Thank You!! One more question for you or any other Airbus pilots. What is Thrust Bump. I see it puts a B next to N1 when activated but what is it? In vol 2 70.90.4.27 it says its green when engaged, amber when selected but not engaged and cyan when selected. Any one know about this?

It's an old system that isnt used anymore. It was essentially a max power take off that allowed the full rated thrust of the engine. Also I believe it could only be used 50 or 100 times total. Before the engine would hved to be overhauled.

Totally random question I apologize, do all Delta 737s have HUDs on the CA side?

If so, do your 737 procedures require the HUD “mandatory for all takeoff, approach, and landings for tailstrike warnings?”

Yes, all our 737’s have a Capt side HUD. Ops manual says HUD “should” be used for takeoff, approach, and landing. Should is used to indicate compliance is expected.

Oh ok, thank you. Different airline transitioning into the 737. Just trying to see how to avoid being a HUD cripple if this thing is gonna be used every takeoff and landing. I wanna fly the plane, not fly a plane symbol into a ball. I guess it’s a fine art of “looking through” the glass and just going by regular visual cues, and using peripheral vision to keep an eye on the tailstrike indicator coming into view.

Just turn the brightness down, but yes, your brain will eventually get used to ‘seeing through it’ if that’s what you want to do.

Default Move RSV Days question

Question for scheduling gurus:
Currently have a RSV line for OCT. Days OFF 1-15. On RSV 16-31. (Single block of 16 days.) Trying to move four OFF days from 05-08 and put them on 16-19. Computer saying this violates OFF day grouping requirements.

I can't see where this is not a compliant trade. Results would be only two blocks of RSV and it does not cause a 30/168 violation that did not exist prior to the trade. RSV grouping in my category were 3-99-5 for the OCT bid period. Anyone can explain what I'm missing?

i believe you can’t make more x day groupings than you were originally awarded.
