7. When the go-around control is pressed, what flight director and autopilot functions can be expected? Pressing the go-around control engages the flight director in the wings level, nose up attitude and the autopilot disengages automatically. 8. List several ways the autopilot can be disengaged. When there is a system failure, automatic disengagement occurs. Manual disengagement is accomplished by pressing the AP DISC Button, the MET ARM Switch, the AP Key on the MFD, or the go-around control. 9. An aircraft has just departed from an airport and is performing a runway heading climb-out. Following the departure procedure, the plane climbs to 4000 feet, then turns to a heading of 270°. The final cruising altitude is 9000 feet. How would the pilot configure the autopilot to follow all of the departure procedure up to the final cruising altitude? 1. Upon takeoff, set the Selected Altitude to 9,000 feet using the ALT or ALT SEL Knob. 2. After attaining the desired vertical speed, pitch, or airspeed, press the VS, FD, or FLC Key. When the appropriate mode is activated, press the AP Key to engage the autopilot. The pitch mode selected will be coupled with Roll Hold Mode. 3. Set the Selected Heading to 270° using the HDG Knob on the PFD. 4. Upon reaching 4,000 feet, press the HDG Key. As the aircraft reaches 9,000 feet, the flight director transitions from the selected pitch mode to Altitude Hold Mode. From this point, the autopilot flies at 9,000 feet and holds a heading of 270°. 10. Using the scenario above, configure the autopilot to intercept an airway. Currently, the autopilot is set to Heading Select and Altitude Hold modes. 1. Tune the VOR frequency. 2. Set the HSI mode to the correct NAV receiver by pressing the CDI Softkey. 3. Select the desired course using the CRS Knob. 4. Finally, press the NAV Key to arm VOR Navigation Mode. The autopilot will intercept the course and activate Navigation Mode. 46 GIFD Pilot's Training Guide 190-00368-05 Rev. B

When the go-around control is pressed, what flight director and autopilot functions can be
expected?
Pressing the go-around control engages the flight director in the wings level, nose up
attitude and the autopilot disengages automatically.
8.
List several ways the autopilot can be disengaged.
When there is a system failure, automatic disengagement occurs.
Manual
disengagement is accomplished by pressing the
AP DISC
Button, the
MET
ARM Switch,
the
AP
Key on the MFD, or the go-around control.
9.
An aircraft has just departed from an airport and is performing a runway heading climb-out.
Following the departure procedure, the plane climbs to 4000 feet, then turns to a heading of
270
°
.
The final cruising altitude is 9000 feet. How would the pilot configure the autopilot
to follow all of the departure procedure up to the final cruising altitude?
1.
Upon takeoff, set the Selected Altitude to 9,000 feet using the
ALT
or
ALT SEL
Knob.
2.
After attaining the desired vertical speed, pitch, or airspeed, press the
VS
,
FD
, or
FLC
Key.
When the appropriate mode is activated, press the
AP
Key to engage the
autopilot.
The pitch mode selected will be coupled with Roll Hold Mode.
3.
Set the Selected Heading to 270
°
using the
HDG
Knob on the PFD.
4.
Upon reaching 4,000 feet, press the
HDG
Key.
As the aircraft reaches 9,000 feet, the
flight director transitions from the selected pitch mode to Altitude Hold Mode.
From
this point, the autopilot flies at 9,000 feet and holds a heading of 270
°
.
10.
Using the scenario above, configure the autopilot to intercept an airway.
Currently, the
autopilot is set to Heading Select and Altitude Hold modes.
1.
Tune the VOR frequency.
2.
Set the HSI mode to the correct NAV receiver by pressing the
CDI
Softkey.
3.
Select the desired course using the
CRS
Knob.
4.
Finally, press the
NAV
Key to arm VOR Navigation Mode. The autopilot will
intercept the course and activate Navigation Mode.
