Is this the standard method on the 738?
Different aeroplane, but same principle. Sorry for the confusion. Wait for it, we disengage the AP and leave the A/T in. My original point on the use of FPA was in relation to India 42's comment re the approach slope on the chart.
The most significant yet unusual warning of the encounter was the crew's awareness of the exceptional noise of very intense rain.
That
is a good one to store away.
The coded E/D on this approach is at MA09, not at 50' over RW09...surprise .
I never said there was a RW09 waypoint at 50ft. All I said was that I assumend the approaches are designed to put you at 50ft TCH over the threshold: vertically speaking only. Obviously, laterally speaking, the approach must be offset.
If MDA 470 is set in the MCP (new RC A/P will accept this)
Catching up to the real world.
