MD83FO,


I am pretty sure you know where to find the info in the FCOM but this is my two cents.

FCOM PRO-NOR-SOP-90 P 1/12 18 MAR 15
Actions commanded by PF


GENERAL
The following commands do not necessarily initiate a guidance mode change, eg: selected to managed/managed to selected. The intent is to ensure clear, consistent, standard communication between crewmembers.
All actions performed on the FCU and the MCDU must be checked on the PFD and ND ( eg.:"FL350 blue","FL 200 magenta") Ensure that the correct FCU knob is used, then verify indications on the PFD/ND.


FCOM PRO-NOR-SOP-90 P 3/12 18 MAR 15
FMA
The PF should call out any FMA change, unless specified differently (eg.CAT II & III task sharing).
Therefore the PF should announce:
- All armed modes with the associated color (e.g. blue, magenta):"G/S blue","LOC blue".
- All active modes without the associated color (e.g. green, white):"NAV","ALT".
The PM should check and respond, "CHECKED" to all FMA changes called out by the PF.
