged, the aircraft will descend to 7000 and attempt to hold the speed at 220 knots. Otherwise, Press FL CH. Right. The workload is about to increase considerably. Save a situtaion le now. Grab a cool one. Then, take a deep breath, because when you turn this page, you are about to enter... the Landing Zone!

Coming level at 7000 feet, ATC instructs us to make a left turn to a heading of 110 and descend to 4000 feet, Heathrow QNH, 1013. They also request that we keep the speed at 220 knots (I think theres another planeload of Danish footballers at our six). 110, 4000, and 1013. First things rst, lets dial the altitude, and start the descent. Once we start down, well change the heading. Dial 4000 into the MCPs Altitude Target Window. Press the MCP FL CH button. The FL CH button will illuminate. The MCPs IAS/MACH Window should display 220 knots, and the aircraft should start a slow descent to 4000. Ensure MCPs HDG HOLD light is illuminated. Dial 110 into the MCPs HDG window. Press the MCPs HDG SEL button. The aircraft will begin a left turn to the assigned heading of 110. Set the altimeter to 1013 (or, if you are using a real weather program, enter the current QNH for EGLL).
Transition altitude is the altitude in the vicinity of an aerodrome at or below which the vertical position of an aircraft which is controlled by reference to altitude, e.g. with the aerodrome QNH set on its altimeter. Above transition altitude QNE is set and ight levels used. Also called transition level (TL) at which a descending aircraft changes from FL to QNH.
Dial 3000 into the MCP Altitude Target Window. The aircraft should continue its descent in FLCH. If the aircraft is level at 4000, press FLCH to restart the descent to 3000. Dial 240 into the MCPs HDG Window. Press HDG SEL. Dial 180 into the MCPs IAS/MACH Window.
Press the MCPs LOC mode button. The AFDS has now been set to intercept the Localizer freq (109.50) for runway 27L. The aircraft should be approximately 12 miles back of the threshhold. Once the aircraft starts the turn to the 27L inbound course of 275...

When aps are 25/30, the minimum speed is Vapproach. Vapproach = Vref30 + wind factor. Wind factor = steady headwind + gust factor. Gust factor = gust reported steady wind.
Open the PEDESTAL. Set/conrm the 27L ILS freq 109.50, OBS 275. Watch your speed - is it time to drop some aps? Once the aircraft descends through 4500, ATC instructs LDS003, right turn to 240, descend to 3000 and slow to 180 knots. You are cleared to intercept the localizer for runway 27L.

Press the MCPs APP button. The AFDS is now congured to follow the ILS on its vertical glideslope path. Monitor your airspeed, and extend the aps (if the F/O is disabled) as per the Flaps schedule (next page). Once fully established on the glideslope, check that the MCP ALT Window is set to 3000 for the MAP.
The Autoland Status of the aircraft is annunciated on the ASA at 1500 feet radio height as the multiple autopilot operation engages. FLARE and ROLLOUT are annunciated in white on the EADI when multiple autopilots are engaged.

Now, if the weathers good, time to DISENGAGE the A/P, disable the A/T and the F/D, and hand y her in. Afterall, your Danish football friends are cheering you on... Final approach airspeed is maintained until crossing runway threshold. Speed is then reduced so as to touch down at the double white bug speed plus gust additive. Flare is initiated when the main gear is approximately 30 ft above the runway. Increase pitch attitude by approximately 2, then smoothly reduce thrust levers to idle. Maintain this pitch attitude until touchdown. Do not allow the airplane to oat, but y the aircraft onto the runway and accomplish the landing roll procedure. On touchdown, the PNF calls SPEEDBRAKES UP, or if the speedbrakes do not extend automatically the PNF calls NO SPEEDBRAKES, and the Captain extends them manually. When the main gear is rmly on the runway and speedbrakes have deployed, the PF selects the reverse thrust levers to the interlock position and lowers the nose wheel onto the runway. When the interlocks release the PF selects the pre-determined level of reverse thrust. The PNF monitors reverse thrust and autobrakes. If one or both reversers do not operate, the PNF advises the PF of the condition, e.g., NO LEFT REVERSE. The PF controls reverse thrust and wheel braking as necessary.

With our Danish passengers safely on their raucous way, we can now take a few moments to catch our breath. In just one hour we depart with a full load of nudist/botanists bound for a convention in Frankfurt... from one extreme to another. An update on the match between Denmark & England: They may be red, they may be white, and they may be Danish Dynamite, but the friendly ended in a nil-nil draw. So much for dynamite on this outing! Thanks for ying with Level-D Simulations. We hope youve enjoyed Flight 003 aboard LDSs 767-300ER. Stay tuned.
