MD-11 Free Text – Lat/Long • Free Text • Word Wraps • Handles 256 characters • 84 Displayed in picture • Lat/Long • Can handle up to 40 Lat/Longs on a RTE of Flight
MD-11 Findings • Pegasus Platform circa 2000’ • Can accept all DCL clearances • MD-11 Exception: UM80/83 • Any RTE clearance ending in an “Airway” to an Arrival Transition Fix creates a RTE Discontinuity after the Arrival Transition Fix • Flight Crew Procedures Corrects the RTE page MCB • Discontinuity CEW SZW J50 J2 KMIA SSCOT1.SZW

Action Items • Flight Crew Request for DCL • Demand or Push • Update on “Time” when DCL is available • Impact of 30min vs. 45min DCL availability • AOC discussion • Flt Planning • FMS Uplinks (Wind, T/O, Perf) • Lat/Long Airbus/Boeing • DP and RWY discussion • End2End discussion
