1.1 GENERAL
Normal procedures are done on each flight. Refer to the Supplementary Procedures (SP) chapter for
procedures that are done as needed, for example the adverse weather procedures.
Normal procedures are written for a trained flight crew and assume:
Normal procedures also assume coordination with the ground crew before:
Normal procedures do not include steps for flight deck lighting and crew comfort items.
Normal procedures are done by memory and scan flow. The panel illustration in this section shows the
scan flow. The scan flow sequence may be changed as needed.
CONFIGURATION CHECK
It is the crew member’s responsibility to verify correct system response. Before engine start, use system
lights to verify each system's condition or configuration.
After engine start, the master caution system alerts the crew to warnings or cautions away from the
normal field of view.
• Check the Dispatch Deviations Guide (DDG) or the operator equivalent to decide if the condition
has a dispatch effect
• Decide if maintenance is needed
If, during or after engine start, a red warning or amber caution light illuminates:
If, during recall, an amber caution illuminates and then extinguishes after a master caution reset:
CREW DUTIES
Preflight and post flight crew duties are divided between the captain and first officer. Phase of flight
duties are divided between the Pilot Flying (PF) and the Pilot Monitoring (PM.)
Each crewmember is responsible for moving the controls and switches in their area of responsibility:
• The phase of flight areas of responsibility for both normal and non-normal procedures is shown
in the Area of Responsibility illustrations in this section. Typical panel locations are shown
• The preflight and post flight areas of responsibility are defined by the “Preflight Procedure -
Captain” and “Preflight Procedure – First Officer.”
The captain may direct actions outside of the crewmember’s area of responsibility The general PF phase
of flight responsibilities are:
• taxiing
• flight path and airspeed control
• airplane configuration
• navigation.
• checklist reading
• communications
• tasks asked for by the PF
• monitoring taxiing, flight path, airspeed, airplane configuration and navigation.
PF and PM duties may change during a flight. For example, the captain could be the PF during taxi but be
the PM during takeoff through landing.
Normal procedures show who does a step by crew position (C, F/O, PF, or PM):
The mode control panel is the PF’s responsibility. When flying manually, the PF directs the PM to make
the changes on the mode control panel.
The captain is the final authority for all tasks directed and done.
The scan flow and areas of responsibility diagrams shown below are representative and may not match
the configuration(s) of your airplanes.
The scan flow diagram provides general guidance on the order each flight crew member should follow
when doing the preflight and post flight procedures.
Specific guidance on the items to be checked are detailed in the amplified Normal Procedures. For
example, preflight procedure details are in the Preflight Procedure - Captain and Preflight Procedure -
First Officer.

1.2.2 PRELIMINARY PREFLIGHT PROCEDURES
The Preliminary Preflight Procedure assumes that the Electrical Power Up supplementary procedure is
complete.
Do these check if the flight crew did not do the Electrical Power Up supplementary procedures.
This check is needed once per flight day or following a flight crew change.
• Verify that the engine No. 1, APU, and engine No. 2 fire switches are in.
Alert ground personnel before the following test are accomplished:
15.1 OVERHEAT DETECTOR switches………………………………………………..NORMAL
15.2 TEST switch…………………………………………………………….Hold to FAULT/INOP
• Verify that the MASTER CAUTION lights are illuminated.
• Verify that the OVHT/DET annunciator is illuminated.
• Verify that the FAULT light is illuminated.
• If the FAULT light fails to illuminate, the fault monitoring system is inoperative.
• Verify that the APU DET INOP light is illuminated.
Do not run the APU if the APU DET INOP light does not illuminate.
15.3 TEST switch…………………………………………………………..….Hold to OVHT/FIRE
• Verify that the fire warning bell sounds.
• Verify that the master FIRE WARN lights are illuminated.
• Verify that the MASTER CAUTION lights are illuminated.
• Verify that the OVHT/DET annunciator is illuminated.
15.4 Master FIRE WARN light……………………………………………………………………Push
• Verify that the master FIRE WARN lights are extinguished.
• Verify that the fire warning bell cancels.
• Verify that the engine No. 1, APU and engine No. 2 fire switches stay illuminated.
• Verify that the ENG 1 OVERHEAT and ENG 2 OVERHEAT lights stay illuminated.
• Verify that the WHEEL WELL light stays illuminated.
16. EXTINGUISHER TEST switch …………………………………………………………Check
16.1 TEST switch – Position to 1 and hold.
• Verify that the three green extinguisher test lights are illuminated.
16.2 TEST switch – Release
• Verify that the three green extinguisher test lights are extinguished.
16.3 Repeat for test position 2.
CAUTION: Center tank fuel pump switches should be positioned ON only if the fuel quantity in
the center tank exceeds 453 kgs.
CAUTION: do not operate the center tank fuel pumps with the flight deck unattended.
