Are you sure about that page number? 7-19 thru 7-21 is the take off procedures in “block” format. No verbiage about RNAV anywhere.
7-22 talks about RNAV, but nothing has changed from Rev3B that I can find. (CFM 10-2)
7-16 does get rid of the requirement to select HDG or NAV mode at 400’. (Rev3B CFM 10-19) Now to be selected right after speed mode at V2+10, at V2+10-15 KIAS.
FOM 8-12 already requires the FD and LDI for all RNAV SIDs, and recommends use of A/P.

Why don't you give your passengers that brief. I Think they would deplane.
Imagine if your Dr told you they weren't going to use the newer, safer, higher tech procedures, but wanted to practice the old way?

If this is happening, then you need to put on your CA hat and teach them how to do it correctly. You are their primary trainer, after all.

Practicing in the sim is great. Hardly ever happens.
Only had an A/P deferred once. It was the CA’s leg. After about 15 minutes of witching him struggle, I offered to fly for a while, give him a break; figured we could take turns “resting”. After a bit, he complimented me on my aircraft control, and asked me to take it all the way in. I said no problemo. It was very clear he had been an A/P only guy for a while.
It is a diminishing skill. The time to practice is NOT when it is required.

God like 15 pages later people are still arguing about RNAV and flight directors. You’d think this was some Mom and pop shop up in Alaska and and not a part 121 carrier with a training Manual and set profiles for flight. The easiest solution to the argument is, if you blew an engine on take off and decided to hand fly it raw data; What do you think the company would say?

I’m pretty sure NO ONE would hand fly a plane on one engine unless the A/P was deferred. Your scenario doesn’t make sense in discussing what is written in the manuals.

Fly the plane how you want to fly it, but captain happy encouraging people to not practice handflying skills is total crap.

My doctor isn’t going to show up to the plane not knowing well beforehand that his “newer/safer” equipment is inop for that surgery. So you’re comparing apples to oranges.
