Boeing 737 MAX vyžaduje typovku

V súčasnosti je najčastejší prechod na Boeing 737 MAX pre pilotov, ktorí sú držiteľmi, alebo získali typový výcvik na Boeing 737 NG.

Prvou podmienkou pre lietanie na Boeingu 737 MAX je teda platná typová kvalifikácia, ktorú EASA typeratings endorsment list definuje ako B737 300-900. Tá vo všeobecnosti umožňuje lietanie na Generáciách Classic, NG a MAX Boeingu 737 nasledovne:

Common EASA typerating Boeing 737

Po absolvovaní predpísaného typového výcviku je potrebné absolvovať dodatočný preškoľovací výcvik na Boeing 737MAX v simulátore, ktorý reprezentuje cockpit Boeing 737 MAX v nasledovnom rozsahu. Tento špecifický výcvik je výsledkom dodatočných certifikačných a modifikačných procesov, ktoré si vyžiadali známe problémy s Boeingom 737 MAX po dvoch nehodách.

Demonstration of MCAS activation accomplished by each pilot acting as PF.

  • MCAS activation during an impending stall (or full stall) and recovery demonstration during manual flight in a clean configuration.

Demonstrate MCAS activation stabilizer trim responses:

  • Stabilizer trim in the nose down direction when above threshold AOA for MCAS activation during stall.
  • Stabilizer trim in the nose up direction when below threshold AOA for MCAS activation during recovery.

Runaway stabilizer condition requiring use of manual stabilizer trim accomplished by each pilot acting as PF.

  • Runaway stabilizer training

  • Operation of each manual trim technique (as defined by Boeing).

  •  This training can be completed in a 737 MAX or 737NG FFS.

Use of manual stabilizer trim during approach, G/A, and level off by each pilot acting as PF.

  • Use of manual stabilizer trim as described in subparagraph 

  •  This training can be completed in a 737 MAX or 737NG FFS.

A Cross-FCC Trim Monitor activation demonstration accomplished by either pilot acting as PF.

  • Condition must terminate in a landing in order to demonstrate the updated STAB OUT OF TRIM light functionality.

Erroneous high AOA during takeoff that leads to an unreliable airspeed condition accomplished by either pilot acting as PF.

  • Demonstrates flight deck effects (i.e., aural, visual, and tactile) associated with the failure.
  • Fault occurring during the takeoff procedure.
  • Must include a go-around or missed approach flown with erroneous high AOA condition.
  • Special emphasis placed on FD behavior biasing out of view upon selecting takeoff/go-around (TO/GA).
