An evenings approach into Manchester
An evenings approach into Manchester (EGCC - MAN) onto RW23R. There was plenty of weather about that evening so our initial route to DAYNE via TNT was blocked. After initially routing towards Liverpool we turn back towards DAYNE where we get vectors for the ILS (skip to 06:00)
Information about the FMA's (Flight Mode Annunciators)
The top three columns on the Primary Flight Display (PFD) tell us what mode the aircraft is in. On the left we have the Auto Throttle (A/T) mode, the middle is the lateral mode while the right is the Vertical mode.
The A/T modes we mainly use are MCP SPD (when we are descending in Vertical speed), RETARD followed by ARM (when we are using Level Change) or FMC SPD if we a using VNAV.
The lateral modes that are used are mainly HDG SEL (a desired heading on the Mode Control Panel (MCP)) or LNAV (the routing that is inserted into the FMC)
For the vertical modes MCP SPD (used when we are in level change, the aircraft pitches to maintain the speed with the throttles closed in the descent or at a desired thrust setting in the climb). V/S when climbing or descending at a desired rate.
When we are cleared for an ILS approach we arm the localiser and glide slope (G/S), VOR/LOC appears in white to show us its armed in the lateral mode (middle column) while G/S appears white to show us its armed in vertical mode (right column). Once the localiser and glide slope have both been captured they turn green to show us they are active.
A green box appears around a new mode for 10 seconds to show us it has recently changed.
