Do airlines let you fly raw data?
As I am going to start my ME/IR training, followed by a TR on the 320 soon after that, I am just gathering as much information as I can.
Do airlines generally let you fly the whole approach as it is on the approach plate manually?
When doing a raw data approach, are FD/s, A/TH usually off?
A few of my friends tell me, it is all put in the MCDU, and usually done for you.
Sometimes you are allowed to fly raw data starting from radar vectors, but NOT the actual approach like it is on the chart itself.
Can somebody please clarify to me how it works on the bus?
