737-300, assessment
I've got through to the sim assessment stage, on a 737-300.
But, I have no jet time. Any advise on preperation for the sim? |
-on SE APP do not change the PITCH after visual contact with the RWY , it is higier than on both engines On a s/e approach the speed is higher than two engines (max flap 15) therefore Vref is higher. I agree about about not changing pitch, dont worry about doing a "greaser" My hints are :- Keep it trimmed in pitch (little and often] Positive (large) throttle movement when not at the correct parameters, esp if low/slow. Small throttle movements when on the approach, as trim changes a lot with changes in power. If its not looking good, GO AROUND. I expect some more hints will turn up. Most of the above applies to most jet transports Good luck. |
Small control inputs as it is a heavy old bird and hard to get back.

Get your pitch and powers learnt so that you could recite them backwards.

I did sim last month on the 737-800 with no jet time for major airline. They do the sim eval differently from this for the people with type rating. I hope this might give you an idea.
* Take off with 10kt X-wind with FD and AT * Airspeed Change 250kt to 300kt then back to 250kts at constant altitude without FD or AT * Constant Speed Climb and Descent at certain power setting without FD or AT * Constant Rate of Climb and Descent at 250kts without FD or AT * 30 Bank turns (180 degree) without FD or AT * Steep Tuens (180 degree) without FD or AT * ILS with 10kt X-wind with FD but no AT * Visual Approach with 10kt X-wind without FD or AT Don't use rudder in the air(my current place needs so much rudder) I got used to the power setting after 5 mins. Remember the power setting when you were level and 250kts(or whatever the base speed that they use). As rogerg said trim it as much as you can. After 1 hour of sim, your wrist can get pretty sore. The trim travelled a lot slower than the king air did. |
