Hello first post here,
Im trying to understand how to update or load if you will, the final weight data after you have started both ENG (A32S) Im given to understand that you can't access INIT B page after the ENG START, the question is , how are you supposed to enter this final data if for some reason you have already started youre engines.

Thanks in advance:ok:,

Are you using FMS1 or 2? In FMS 2 you can access it..

On old FMC - :*
- Init A + B inaccessible. Use FUEL PRED page.
- Also if you need to change the ALTN you have to do the proc
as per FCOM.

On new FMC - :)
- Init A + B accessible. Means also you can change the ALTN
directly on Init A without going through all that rigmarole of
the old FMC.

BTW lad don't jump ahead too much before the CBT or you'll
attend it in utter confusion. Any reasonably good course will
have an instructor hanging around to answer such questions.
