Boeing 737NG simulator seeking pilot...

[highlander]

Further to my above comments the Boeing Manual is vague but offer this reference:

"After an RTO or landing, if either thrust lever is advanced, the SPEED BRAKE lever automatically moves to the DOWN detent and all spiler panels retract.

The use of speed brakes with flaps extended should be avoided, if possible. With flaps 15 or greater the speedbrakes should be retracted."

I couldn't find a reference for autostow in flight besides load alleviation. Furthermore i can't think I a scenario where you would intentionally have flaps beyond 15 and speedbrake out.

Hi to all!
It's a very long time I did not post here. So now a big question. My friend is working on the overhead logic and he would like to know these things. If someone may help us ...
Thank you once more
Alain

When the ground air unit is supplying the aircraft with air what is the left PSI avalaible on the bleed air gauge? 
Does this air can be tranfert to the other side with the isolation valve? If so, what would be the PSI on both side? And finally, is this air is sufficient to use the packs?

[alphatango]

No answer?

[beaverguy]

Ground air for the cabin, or ground air for an engine start?

[alphatango]

I would say for both...

Now here is a photo of the actual pedestal...
Notice that the keyboard will desappear as soon I will have programmed the CDU keyboard, or what I think is a old 737-200 CDU. Am I right???

Hi all...
Its a long time I did not came here...
I am going to Cuba with Westjet departure 12 of april Flight WS683 to toronto and WS2504 to Cuba.
Return is 26 of April WS2505 and WS684
Could I hope to have the chance to visit the cockpit there? Are you or do you know the pilot who will be in the cockpit on these flights?
I imagine you understand my excitement of visiting the cockpit if it is possible.
Thank you to help...

Hey Alain. Just ask the FA if you could go visit and it shouldn't be a problem. In fact, as soon as you walk up to the gate, ask the CSA if he/she could ask the pilot's if you could go down and see how they do all the setups/checklists and the CSA may just scan you through early and be able to go down before they start the official boarding.

[alphatango]

Thank you for your answer.
But i wish i could be in contact with the pilot before the departure day to be sure it could work and i could follow as much of check lists and procedure as possible...

Hi Alain,

I'll try to see if I can figure out who's working those flights and give them your contact info. Can't guarantee I'll be successful but you never know. Either way good luck and have fun!

[alphatango]

Would be great thank you...
Who knows maybe the pilot will have a look on this topic...

Ground air supplying depends on the cart but could be as high as 50-60 psi on the left needle only when the isolation valve is not in the OPEN position. When the isolation valve is placed in the open position it normally goes to half on the left and right. So left and right would read about 20-30 psi on both left and right needles. Yes a the ground is sufficient to run both packs. Hope this helps.
